VA Report Example: Use a pop-up page to link to additional detail
Recent Library Articles
Recently in the SAS Community Library: SAS' @TeriPatsilaras shows you how to design a pop-up page in SAS Visual Analytics to show more detail, such as category and measure data items.
I have multiple Macro Variable Assignment Lines, such as below.
%let wtcalc1= abs(a/b-1)*weight;
%let wtcalc2=(abs(a/b+c*0.2)*weight;
%let wtcalc3=(abs(a/b+c*0.4)*weight;
Appearantly direct assignment does not work, such as below, with ot without " ".
%let logicx="%let wtcalc1= abs(a/b-1)*weight;
%let wtcalc2=(abs(a/b+c*0.2)*weight;
%let wtcalc3=(abs(a/b+c*0.4)*weight;";
How to make it work, to assign into a single macro variable/line?!
In case why I am doing this? I need put 'em into one line/macro variable and then attach it
to the output dataset. That allows me backtrack what logic indeed is used.
Thanks,

Imagine a future where utilities, energy traders, and planners can anticipate electricity demand, renewable generation, and market prices with exceptional precision. That future is already here with SAS Energy Forecasting Cloud, also known as EFC.
EFC is built on trusted GLM-based models and now operates on a cloud-native architecture. It delivers scalable, automated, and highly accurate forecasts, making advanced analytics available to a broader audience.
What Sets EFC Apart
Cost Savings: A one percent improvement in forecast accuracy can lead to hundreds of thousands of dollars in annual savings for utilities.
Efficiency: EFC simplifies data integration and automates model creation. This helps teams avoid duplication and make faster, more informed decisions.
Flexibility: EFC supports a wide variety of data sources and modeling approaches, including statistical methods and deep learning. It integrates smoothly into existing business processes.
Who Gains the Most?
Organizations that depend on reliable forecasts for operational and financial decisions—such as utilities, energy traders, and planners—benefit from a consistent and scalable solution. Partners can quickly launch pilots and demonstrations without needing a team of forecasting specialists.

Is there a way to put a text box at the beginning of the analysis in the output window in SAS EG (report or html windows)? I do not want to save the results to an html or pdf file using ODS but I want it to go to the output window, and if needed I would like to save the output myself. I do not want it occupying the entire page.
I use the following code and it works fine but the font is too small. Is there a way to change the font or an easier way to do it that does not require too many lines of code. Sample code attached below.
data _null_;
file print;
line1="Data : aaa";
line2="Years of study: xxx";
line3="Outcomes: BBB";
put #1 line1 10-35 #2 line2 10-35 #3 line3 10-35;
file log;
run;

In my current graduate school course, we're using SAS Enterprise Guide on Demand for Academics. I downloaded the software this morning following the video walkthrough, but I'm concerned about whether there are costs associated with using it. How can I tell if using Enterprise Guide, working on the school assignment, is not going to incur costs for using the software? Evidently, the school has a partnership since I completed the enrollment through SAS using the school-provided registration key number for the course I'm taking.

Hi everyone, I’m currently working on a SAS DI migration project from SAS to Azure. The environment contains around 590 SAS DI jobs, which are used to create about 55 datamarts. The challenge is that I have only read access to the SAS environment — no data access. I’d like to ask for suggestions on the best approach to handle this kind of project: Should I go through each job individually to identify impact analysis logic, dependencies, and mappings, then document everything manually in Excel? Or is there any better or more automated approach to extract and analyze SAS DI job logic and dependencies efficiently? What are the best practices or steps to follow for SAS DI to Azure migration. Any guidance, tools, or practical tips from your experience would be greatly appreciated.
