The output table that is created by the SCORE statement in PROC ASTORE (like the code that is shown below) might not have the correct ID variable.

This problem occurs in either of these scenarios:

• An ASTORE file is created by the HPFOREST procedure, and the store is created with an ID variable.
• An ASTORE file is created by the HPSVM procedure, and the store is created with an ID variable.

In addition, the problem happens when the variables for the input table that is being scored are in a different order than the order in the data that is used to train the model.

To work around this issue, you can perform either of the following modifications:

• Modify your score input table and make sure that the variable order is the same as the one in the training table. 
• Add the COPYVARS=() option to the SCORE statement, as shown below. You need to specify a variable that is not the ID variable.
