This is a popular technique

data have; 
  
input ID prod :$1.  dt  val;
   informat dt yymmn6.;
  
datalines;
10  A  201001  8
10  A  201003  9  
10  A  201005  2
10  A  201008  3
10  B  200903  1
10  B  200906  5
10  B  200909  2
10  B  200910  1
;;;;
   run;
data filled;
   set have end=eof;
   by id prod;
   output;
  
if not eof then set have(firstobs=2 keep=dt rename=dt=ndt);
   if not last.prod then do;
     
call missing(val);
      do m=1 to intck('MONTH',dt,ndt)-1;
         dt = intnx(
'MONTH',dt,1);
         output;
        
end;    
     
end;
  
call missing(of ndt);
   format dt yymm.;
  
drop ndt m;
   run;

One more question.   After running the code, In my dt field I am getting M, for example 2010M01.  Is there anyway I can get only 201001?

Hi data_null_,

Somehow the above code is not working against my real data.  It does not fill up the missing dates instead it repeats the same the dates in the missing months.

Please let me know if how can I can send you the dataset of just 10 obs and 5 columns to test.

Thanks

10  B  200910  1
;;;;
   run;
data filled;
   set have end=eof;
   by id prod;
   output;

   if not last.prod then do;
     
call missing(val);
      do m=1 to intck('MONTH',dt,ndt)-1;
         dt = intnx(

         output;

Everything works fine except that I want only

to fill the dates upto most current date(upto 12 months).  I don't want to fill the dates beyond 12 months..
