Postcode not working when the DIS job failes

[Babloo]

I've the post code in DIS Job which calls the .sas file via %INCLUDE Statement. It (post code) is working fine when DIS Job ends with success or warning. However it is not working when the DIS Job Fails and I could see the WARNING as follows. I'm not certain why I'm getting the WARNING only when DIS Job fails.

.sas file which was being called in INCLUDE Statement is not taking any value from the final table which was being created from the DIS Job. May I know how to resolve this issue when the DIS Job failes?

818        
819        %INCLUDE "/var/sasdata/ifr/SASCode/distudio/metadata_info.sas";

The default behaviour is that no statements are executed in a SAS session when an error occurs.

Do you really need to execute your %include program when a job fails?

Please describe your requirement so we may can come up with an alternative approach.

Yes, I really want to execute INCLUDE statements even when the job fails.

Whether I have to place the INCLUDE statement in some other place or can I
wrap up my .sas file which was being called in the INCLUDE statement and
call that macro in some portion of the job?

Hi @Babloo 

This is not tested, but I guess it could be solved by adding  

option NOSYNTAXCHECK ;

as the first line in your includecode.
