This is a basic transposition problem. However, the resulting variable names cannot be numbers, with the following code, they will be like V100048 and V100055 :

proc sort data=have; by date; run;

proc transpose data=have out=want(drop=_:) prefix=V;

by date;

id id;

var return;

run;

How about?:

proc sort data=have;

  by date;

run;

proc transpose data=have out=want (drop=_:);

  var return;

  id id;

  by date;

run;

Assuming id is a numeric variable.

data have;
do date='31aug2011'd to '31dec2011'd;
 id=100048;return=2;
 output;
end;
do date='31jan1980'd to '30apr1980'd;
 id=100055;return=2;
 output;
end;
run;
proc sql;
 select distinct cats('have(rename=(return=_',id,') where=(id=',id,'))') into : list separated by ' ' 
  from have;
quit;
data want;
 merge &list ;
 by date ;
run;
