Usage Note 20336: Calculated name cannot be a subset of an existing calculated name
 |  |  |  |  |
With SPD Server, you cannot have a calculated name that is a subset of an existing calculated name. The comparison does not take length into account, and this may cause the subset to match the wrong name.
For example:
proc sql;
connect to sasspds(dbq='tmp' server=localhost.5127 user='anonymous');
execute(reset _plan _tree _method)by sasspds;
select * from connection to sasspds(
select BRAND,
EXTRACT_DATE,
sum(case when FRL_DELINQ_THIS_MONTH='GOOD' then NUMBER_ACCOUNTS
else 0
end) as GOOD,
sum(case when FRL_DELINQ_THIS_MONTH='GOOD' and
FRL_DELINQ_1MONTH_ON='CLASSIFIED' then NUMBER_ACCOUNTS
else 0
end) as GOOD_TO_CLASSIFIED,
(calculated GOOD) as DENOMINATOR,
(calculated GOOD_TO_CLASSIFIED) as NUMERATOR from Sample
group by BRAND,
EXTRACT_DATE);
quit;
In this example, GOOD is a subset of GOOD_TO_CLASSIFIED. The comparison is incorrectly comparing the 4-character string GOOD.
