Numbering rows according to certain rule

lioradam — Sun, 06 Nov 2022 11:13:15 GMT

Hello,

I have the attached data set, in which the first 5 variables are part of the data set and the last variable, "year_of_tenure", is the variable I want to calculate through SAS code.

The variable "year_start01" is the year the tenure starts

The variable "year_end01" is the year the tenure ends

The variable "year" include several years within this tenure range. This variable doesn't include all the years of the tenure. I would like to calculate the variable "year_of_tenure", so if for example "year_start01" is 2000, then near the year "2001" the "year_of_tenure" will be 2.

Thanks in advance,

Lior

data want;
set year_of_tenure;
by gvkey01;
retain start;
if first.gvkey01 then start = year_start01;
year_of_tenure = year - start + 1;
drop start;
run;
