In SAS Data Integration Studio, which statement is FALSE regarding status handling?

Question

Options

• AWhen a job is executed in SAS Data Integration Studio, a return code for each transformation in
• BIf status handling has been defined for a transformation or the job, a macro definition (and a call
• COnly one Condition/Action pair can be defined for a single transformation or for a job.
• DThe available Condition/Action pairs for transformations and jobs will vary - that is, different

• A
  2% (1)
• B
  4% (2)
• C
  92% (44)
• D
  2% (1)

Explanation

Option C is false because SAS Data Integration Studio allows you to define multiple Condition/Action pairs for a single transformation or job - not just one. This flexibility lets developers handle different return code scenarios with different actions (e.g., abort on one condition, warn on another, continue on a third).

Why the distractors are true (and therefore not the answer):

• A is true: SAS DI Studio does generate a return code for each transformation during job execution, which feeds into status handling logic.
• B is true: When status handling is configured, SAS generates a macro definition and a corresponding macro call to implement the defined behavior at runtime.
• D is true: The available Condition/Action options differ between transformations and jobs - not all actions are available in every context, so the menus vary accordingly.

Memory tip: Think of Condition/Action pairs like if/else if chains - you almost always need more than one to handle the range of things that can go wrong. If SAS limited you to a single pair, half your error-handling scenarios would be unaddressed. "One pair" = FALSE.
