Using the SAS Customer Intelligence plug-in for the SAS
® Management Console to edit a campaign event can overwrite the campaign's process node input variable names. It can change some or all of the input variable names to be the name of the event.
If you receive this error when validating a campaign in Customer Intelligence Studio, check the properties for each of the campaign's process nodes. Correct any input variable names that have been incorrectly overwritten.
