Core data model SAS AML

[upadhi]

Want to understand if it better to use existing data fields in core data model and change the length defined or we should create new column
Example, for amount transaction the precision set in AML is 18,5
But client wants it to be 15 decimal places

Second address field, client wants it to be 255 char
While In AML it is 100 char

So in above cases, what is recommended, we add new field or we change the data length of existing fields

We are using SAS AML 7.1

Numbers accurate to 15 decimal places are not possible in SAS. The maximum precision is 15 digits in total:

Why does your customer want this many?

Regarding increasing the second address field. I suggest you raise a Tech Support track for that. AML documentation is not publicly available so community users can't check it out for you. Only AML customers can.
