Extra comma at the end. 🙂

PROC SQL;
CREATE TABLE in.AAAA as
SELECT Client AS IDNumber, CIDNumber AS au_IDNumber, . as Emp, BN871, BN562, BN123, BN346, . as MT111, . as MT112, . as MT113, . as MT114, D_host, AXZ_host, TJD_AG
FROM in.PME_SDC;
QUIT;

/*Now try*/

. as Emp

means "assign a missing numerical value to newly created variable Emp".
