There are n number of customers belongs to one branches and there multiple managers(say 3 managers in this case) in the same branch.
some customers are reserved to manager1, need to assign rest of the customers managers such that all the managers are assigned to equal number of customers.
Customer_NBR Branch Assign_ID
1 abc Manger1
2 abc Manager2
3 abc Manager2
4 abc --
5 abc --
.
.
.
100 abc --
After assigning mangers to each customer, I would need each manager to have equal number of customers assigined
Manger1 34 Customers
Manager 2 33 Customers
Manager3 33 Customers
Please post the data you have in usable form: a data step using datalines.
Without "some customers are reserved to managerX", proc rank could do the job, but i think some additional steps are required to fulfil the requirement.
attached the data,
In sheet1 Customer_id is assigned to ID1, if that ID matches to manager in Sheet2 for that branch then Cu will get same manager. if not assign to other manager in the same branch. But Finally each manager should get equal number of Customers assigned to them.
In this case,
for abc branch, below number customers assigned to each manager.
manager1-- 32
manager2-- 32
manager3-- 31
Thank you
You have been shown how to post data here. Excel files are not helpful.
So you have 3 tables to start with? Something like: customer_branch, branch_manager, manager_customer?
Or do you already have a single table to start with? If so where would we get the full list of all managers belonging to a branch (even the ones without pre-assigned customers)?
Posting sample data in form of a data step(s) is what helps us to spend the time answering your question instead of spending the time preparing sample data.
