Proc Report and Group Percentages

Tinker_ — Tue, 12 Sep 2017 07:48:09 GMT

Hi,

Can I please get some help with this.

The Destination Table contains a list of customers who holidayed last year to DESTINATION Europe, or remained in NZ for their holidays. A customer may have had holidays in both Europe and NZ. The layout for the table is shown below:

I would like to create a report that shows the precentage of customers, who went to Europe last year, but based on Customer_Age:

20 – 29, 30 –39, 40 – 49, 50+.

And the report should only show the Age Range and the Percentage of Customers who went to Europe for their holiday.

How can I implement an Age_Range in this report? Would I be right to do it with

PROC FORMAT?

Something like:

Proc format ;

value Customer_Age;

18 - 29 = ' Age Range 20 – 29’

30 - 44 = ' Age Range 30-39'

45 - 59 = ' Age Range 40 49'

60 - high = ' Age Range 50+';

run;

and then I would start like below, but I am not sure how to link my Age Range . I thought the Proc format creates the Group that I can define and analyse using a computing block. But I am not really sure how it connects.

Help much appreciated

Proc Report Data = Holiday

headline headskip;

title1 "Customer Holiday Report";

COLUMN CUSTOMER_AGE('_Destination_' Destination = pct);

DEFINE CUSTOMER_AGE /GROUP FORMAT=8. ;

DEFINE pct /GROUP FORMAT=8. FORMAT=PERCENT8. ;

RBREAK AFTER /SUMMARIZE UL OL; RUN;

CUSTOMER_NUMBER	CUSTOMER_AGE	DESTINATION
123	27	NZ
123	27	Europe
124	42	Europe
125	33	NZ
126	45	Europe
127	60	NZ
128	45	Europe
129	62	Europe
130	33	Europe
131	58	Europe
132	34	Europe
133	49	Europe
133	49	NZ
134	33	Europe
135	45	NZ
136	60	NZ
137	45	NZ
138	62	NZ
139	33	NZ
140	45	Europe
141	60	Europe
142	45	Europe
143	62	Europe
144	33	Europe

Why not do a simple proc sql group by, then proc report that?

I looked itno Proc means, which basically gives me the perecentages.

I don't quite understand how to link that to proc report.

You can create a dataset from your proc means:

proc means...;
 ...
  output out=want...;
run;

proc report data=want...;
...
