Determine flow references

Loko — Wed, 11 Mar 2015 15:17:02 GMT

Dear All,

For the attached tab-delimited file I need to determine the process flow of the active processes.

To identify the active process the condition is missing(datef)=1.

For example Process 682 is active and it comes from 634. BUT 632 is opened and closed in the current month
(datas_ini = 2JAN2015 and datef_ini=5JAN2015). Therefore we have to look back at 632 and determine where it comes from.
632 comes from 447, 510, 559. BUT since 510 is opened and closed in the current month it is ignored.
Eventually the correct result is 682-447 and 682-559.

The code I have build does not work for all the cases.

Let's take process no 9. 9 comes from 7.
BUT 7 is opened and closed in the current month.
Looking back at 7 we see that 7 comes from 3, 5, 6.
Since 3 is closed we look back at it and notice that 3 comes from 4.
4 is closed - we look back at it and we notice that 4 comes from 44.
Therefore 7 comes from 44.
BUT 7 also comes from 5 and 6 since those processes are active.
Unfortunately the codes does not write to output - 7-44, 7-5 and 7-6. It only writes 7-44.

The correspondence of the variables is ky-process-datef-datas and ky_ini_ini-process_ini-datef_ini-datas_ini.

Here is my code:

%let &data_lun_ant="31DEC2015"d;

data want ;

length ky_ini_hsh $ 30;
if 0 then set have;

if _n_ eq 1 then do;
CALL MISSING(process_ini_hsh,datas_ini_hsh,datef_ini_hsh);
call missing(ky_ini_hsh);
declare hash ir(dataset:"have(rename=(process_ini=process_ini_hsh
datas_ini=datas_ini_hsh datef_ini=datef_ini_hsh ky_ini=ky_ini_hsh
) where=(datas gt &data_lun_ant and datef gt &data_lun_ant))", multidata:'Y');
ir.definekey('ky');
ir.definedata('process_ini_hsh','datas_ini_hsh', 'datef_ini_hsh', 'ky_ini_hsh');
ir.definedone();

end;

set have(where=(missing(datef)=1));

if datas_ini gt &data_lun_ant and datef_ini gt &data_lun_ant then
do;

rc=ir.find(key:ky_ini);
do while (rc=0);
if datas_ini_hsh gt &data_lun_ant and datef_ini_hsh gt &data_lun_ant then
do;

_ky_ini_hsh=ky_ini_hsh;
_ky_ini=ky_ini;
rc1=ir.find_next(key:_ky_ini);
rc=ir.find(key:_ky_ini_hsh);
if rc1=0 then rc=0;
end;
else do;
   conne=catx('-',process,process_ini_hsh);
   output;
   rc=ir.find_next(key:ky_ini);
end;
end;
end;

else do;conne=catx('-',process,process_ini);output;end;

run;

Hello,

Yes I know it is difficult to explain

But your code works almost perfectly.

The only problem is with 10-1, 11-1, 13-1 from the final output.

This connection should not exist since 1 has been closed in the month (datas - datas_ini in JANUARY).

That is what I am confused with .

You said " is opened and closed in the current month (datas_ini = 2JAN2015 and datef_ini=5JAN2015)"

But

LC3 LC4 3 4 02/01/2015 02/01/2015 01/02/2015 02/01/2015

LC7 LC3 7 3 02/01/2015 02/01/2015 01/02/2015 02/01/2015

Their month are not the same, while you still get rid of them , that is right ?

"This connection should not exist since 1 has been closed in the month (datas - datas_ini in JANUARY)."

That is not ture. Base on your data , datef_ini is missing value .

LC1 LC1112 1 1112 02/01/2015 02/01/2015 . .

LC2 LC1112 2 1112 . . . .

LC10 LC1 10 1 . 02/01/2015 02/01/2015 .

LC11 LC1 11 1 . 02/01/2015 02/01/2015 .

LC13 LC1 13 1 . 02/01/2015 02/01/2015 .

You are right. When I have built the dataset example I have mistyped date values for that sequence.

datas_ini and datef_ini should have been in the same month for process 1.

I have changed the values in the example, and the code gives the expected results.

Ksharp — Fri, 13 Mar 2015 09:39:38 GMT

Oh. If their month should be the same. You also need to change my code :

if not missing(datas_ini) and not missing(datef_ini) then flag='*';

-->

if month(datas_ini) = month(datef_ini) then flag='*';
