output functional summary to dataset

bla33333333 — Fri, 31 Jul 2015 11:56:38 GMT

Hello all

I'm looking for a way to store the summary of the solution of a proc optmodel in a dataset. For instance if the solution is optimal, feasible or unfeasible.

What statement do I use for storing this information in a dataset as well?

Thanks!

If you want the whole Solution Summary in a data set, you can use the ODS OUTPUT statement, as shown here:

SAS/OR(R) 14.1 User's Guide: Mathematical Programming

If you just want certain parts, you can use, for example, _SOLUTION_STATUS_ or _OROPTMODEL_NUM_['SOLUTION_STATUS'], as described in the "Solver Status Parameters" section here:

SAS/OR(R) 14.1 User's Guide: Mathematical Programming

You can use the CREATE DATA statement to generate a data set that contains whatever you want:

Thanks for your quick response. I did not expect it to be in macro variables as it is possible to output the solution to a dataset.
