When you add a channel by using SAS^® Customer Intelligence Utilities, the channel is added. However, SAS Customer Intelligence Studio does not display the correct channel name. Instead, the channel name for another existing channel is displayed, as shown below:

This problem happens when the channel that you add has the same channel code as an existing channel code, with the exception of the underscore prefix. The following example shows what happens when you add a new channel called AG Channel and you use an existing channel code without the prefix. Notice the internal channel ID (_id) is one of an existing channel code.

To work around this problem, avoid using an existing channel code.
