I have a data set that has a field that shows dates as (SEE BELOW):
01MAY2012
01JAN2012
01JUL2012
How would I run a summary report and show the dates as quarters?
Q12012
Q22012
Q32012
Q42012
In the report somehow you want to apply a format, yyQ, which would come up as 2012Q1
SAS(R) 9.2 Language Reference: Dictionary, Fourth Edition
If you want the Q in front you may have to make your own format.
data have;
input date date9.;
format date date9.;
date1=date;
format date1 yyq10.;
date2=catt('Q',qtr(date),year(date));
cards;
01MAY2012
01JAN2012
01JUL2012
