data lab;
set lab1;
by usubjid dose dosedate;
if first.dosedate then d=1;
else d + 1;
run;
I was trying to get the first dosedate as i have some dose missing.
Can someone suggest better options.
Thank you
I think you want first.dose as you want the first occurence of dosedate within a dose, correct? But WHICH dose dates are missing? If you sorted your data by usubjid dose and dosedate then the first dosedate(s) would be the missing ones.
I might look at
Proc summary data=lab1 nway;
class usubjid dose;
where dosedate ne .; var dosedate;
output lab min(dosedate) = firstdosedate;
