I need to calculate rows with a lag variable but struggling to do that. Essentially it should follow this function
For first row, D = A+B
For subsequent rows, D = lag(D)+A
Any guidance?

No LAG() needed. Just make sure D is a NEW variable and RETAIN its value.
data want ;
set have;
retain d;
if _n_=1 then d=a+b;
else d=d+a ;
run;
