Someone recommend using pro sql but am a novice to sql so is there any other method?

 fake data;

Income Setting Name Code  Encounter_no

Just to be clear, you want to sum the Encounter_No by Setting? Otherwise, please be more specific 🙂

If I understand your question correctly

 

data have;
input Income Setting $ Name $ Code Encounter_no;
datalines;
100 ABC Cat 123 98765
200 BAC Dog 321 78675
300 CDA Bird 121 34555
;

proc summary data=have nway;
   class Setting Income;
   var Encounter_no;
   output out=want(drop=_TYPE_ _FREQ_) sum=sum;
run;

PROC FREQ and PROC MEANS are the most used procs in SAS. Learn them well 🙂

 

proc freq data=have; *Have is your input data set name;
table setting;
table income;
run;
