cards;
001 2001
001 2002

I wish to create data B from A
data B;
input id admit SeqN ;
cards;
001 2001 1
001 2002 2
001 2002 3
002 2001 1
002 2001 2
003 2002 1
;
run;
I want to create a SeqN from Data A.
As long as your data set is sorted by ID:
data want;
set have;
by id;
if first.id then SeqN=1;
else SeqN + 1;
run;
As long as your data set is sorted by ID:
data want;
set have;
by id;
if first.id then SeqN=1;
else SeqN + 1;
run;
Thank you!!!
Good use for ifn()?
data want; set have; by id; seqn=ifn(first.id,1,seqn+1); run;
