Enhanced error messaging when loading external data sources to the input node, specifically SAS datasets with data issues

Currently, there is little to no error messaging given for loading data from SAS datasets containing data that is unable to load. In our case, a SAS dataset dimply fails with no message regarding a large dataset with a single row containing data t...
