Easy-peasy.

 

Create a table of all the possible ID/Metric/Month combinations, and then left-join it.

data Have;
	length ID 8 Metric $1 Month 8 Score 8;
	input ID Metric Month Score;
	cards;
1 a 1 .9
1 b 1 .9
1 c 1 .8
1 d 1 .8
1 a 2 .7
1 c 2 .8
1 d 2 .8
1 b 3 .9
1 c 3 .6
1 d 3 .6
run;

data AllRecs;
	length Metric $1;
	Score = 0;

	do ID = 1 to 10;
		do Metric = "a", "b", "c", "d";
			do Month = 1 to 12;
				output;
			end;
		end;
	end;
run;

proc sql noprint;
	create table want as
		select a.ID, a.Metric, a.Month,
			case 
				when h.Score is missing then 0 
				else h.Score 
			end
		from AllRecs a left join Have h on a.ID = h.ID and a.Metric = h.Metric and a.Month = h.Month;
quit;

PROC Star

SQL might be the easiest way to create a shell with the complete structure in it:

 

proc sql noprint;

create table id_list as select distinct id from have;

create table metric_list as select distinct metric from have;

create table month_list as select distinct month from have;

create table all_values as select * from id_list, metric_list month_list

   orderby id metric month;

quit;

 

Then fill in the blanks:

 

data want;

merge all_values have (in=have_it);

by id metric month;

if have_it=0 then score = 0;

run;
