proc sql noprint; connect to DB2 (&cpplogin); create table t_escrow as select * from connection to db2 ( SELECT distinct * FROM DX.T_escrow_1 WHERE tran_date >= '2019-01-01' and loan_num in ('2211','3123','908766','9876') /*need to replace this line with a new select statement and new passthrough connection.*/ and UPDATE_CD IN ('A','C') order by ln_no,tran_date desc WITH UR ); disconnect from db2; quit; proc sql; connect to sqlsvr (&dlogin_new.); CREATE TABLE loan_lookup AS ( SELECT * FROM connection to sqlsvr ( select lnbr FROM D_Tran.dbo.DT_DBBT_Lookup ) ) ; disconnect from sqlsvr; run; quit;
I need to integrate loan_lookup into the t_escrow table. It will be filtered based on the loan_lookup query however notice the connections are slightly different. Would I need to run the queries separately then combine them (not preferred) or is there a way to handle this in the same iteration despite two different connection strings
I don't understand what the question is. You can definitely be connected to multiple external databases at the same time.
proc sql;
connect to a;
connect to b;
create table c as
select *
from (select * from connection to a (select * from table_in_a)) a
left join (select * from connection to b (select * from table_in_b)) b
on a.id = b.id
;
quit;
But I have a feeling you are trying to ask a different question.
