Re: SAS VA - How to add arrows as indicator for adding growth and downgrowth average

There are multiple suggestions in a previous thread on this topic, including using display rules. Here is one solution that uses a calculation.

Re: How to add download option in SAS Visual Analytics chart?

Visual Analytics does enable you to download data from objects such as graphs. See

Re: Unable to open report in SAS VA : An error was encountered loading the report

Madelyn_SAS — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 20:53:54 GMT

It is difficult to tell what the problem could be just from that error. Was the report exported into a JSON package from a different environment? Is that environment the same or a lower version than the one you are importing it into? Were there any errors when exporting the report? Did the report work correctly in its original environment?

Re: Bar chart 3 measures with different axis y scales

Madelyn_SAS — Wed, 26 Mar 2025 20:21:18 GMT

For your bar chart, the only other option would be to set a fixed Y axis so that you can accommodate the measure with the lowest values.

Re: Bar chart 3 measures with different axis y scales

Madelyn_SAS — Wed, 26 Mar 2025 20:09:04 GMT

UPDATE: Researching a bit more, the log scale is available in Viya 4 for these graphs:

A new Logarithmic scale option is available for scatter plots, time series plots, line charts, forecasting objects, and numeric series plots.

Prior to that, only normalization is available.

Visual Analytics definitely enables you to create a heatmap

Re: Unable to Reload or Unload preloaded tables in VA

Madelyn_SAS — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 19:19:45 GMT

You would need to find out why they are not being autoloaded as expected. Information about the autoload process is here

Autoload

Re: Unable to Reload or Unload preloaded tables in VA

Madelyn_SAS — Wed, 12 Mar 2025 18:14:54 GMT

The table you have selected is autoloaded as part of the auditing process. It cannot be interactively loaded via the Administrator. If you expected the table to be loaded (that is, you know you have auditing enabled), then check the autoload logs for any errors. A troubleshooting note for auditing is here: KB0036304

Also see Reload Methods.

The changes are made using the Configuration Manager plug-in.

It appears that you do either do not have access to Configuration Manager plug-in, or maybe the plug-in is not installed on the client that you are using. Are you logged in as an unrestricted user?

This SAS note might help you get the plug-ins installed. However, this is really an install issue, so if you have problems, then I'd suggest posting to the Administration and Deployment community.

https://support.sas.com/kb/60/639.html

After enabling auditing in Configuration Manager and restarting the web application server, if you are still unable to get the audit data loaded, please open a case with SAS Technical Support for further assistance.

Re: How to order TO and FROM nodes in Path Way diagram (Sankey) in Visual Analytics

Madelyn_SAS — Tue, 11 Mar 2025 19:25:13 GMT

I do see that an option to order the nodes was not available in version 7.5x, and I don't see any indication in later releases that the option to order nodes was added. I don't see any open feature requests. You could add one using this community:

Hello, please let us know your release of Visual Analytics so that any answers are sure to apply to your release.

Re: Unable to view usage report created by SAS

va.AuditingEnabled is a configuration property for the Visual Analytics application, found under Configuration Manager > Application Infrastructure in SMC. Open Properties for Visual Analytics and check the Advanced tab for the property. If it is not set to true currently, then change it to true and restart the SAS Web Application Server where VA is deployed.

Here are additional resources for setting up auditing:

Re: Unable to view usage report created by SAS

Really, all of the information for troubleshooting problems with auditing are in that article. If you believe that it should be enabled, then please go through each item in

Identifying the Problem

As soon as you answer "no" to an item in the list, go to the Checklist as indicated and start reviewing each step required to enable auditing to ensure that they are done. For example, this is the first item in the Identifying the Problem list.

Does an audit_visualanalytics.sas7bdat file exist in the <EVDMLA>/Append directory?

If no, then this is a problem. Move on to the Checklist.
If yes, then move to step 2.

If you answer "no" to this--meaning that there is no audit_visualanalytics.sas7bdat in that directory--then start going through the Checklist to make sure that all of the required steps were taken. If you answer "yes" to that item, then move on to item 2, and so on.

Once auditing is enabled, the audit_visualanalytics LASR table is loaded via the autoload process. You don't load it manually. Did you review the troubleshooting Checklist in the article? If you go to the Visual Analytics Administrator application, do you see the audit_visualanalytics LASR table loaded (indicated by the green status circle)?

Which version of Visual Analytics are you using?

Bar charts do have a stacking option and you can display them horizontally.
