Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Many users will be moving from 9.4 where they have used coding practices that worked for many years. Some of those coding practices do not correctly support multi-byte characters or display data that is correct for the users locale. Results may range from unsatisfactory output to corrupted character data.

Describe the solution you'd like
Provide an assistant in SAS Viya Copilot that will:

  • Explain where to make code changes to improve the results.
  • Assist the user with updating code to expand format/informat lengths.
  • Suggest substitutions for string functions that do not support character semantics.
  • Also suggest substitutions for date, time, number, and currency formats that would create output that displays results according to the SAS LOCALE.

Describe alternatives you've considered
