Find discrepancy between two datasets

[dash]

Hi,

I want to compare variable of table1 with table2. If discrepancy found, store it in a new dataset with a comment. After that, compare each variable value from table1 with variable value of table2. If found mismatch, stored in new dataset.

Expected Output

comment  variable missing for table2

length-ename-emp

length-hdate-HR 

label-dname-Dept

data table1;
input dataset $ variable $ label $ datatype $ length $ comment $;
datalines;
Emp ename empname char 40 .
Emp job job char 20 .
Emp sal salary char 20000 .
Dept dname deptname char 10 .
HR hdate hiredate date date9 .
;
run;
data table2;
input dataset $ variable $ label $ datatype $ length $;
datalines;
Emp ename empname char 48
Emp job job char 20
Emp sal salary char 20000
Dept dname dept char 10
HR hdate hiredate date date9.

run;

Use PROC COMPARE:

proc sort data=table1;
by dataset variable;
run;

proc sort data=table2;
by dataset variable;
run;

proc compare
  base=table1
  compare=table2
  listvar
  out=comp
;
id dataset variable;
run;
