Edit the Source Table
Imagine you find a critical data quality error in your data set that you need to fix, or you may want to change input variables for control tables. This new feature allows you to do that directly within SAS Visual Analytics when this capability is enabled for your user. You will need write access to the CAS library (caslib) to start editing tables, create new rows, delete outdated ones or update individual cells. Learn more.
