It is not direct task to do. First you need to pull and store metadata information in SAS dataset.

Second - Then you need to write SAS program using metadata information to do Impact analysis or Reverse impact analysis.

 

For step one - you can refer to this post

Once you have metadata information you should be able to do analysis.
