Hi,

 

I want to add year 12/31/1971 and 12/31/1986 to each ID. Can anyone please help me to do it. I have attached an excel file with sample data. I will be grateful if anyone can help me.

Use BY groups again and LAST with explicit OUTPUT.

 

data want; 
set have;
by id;

output;

if last.id then do;
    date='01Jan2017'd; output;
    date='02Jan2017'd; output;
end;

run;

Thank you very much for your reply. Your code adds two additional years:
1976 and 2017 after each observation but it also copies the other variables
associated with last reported year of each observation in the missing year.
I want the two additional year and all the variables associated with the
year missing (.). Could you please modify your code to do it? I have added
an excel file with my original data and expected SAS output.

1. There's no attachment

2. Set the values to missing manually or use call missing() in the do condition.

Thank you. I set other variable as missing with if function.
