Hi everyone,
I am just learning to code and need assistance on how to join 3 tables. I think there should be a parenthesis somewhere but cant figure it out. Thank you!
proc sql;
create table aero.affiliate_orders as
select a.ordernumber,
a.Affiliate,
a.Revenue,
b.Publisher_category,
c.new_customer
from
aero.clc a
left join
aero.affiliate_cat b
left join
aero.new_repeat_master_customer c
ON a.ordernumber=c.order_number and
a.affiliate = b.company_name
where a.sourcetype="Affiliate"
;quit;
proc sql;
create table aero.affiliate_orders as
select a.ordernumber,
a.Affiliate,
a.Revenue,
b.Publisher_category,
c.new_customer
from aero.clc a
left join aero.affiliate_cat b
on a.affiliate = b.company_name
left join aero.new_repeat_master_customer c
on a.ordernumber=c.order_number
where a.sourcetype="Affiliate"
;quit;
Try using a separate ON clause after each left join, rather than a single combined clause after the second join.

Why do you think you need parenthesis?
proc sql;
create table aero.affiliate_orders as
select a.ordernumber,
a.Affiliate,
a.Revenue,
b.Publisher_category,
c.new_customer
from aero.clc a
left join aero.affiliate_cat b
on a.affiliate = b.company_name
left join aero.new_repeat_master_customer c
on a.ordernumber=c.order_number
where a.sourcetype="Affiliate"
;quit;
Thanks!
