Create a graph in SAS from a data set with 3 variables

Abelp9 — Thu, 10 Mar 2022 16:54:44 GMT

Hello everyone, I am trying to get a graph in a pdf in SAS from a table with 3 columns, the first ("fecha") has the type date: 10MAR22, 09MAR22, etc. the second column ("Rango_horas") has two values, "OFF-WORK" and "WORK", so each date value will be duplicated, 10MAR22 will have "OFF-WORK" and "WORK", and the last column (" AVG") has the average % of cpu used, i.e. a number.

I would like to make a bar graph showing the different dates and the value that AVG has for OFF-WORK and WORK for each of the dates.

I have this code:

ODS pdf file = '/xx/xx/xx/Namepdf.pdf';
Axis1
	STYLE=1
	WIDTH=1
	MINOR=NONE
	LABEL=(   "%CPU")
	ORDER=(0 TO 100 BY 10)

;
Axis2
	STYLE=1
	WIDTH=1
	LABEL=(   "Fecha")
  VALUE=NONE
;
TITLE;
TITLE1 "TEST";
FOOTNOTE;



PROC GCHART DATA=WORK.QUERY_FOR_TEST1
;
	VBAR 
	 fecha
 /
	CLIPREF
		SPACE=15
FRAME	TYPE=SUM
	COUTLINE=BLACK
	RAXIS=AXIS1
	MAXIS=AXIS2
	LREF=4
	CREF=LTGRAY
	AUTOREF
;
/* -------------------------------------------------------------------
   End of task code
   ------------------------------------------------------------------- */
RUN; QUIT;
TITLE; FOOTNOTE;

When I run this it adds the avg values of offwork and work, it does not distinguish the "Rango_horas" column and it creates a column for each date, I would like to see 2 columns for each date value. Would this be possible?

Thank you very much in advance

proc sgplot dta=have;
vbar date / response=avg group=rango_horas groupdisplay=cluster;
run;

Highly recommend SGPLOT instead of GCHART/GPLOT.

I think you're looking for the clustered bar chart (first image)

Strongly agree with @Reeza that moving to SGPLOT is the way to go.

Gchart would require a Group=variablename and likely a GAXIS statement for "groups" to display. And possibly a Subgroup=variable
