I have a dataset that needs to identify the office hours that has opened after 5 PM.
If any of the office hour days that has opened after 5pm needs to create an Indicator Y ; if not indicator has to display as N.
data test;
input Monday $1-15 Tuesday $16-31 wednesday $32-47 Thursday $48-64 Friday $65-79 Saturday $80-96 Sunday $97-111;

My code:
data after_5pmHours;
set test;
Monday1 = input(substr(Monday,9,2), 8.);
if Monday1 = 12 and substr(Monday,14,2) = 'PM' then Indicator = 'N';
else if Monday1 > 5 and substr(Monday,14,2) = 'PM' then Indicator = 'Y';
else Indicator = 'N';
run;
Thanks for your help
I've simplified the data lines coding, and put it all in one step. Turning the data into SAS time values makes things much easier.
data after_5pm;
array days[7] $ 15 monday tuesday wednesday thursday friday saturday sunday;
input (monday tuesday wednesday thursday friday saturday sunday) ($15. +1);
indicator = 'N';
do i = 1 to 7 until(indicator = 'Y');
if input(scan(days[i], 2, '-'), time.) > '17:00:00't then
indicator = 'Y';
end;
keep monday tuesday wednesday thursday friday saturday sunday indicator;
