I have following dataset. i want to create another flag based on status value by type.

if for a type status=True then Flag should be "true" for all type & if a type contains both true & false value under status then let it be "Partial" and if for a type status=False then Flag should be "Flase" for all type.

 

 

data one;

input type $  Status $12.;

datalines;
A true

A false B false C true C true C true E false E false E false
;
run;

Use a double do loop:

data one;
input type $ Status :$12.;
datalines;
A true
A false
A false
C true
C true
C true
E false
E false
E false
;

data want;
do until(last.type);
  set one;
  by type;
  f = max(f,ifn(status='false',1,0));
  t = max(t,ifn(status='true',1,0));
end;
if f and t
then flag = 'Partial';
else if f
then flag = 'False';
else if t
then flag = 'True';
else flag = 'Undef';
do until (last.type);
  set one;
  by type;
  output;
end;
drop t f;
run;

proc print data=want noobs;
run;

Result:

type    Status    flag

 A      true      Partial
 A      false     Partial
 A      false     Partial
 C      true      True   
 C      true      True   
 C      true      True   
 E      false     False  
 E      false     False  
 E      false     False
