Hi Team,

I have a sas program which helps me to find the space in server and want to execute this program daily bases. In my EG 'schedule project' option is not working. is there any other way to schedule the sas execution of that program. 

I will highly appreciate the help.

On which platform is your SAS running?

Scheduling in SAS EG has always been a little mess as you need to be fully aware of the operating system your OS is running on.

It could work by creating a vbscript which SAS EG can create for you from dropdown and then you can schedule the same in windows task scheduler using the cscript.exe tool.
However the server where this vbscript file should be run on,should be windows.

As your SAS EG is working as headless server, i.e its GUI is on windows and the OS where it submits the job for execution is Unix and unix doesn't have the cscript.exe tool to run the vbscript or any other windows tools for that matter.

So you won't be able to schedule this program.
