Syntax Error Using SAS EG Prompt GUI in a Filtered Query

[CJamison]

I have a computed column (PUTMONTHTEST) that is the basis for a prompt (Prompt_3) asking the user for the month (i.e. November) to use in a filter, but it results in a NOTE and and ERROR (see code). I've produced all code using GUIs and tried a number of things to resolve/understand what's going on but I need some help.

		 ;*';*";*/;quit;run;
		OPTIONS PAGENO=MIN;
		%LET Prompt_1 = DEPT1;
		%LET Prompt_10 = 3;
		%LET Prompt_11 = DEPT1;
		%LET Prompt_12 = DEPT2;
		%LET Prompt_13 = DEPT3;
		%LET Prompt_1_count = 3;
		%LET Prompt_3 = November;

	PROC SQL NOEXEC;
		SELECT 	t1.COLUMN_1,
                 	t1.COLUMN_2,
                 	t1.DATE_1,
                 	t1.PUTMONTH,
              FROM WORK.APPEND_TABLE_0000 t1
              WHERE %_eg_WhereParam( t1.COLUMN_1, Prompt_1, IN, TYPE=S, IS_EXPLICIT=0 ) AND %_eg_WhereParam(
                    t1.PUTMONTH, Prompt_3, IN, TYPE=S, IS_EXPLICIT=0 )

             "November"
                
ERROR 22-322: Syntax error, expecting one of the following: (, SELECT.  

ERROR 76-322: Syntax error, statement will be ignored.

  		ORDER BY t1.COLUMN_1;
	QUIT;

	%SYMDEL Prompt_1;
	%SYMDEL Prompt_10;
	%SYMDEL Prompt_11;
	%SYMDEL Prompt_12;
	%SYMDEL Prompt_13;
	%SYMDEL Prompt_1_count;
	%SYMDEL Prompt_3;
   
	QUIT; RUN;

As a workaround, I figured out that if I change the "Number of values:" field, on the Prompt Type and Values tab of the Edit Prompt window, to "Multiple values", rather than "Single value", then I don't receive the syntax error. For my purposes this is an acceptable fix since I don't need to limit the user to a single value. However, why this error exists for "signal value" prompt types still needs to be resolved.

Hi,

I see the error in the SQL

There must not be ',' after  t1.PUTMONTH

Kind regards
