I'm using SAS 9.4 and this is first time I'm using DQGENDER to identify gender from name. Here is the code:

 

data sample1; set sample;

gender = dqGender(name, 'Gender', 'ENUSA');

run;

 

The code returns the following error.

"ERROR 68-185: The function DQGENDER is unknown, or cannot be accessed."

Not sure what I missing. Any help is appreciated.

Do you have https://www.sas.com/en_us/software/data-quality.html installed?

Run PROC SETINIT to check if you have it licensed.

Thank you for pointing that out. I don't have it installed.
