increment=1;
dt=intnx('dtday',dt,increment)+'2:3:4't;
format dt datetime20.;
run;
Durations can be stored as date-time,
34 data _null_;
35 dt = dhms('01jan2020'd,0,0,0);
36 duration = dhms(1,2,3,4);
37 x = sum(dt,duration);
38 put (dt duration x) (=datetime22.) duration=time12.;
39 run;
dt=01JAN2020:00:00:00 duration=02JAN1960:02:03:04 x=02JAN2020:02:03:04 duration=26:03:04
