Proc Upload Error - Procedure UPLOAD not found

sasifried — Tue, 15 Feb 2022 16:19:01 GMT

When attempting to run PROC UPLOAD, am receiving "Procedure UPLOAD not found". Is there some component or licensing required for this?

Thanks

PROC UPLOAD falls under the SAS CONNECT module which does require a license and installation.

Check your license with:

proc setinit;run;

Check what's installed with:

proc product_status;run;

PROC UPLOAD is part of SAS/CONNECT, which is designed for a client SAS session to send data to a remote SAS session on another server.

Is that your situation? If you're using SAS Studio, then you need to use the Upload tools within SAS Studio send files via your browser. If using SAS Enterprise Guide, you can use the Copy Files task (for any files) or the Upload SAS Data Sets task (for data sets only) to transfer files from your PC to the remote SAS session.

Thanks very much Chris! Yes, we'd like to transfer files from the PC Base SAS to a zOS SAS 9.4 system.

Thanks

If you have PC SAS and SAS on z/OS, then chances are good that you do have a SAS/CONNECT license in your organization. The missing piece might be that SAS/CONNECT client wasn't installed on your local PC instance of SAS.
