I need new variable dtc as below.
2016-08-24T03:45:00 with format of is8601da. or is8601dt..
Please guide.

If the value for your date is already a SAS date and the time a SAS time value then you can create the date time variable in a data step with:
dtc = dhms(date,0,0,time);
and assign the desired format.
If Date and Time are indeed character variables then
tm = input(Time, hhmmss4.);
dt = dhms(input(Date, yymmdd8.), hour(tm), minute(tm), second(tm));
format dt e8601dt19.;
