SAS has a procedure for doing exactly that.

You can also send the resulting file via ftp using the filename statement:

As far as scheduling is confirmed you can install a crontab task to execute the job as a SAS batch process if you wanted.

Other scheduling options include the Windows Scheduler if you are running under Windows, numerous third-party schedulers, or in SAS itself via the EG schedule project facility or the DATA step SLEEP function.
