As I read it, there is nothing in your code not supported by PROC SQL in SAS, so simply wrap it inside a PROC SQL call.

If activity_date and ad are SAS dates, and 'mm/dd/yy' are actually numbers, you should use the form:

AND Activity_Date >= 'ddmonyyyy'd

I do not completly understand the query. But most of it should work in Proc SQL too. Except few changes where you mention date columns and at is not null.

 

Activity_Date >= 'mm/dd/yyyy'

to

Activity_Date >= 'ddmmmyyyy'd  example '21jul2017'd

 

is not null

to

is not missing
