Problem Note 67733: An incorrect value is displayed for a date variable after you export a rule set or decision in SAS® Intelligent Decisioning
 |  |  |  |  |
In SAS Intelligent Decisioning, you can assign an initial value for a date variable for the rule set and decisions. After you export the rule set and the decision, you might observe that the initial value of the date variable in the CSV or JSON file is one day earlier than the actual assigned Value in the UI. This problem occurs only with the date variable; it does not occur with the the datetime variable.
You do not receive any error, warning, or note messages to indicate that a problem occurred.
When the problem occurs, the incorrect date is shown in the exported CSV file, as shown in this example:
date_17nov20,,date,inOut,,"desc Nov 17, 2020","Nov 16, 2020"
datetime_17nov20,,datetime,inOut,,"desc Nov 17, 2020","Nov 17, 2020 10:25 AM"
The incorrect date is also shown in the exported JSON file, as shown in this example:
{
"name": "date_17nov20",
"dataType": "date",
"description": "desc Nov 17, 2020",
"direction": "inOut",
"defaultValue": "Nov 16, 2020"
},
You can correct the problem either by editing the exported file after the export process or by editing the Edit Variables dialog box after the import process.
