I am assigning value to one macro variable but while using that macro variable value I am getting error below. Can you please help.

 

ERROR: Attribute '202206' not found 

%put yearmonth --> &yrmonth;

	select max(yearmonth) into :  yrmonth from source_data;
quit;

There's no asterisk in the SQL DELETE statement:

proc sql;
  delete from target_data
  where yearmonth= &yrmonth.;
quit;

To resolve the issue, you can modify your data selection to include data that uses that attribute, or you can remove the data attribute from your template.
