Create new variable based on observations on another variable.

[Haydo]

I have the following code:

There are over 50 unique observations in the "type" variable and I'm hoping that someone can have a bit of code that will do this based on the observations as they may vary from month to month (some months there will be 40 and others 40 to 50).

proc summary data=work.old_data nway;
  class suburb type;
  var customers ;
  output out=work.new_data sum= ;
run;

Mock Data
Suburb	Type	Customers
Suburb1	Type1	50
Suburb1	Type2	100
Suburb1	Type3	2
Suburb1	Type4	3000
Suburb1	Type5	250
Suburb2	Type1	25
Suburb2	Type2	35
Suburb2	Type3	7500
Suburb2	Type4	1
Suburb2	Type5	5
Desired Result
Suburb	Type1	Type2	Type3	Type4	Type5
Suburb1	50	100	2	3000	250
Suburb2	25	35	7500	1	5

proc report data=have;
column suburb customers,type;
define suburb / group;
define customers / "" analysis sum;
define type / "" across;
run;
