Please guide.

If the value for your date is already a SAS date and the time a SAS time value then you can create the date time variable in a data step with:
dtc = dhms(date,0,0,time);
and assign the desired format.
If Date and Time are indeed character variables then
tm = input(Time, hhmmss4.);
dt = dhms(input(Date, yymmdd8.), hour(tm), minute(tm), second(tm));
format dt e8601dt19.;
It's finally time to hack! Remember to visit the SAS Hacker's Hub regularly for news and updates.
Learn how use the CAT functions in SAS to join values from multiple variables into a single value.
