Hello,

I have a problem.

 

I have a FACT_Table (Phisical Name: fact) table of type SAS DATA with a column
Name: date Format: date9.

 

I have a FACT_Table_VA (Phisical Name: fact) table of type SAS LASR with a
Name: date Format: date9.

 

I created a job to load the table to SAS VA:

 

FACT_Table -> SAS LASR Analytic Server Loader -> FACT_Table_VA


Problem:
When I run the Job the Table of fact_VA stays with the field
Name: date with the format changed.

new Format: BEST12.


Has anyone had this problem? Any tips?

Hello, Did you solve this issue. As I have table join and extract in SAS DIS followed by an upload to SAS VA. The initial SAS Data table is correct, but the VA table losses the SQL statements I applied at the extract step and is incorrect.
