Problem Note 64837: An exception might be generated when you create a regional promotion in SAS® Promotion Optimization
 |  |  |  |  |
In SAS Promotion Optimization, an exception might occur when a promotion is copied and a regional promotion is created. This issue is likely to occur when you copy a promotion that has been migrated from an earlier version of SAS Promotion Optimization. The following error occurs in the SASMerchIntelMidTier5.41.log file:
FATAL main java.lang.StackTraceElement - Failed to execute runnable (java.lang.NullPointerException)org.eclipse.swt.SWTException: Failed to execute runnable (java.lang.NullPointerException)
The workaround for this issue is to not copy promotions that might have been migrated, but to create new promotions instead.
