Looking for participant ID if v5 is present, however, v4 is missing then we need to flag. 

 

 

Expected Output should be

Below selects all IDs with a visit=5 and populates the "flag" if there is no visit=v4

data want;
	if _n_=1 then
		do;
/* 			dcl hash h1(dataset:'have'); */
			dcl hash h1(dataset:'have(where=(visit in ("v4","v5")))');
			h1.defineKey('id','visit');
			h1.defineDone();
		end;
	set have;
	if h1.check(key:id, key:'v5') = 0 then 
		do;
			if h1.check(key:id, key:'v4') ne 0 then flag='Missing visit 4';
			output;
		end;
run;

proc print data=want;
run;
