I intend to create the following statistics  for some continuous variable. I used Proc summary as follow

proc summary data=&dataset nway completetypes;
   class &grp/ preloadfmt;
   var &continuous;
   output out=continuous2(drop=_type_);							
   run;

this was my output.

 

         thsundefined

Is there any way to add to the same table the quantiles(Q1, Median and Q3)? 

thanks

You can add output statements for each new statistic and the combine, this make the syntax easy. 

 

I used to do that but with PROC MEANS STACKODS I prefer that option.  While the data structure is not the same it is equally useful.

 

proc summary nway data=sashelp.class;
   class sex;
   var _numeric_;
   output out=stats;
   output out=median median=;
   output out=q1 q1=;
   output out=q3 q3=;
   run;
data stats;
   set stats median q1 q3 indsname=indsname;
   by sex;
   if missing(_stat_) then _stat_=scan(indsname,-1,'.');
   run;
proc print;
   run;
ods exclude all;
proc means data=sashelp.class n mean std min max median q1 q3 nway stackods;
   class sex;
   ods output summary=summary;
   run; 
ods exclude none;
proc print;
   run;

I tried by listing the keywords for the statistics I want, no luck. It only produces statistics for one variable.
What is wrong in my code?

PROC UNIVARIATE does not support PRELOADFMT and has other CLASS statement limitations.
