How can I save the output data from a SAS code step so that it can be used as input in the next node

I can save it to a table, but what I want is to continue using the new dataset as a input in the next node for machine learning.

To save the results of a printing procedure to a dataset, use ODS OUTPUT

Thank you for ur reply

I tried it in the SAS Code under Build Models

data CASUSER.OVERSAMPLED;
set &dm_output_data;
ods output OVERSAMPLED;
ods output table=OVERSAMPLED;
run;

However, the "output data table" is not being updated in the new dataset , please advise.

A DATA step does not produce output, it already creates a dataset. Just use that in the next step.
