Hi Bees,

Sorry to bother you again, Actually, I have created the new datasets through SAS base in eminer version 6.2 to use these datasets into the eminer project.

The problem is that I cannot see actual datasets (visualize) into the explorer by clicking "Get the Details" but I can use the same datasets into next step.

Could you please give me a trick, how to refresh the explorer, so the datasets could be visualize/get reflected into the explorer by clicking "Get the Details".

Thanks in advance for your advise.

Regards,

Mirza

Hi Miguel,

Now my datasets are reflecting by using Explorer, once library defined on the Project Start Code . Its great efforts from your side, apprciated. Thanks a lot Sir.

Hey Mirza,

No prob. It sounds like you are hiking the learning curve of Enterprise Miner. Give it a few weeks and you'll be the one answering questions!

If I understand right, you want to see a data set that you created using the "create data source" wizard. correct?

Remember that each EM node creates two things: a view of your data set (because views save space!) and some other data sets that contain your results. The prefix of the node and the prefix of the results usually match.

Drag and drop a data source to your workspace. Then use the browser to locate your workspace, and notice that there is an IDS view that matches the data source that you just dropped in that diagram. Double click to open this view.

An alternative, you can look at the exported data sets of your IDS node using the Exported Data ellipsis. You can use browse or explore options.

Does that answer your question?

Thanks,

Miguel

Hi Miguel,

Yeah you are right, I am exploring and facing the few issues,thanks for encouraging.

Actually, I have created these datasets through "SAS Base" in eminer (version 6.2).

These newly created dataset by Base SAS of eminer are not reflecting in Eminer Explorer (actually it reflected one time only afterwards not reflecting).

I hope now my question is clarified now.

Thanks,

Mirza

Mmmm I am not sure I understand this. SAS Base and SAS Enterprise Miner are two different products.

Where exactly are you creating this data set, and where do you want to see it?

Screenshots might help here.

Please give it a try to rephrase your question. If needed we can arrange a webex to expedite things.

One more try please!

Thanks,

Miguel

Hi Miguel,

Sorry for confusion.  "SAS Base" means that creating new datasets in work area of eminer (EMWS) by hard coding or in any permanent library.

I want to see these datasets either into the work area of eminer (EMWS) or any defined permanent library through explorer menu tab.


Thanks for cooperation.

Mirza

I would create a data set in base SAS or SAS Enterprise Guide, and then import it in Enterprise Miner using the "Create Data Source" wizard.

But if you absolutely want to do it in Enterpise Miner, you can use the Project Start Code.

For example, below I create my own version of the Home Equity data set. It is stored in the library sampsio. With this code I use a libname statement to create a library called "d" that points to that path (D\allusers\miguel) and then I use a data-step to create a copy of hmeq called d.my_own_hmeq.

If you use the browser, you can see this new library "d" and all that it contains. But you still have to use the "create data source" wizard to use this data set in Enterprise Miner.

Mockup below. On step 2 of the wizard, when I browse I can locate my "d" library and the data set I created "my_own_hmeq".

Is this what you needed?

Good luck!

Hi Miguel,

As  you described in step 2 of the wizard, when I browse I can locate my "d" library,

But the data set I created "my_own_hmeq",

That is not reflecting in "d" library, that is the my question.

What  I have to do trick so that "my_own_hmeq get reflected in to the "d" library.

Thank you very much for taking a pain for clarification.

Mirza

If I understand OK your question is: How do I point Enterprise Miner to a specific directory?

The answer: use a libname statement in your Project Source Code.

In my second screenshot, the data set is in the "D" library because I pointed Enterprise Miner to a location of a "D" library.

The statement     libname d "<path>";     creates a library called "D" that points EM to a physical location (<path>).

If I am still not getting your question, please rephrase.

Thanks,

In your second screenshot there are 2 tabs.

1. Get Details &

2. Refresh

I have used the refresh tab &  Get Details tabs to reflect this newly generated "my_own_hmeq" in "d" library but it is not reflecting/refreshing.

Here is my point, what to do, so it get reflected in "d"library.

Thank you very much Sir for your cooperation.

Mirza

The "create data source" wizard picks up the data sets automatically. The only cases you need refresh is for data sets that get created after you launched the wizard, which is a rare scenario.

Are you sure that you are creating the library and the data set correctly?

What happens when you use the Explorer (9th icon from left to right) to navigate to the newly generated library and data set?

Can you find your data set using the Explorer? If you cannot find your data set this way, you are probably not creating it correctly.

Give it one more try creating the library and the data set on the Project Start Code. If it does not work shoot me an email. You can find my address on the last page of this paper: http://support.sas.com/resources/papers/proceedings14/SAS133-2014.pdf
