Create a date variable in a sas dataset

[foxrol94]

Hi, 

I have some trouble cause i would like to create a date variable dat in a sas dataset and i'm doing lke this:

%let date_traitement=%sysfunc(intnx(month, %sysfunc(today()),-1,e), ddmmyyn8.);
%put NOTE: DATE de Traitement ====> &date_traitement.;
data test;
	set sashelp.Prdsal2;
	date0= put(input(&date_traitement.,ddmmyy10.), ddmmyy10.);
run;

Dateset is created but the variable dat have values 3101202 instead of 31012018. I'm a bit confused.

Thnaks for your support

Try put &date between quotes:

"&date_traitement."
