User does not have appropriate authorization level for library

Could someone guide me to overcome this error? I ran this code in SAS EG 6.1 and it is connected to UNIX server.

147        proc sql ;
148        
149        create table sasuser.&outfile as
150        select
151        	mclu,
152        	barcode,
153        	cluster_num,
154        	cluster_name,
155        	offer_category,
156        	cost,
157        	units,
158        	bar_code,
159            mclu_code,
160            start_date,
161            stop_date,
162            expire_date
163        from
164         	plan_scrubbed
165        order by mclu
166        ;
ERROR: User does not have appropriate authorization level for library SASUSER.

Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Run the this code

libname sasuser list;

It will give some details on SASUSER including the permission settings. this will explain the error you get.

Whether you can change the permission for the directory, this depends on the setup.

I think that SAS intelligence server default is setup with the -rsasuser option set.

talk to your SAS server admin to see if that can be changed, or perhaps you could be given an alternative permanent libref to store your personal results.
