The below data frame has 3 rows that the end of 2 rows are NA and "", the output xpt file only keeps the first non missing rows.

whether this case is normal or how to keep all 3 rows

  df <- data.frame(a = c("a", NA, ""))

  df2 <- haven::write_xpt(df, "test.xpt")

  identical(df, df2)
#> [1] TRUE

  df3 <- haven::read_xpt("test.xpt")
  
  df3
#> # A tibble: 1 × 1
#>   a    
#>   <chr>
#> 1 a

  identical(df, df3)
#> [1] FALSE
