Using Pinnacle21 community v 2.2.0 I'm receiving Missing required 'SASFieldName' value for 'ItemDef' but on the very lines specified in the details, the define.xml file has an ItemDef with a value specified for the SASFieldName attribute. A sample line is:

<ItemDef OID="IT.PC.PCORRES.QT3191621" Name="QT3191621" DataType="float" Length="16" SASFieldName="QT3191621" SignificantDigits="11" def:DisplayFormat="19.11">

Forums: Define.xml

Hi William, 

Your SASFieldName is longer than 8 characters and exceeds a limitation of SAS XPORT v5 variable naming convention.

Kind Regards, 

Sergiy

In this case, the error message is wrong / misleading.
It should be something like:
"QT3191621" is not a valid SAS Transport 5 Name
