First, you are asking for SQL Server guidance, that is better searched for elsewhere.

Second, those are macro calls. You need to find and look into those macro definition to see what they mean.

Sounds like you are migrating a SAS application to SQL Server, so perhaps the SAS community might have mixed feelings about helping you out... 😉

I only do when it's for free, if I'm being paid then it's fine

Hire a SAS/SQL consultant to do the work.

But I'm pretty sure someone else will answer the question as well.
