sending emails from sas using macro and mulipe if statements

Yonichen73 — Sun, 06 Jan 2019 09:45:41 GMT

hey everybody,

I would like to send an email with multiple files and I am trying to do that with "macro"
the email should be send according to the time of the year.
for example I have some files that should be send once in a quarter and other file once in a half year;

this is my code:

data _null_;
dt=intnx('month',date(),0,'S');
ind=month(dt);
if ind in (3,5,9,11) then the_run='Dual';
if ind in(4,10) then the_run='Quarterly';
if ind in (1,7) then the_run='hdq';
call symput('the_run',the_run);
run;

%put &the_run.;


%macro emailm;
%if "&the_run."="hdq" %then %do; 
filename TestR email to = ("jonathan.chen@poalim.co.il") 
SUBJECT=" %SYSFUNC(date(), YYMMdd10.)צ'ק ליסט דו חודשי לתאריך "
type='text/html'
attach=("&path\SHOTEF_MNG_SNIF_MNG_PRATIT_&the_month&format" content_type="application/xlsx"
"&path\CHECK_LIST_CONNECT_&the_month&format" content_type="application/xlsx") 
encoding='whebrew';

data _null_;
file TestR;
run;
%end;
%else %if "&the_run."="Quarterly" %then %do;
/*שליחת קבצים של הרצה רבעונית*/
filename TestR email to = ("jonathan.chen@poalim.co.il")
cc= ("jonathan.chen@poalim.co.il")
SUBJECT=" %SYSFUNC(date(), YYMMdd10.)צ'ק ליסט רבעוני לתאריך "
type='text/html'
attach=("&path\CHECK_LIST_PLAT_&the_month&format" content_type="application/xlsx"
"&path\CHECK_LIST_CONNECT_&the_month&format" content_type="application/xlsx") 
encoding='whebrew';

data _null_;
file TestR;
run;
%end;
%else %if "&the_run."="Dual" %then %do;
/*שליחת קבצים של הרצה חצי שנתית*/
filename TestR email to = ("jonathan.chen@poalim.co.il") 
SUBJECT=" %SYSFUNC(date(), YYMMdd10.)צ'ק ליסט חצי שנתי לתאריך "
type='text/html'
attach=("&path\SHOTEF_CONS_MNG_AREA_MNG_PRATIT_&the_month&format" content_type="application/xlsx") 
encoding='whebrew';

data _null_;
file TestR;
run;
%end;

%mend;
%emailm;

Looks to me like none of your %if conditions is fulfilled. Inspect macro variable the_run.

hi.

thanks for the quick answer.

the_run macro gets:'hdq' because the month is 1 (January) and I was checking that with %put &the_run.;
and then I got: hdq

Your log does not show the %put, so it might have run in a different context.

Your data _null_ that sets the macro variable is faulty; see Maxim 47 (Quarterly will be shortened to Quar).

Additionally, use call symputx (which removes trailing blanks from values), or omit the double quotes in the %if conditions. In macro language, "hdt" is different from "hdt ".
