I want to create a bar chart using sas code with data as below with sgplot. 

 

PROC SGPLOT DATA = applications;

VBAR sys / RESPONSE = app;

VBAR sys / RESPONSE = env;

RUN;

 

Sys     app     env

 

a           67       45

b           20       54

c           35       60

d           40       78

1. Transform your data to a long format so that you have three variables: SYS, MEASUREMENT_TYPE (APP/ENV), Value (measurement).

 

SYS, Measurement_Type, Value

 

2. Sort

 

3. Use VBAR, GROUP = Measurement_Type and GroupDisplay=Cluster. 

 

If this doesn't work for you, post your code. 

I did test it and this does generate the graph indicated.
