I have data that looks like the following as a data set in SAS (goes on for multiple years):
Date | Dollar Amount |
07/14/2020 | 50 |
07/14/2020 | 20 |
07/14/2020 | 10 |
07/15/2020 | 30 |
07/15/2020 | 5 |
07/15/2020 | 67 |
I want to sum the dollar amount for each date to return one summed amount for each date in a new table that looks like the following:
Date | Dollar Amount |
07/14/2020 | 80 |
07/15/2020 | 102 |
How do I create this new table?
data have;
input Date :mmddyy10. DollarAmount;
format Date mmddyy10.;
datalines;
07/14/2020 50
07/14/2020 20
07/14/2020 10
07/15/2020 30
07/15/2020 5
07/15/2020 67
;
proc summary data = have nway;
class Date;
var DollarAmount;
output out = want(drop = _:) sum =;
run;
