ERROR: Expression using IN has components that are of different data types.

[Kurt_Bremser]

The message says it all.

To get real help, post the log (step and messages), and information about the data involved. Output from proc contents comes to mind.

[gamotte]

SAS has two data types : character and numeric.When making a comparison, the variable has to be of the same

type than your list of values.

[LinusH]

I'm going out on a limb here, but my guess is that wr_no is numeric, which you can't compare to character constants.

For the second error, it seems like you are mixing SAS and non SAS SQL function.

Date function will give you today's date.

There are two other ways to accomplish your task in SAS:

• Use SAS date constants using the d literal: '01Dec2016'd. The no need to tamper with your date column.
• Use put(status_date,yymmdd10.) to make you date column comparable to your date style constants. I would say that this is the least preferable option from a performance perspective at least.

[nid197]

i had already tried your solution ie. '01Dec2016'd but it is still not working.

and wr_no error has occured just after i had used the date condition earlier it was working fine by extracting the required data. 

[RW9]

It is quite clear from the text you give from the log:

72 where a.WR_NO in
73 ('1300085728','1300001528','1300001828','1300002528','1300002728')
ERROR: Expression using IN has components that are of different data types.

This error is telling you that the varible - and this might be key as in the select you take C.wr_no - that A.wr_no is numeric and the in list you give is character, therefore it cannot compare.  Maye you meant to use c.wr_no for this if that is character, or may you need put(a.wr_no,best.) in().

74 and date(input(status_date,10.)) between '2016-12-01' and '2016-12-31'

WARNING: Function DATE requires at most 0 argument(s). The extra one(s) will be ignored.

The above warning is telling you that SAS has a function called date(), and that that function does not have any parameters - all it does it to return todays date.  You are mixing this up with a database function called date() which probably converts text to date values.  To do this calculation you need to use SAS functions:

and input(status_date,yymmdd10.) between '01DEC2016'd and '31DEC2016'd
