SAS VA 7.5 metadata location of report data?

BerryH — Mon, 03 Aug 2020 11:38:08 GMT

Hi,

We've moved from SAS VA 7.4 to SAS VA 7.5. I thought it was possible in 7.4 to directly see the metadata location of a used data table in a report in edit mode. In 7.5 I don't see this possibility (see screenshot of report in edit mode where I would expect to see the metadata location of the report data).

Does anyone know if this is (still) possible in SAS VA 7.5 or that something has changed from 7.4 to 7.5?

Thank you!

Regards,

Berry

The metadata location is visible when you change or add a data source. You would have to click this icon next to the drop-down list.

Thank you for your reply! Unfortunately when I add or change the data source I don't see the metadata location of the specified table. Instead, I see a list of all possible tables that are available to me. See attached screenshot.

Yes, you will have to scroll or filter to find the table. There is not a way to see the metadata location for just the table in the report.
