Hi All,

Kindly request you to help me to approach the below problem.

I have Channel , Item and Count.  I want to get the sum of all count , i.e 2611 and then divide by each count to get weights . So weights is 1620/2611 = 62.05% .

 
 
channel item count weights
Commercial_Sales ItemA 1620 62.05%
Commercial_Sales ItemB 41 1.57%
Contact_Centre ItemA 147 5.63%
Contact_Centre ItemB 803 30.75%
    2611  
 

Below is the data 

 

 

data have;
input Channel :$30. item :$10. count 8.;
datalines;
Commercial_Sales ItemA 1620 
Commercial_Sales ItemB 41 
Contact_Centre ItemA 147 
Contact_Centre ItemB 803 
;
run;

proc freq data=have noprint; 
  tables channel*item/list out=want(rename=( percent=weights)) ;
