Transposing long to wide

[MCandun]

I'm using SAS-EG (version: 7.15 HF3 7.100.5.6132) and have imported my data (from an excel file).

The data I have looks like this:

ID	Intake_Date	Closed_Date	Outcome	Result	Outcome_time_spent	Case Status
110	2022-04-01	2022-05-01	Consult	Individual	30	Closed
110	2022-04-01	2022-05-01	Training	Complete	45	Closed
120	2022-01-01	2022-04-01	Consult	Pending	15	Closed
120	2022-01-01	2022-04-01	SessionA	Complete	30	Closed
130	2022-05-01	2022-05-15	Consult	Complete	60	Closed
130	2022-05-01	2022-05-15	SessionB	Complete	30	Closed

I want to rearrange the data to capture all the info in one line per ID, like this:

ID	Intake_Date	Closed_Date	Outcome	Result	Outcome_time_spent	Outcome2	Result2	Outcome_time_spent2	Case Status
110	2022-04-01	2022-05-01	Consult	Individual	30	Training	Complete	45	Closed
120	2022-01-01	2022-04-01	Consult	Pending	15	SessionA	Complete	30	Closed
130	2022-05-01	2022-05-15	Consult	Complete	60	SessionB	Complete	30	Closed

Do you want a data set, for further analysis, or a report for people to read?

If you think you want a data set, what exactly do you expect to do with the data in the "wide" format that cannot be done with the existing format.

Also for your consideration: You show 4 different values for Outcome (at least). Does it really make sense to have Outcome2 sometimes Training, sometimes Session A and sometimes Session B? That sort of makes the utility of that data structure a little questionable as you have to deal with multiple variables for anything involving Outcome, which can lead to pretty ugly and hard to follow code.

Hi, thanks for your reply! I am looking to create a a dataset that will be merged (with 2 other datasets) by ID to create a complete line list for each case (ID). There are several outcomes possible and each entry (i.e., Outcome1 to Outcome8) could be any one of the outcomes.

This format is not needed to "merge" data sets though the technique to use varies on the content of the other two data sets and the expected output.

So may examples of the other 2 data sets and the expected result.
