Hi @ahmed_00 

 

'myanalytics' is not a valid library name.

Naming conventions are described here:

https://documentation.sas.com/?docsetId=lrcon&docsetTarget=p18cdcs4v5wd2dn1q0x296d3qek6.htm&docsetV...

In particular, the maximum length for libraries is 8 bytes -> so, 'myanalys' would work for example.

Best,
