Ability to terminate a SAS stored process without triggering an ERROR code.

[RobP]

At the top of my stored procedure I have code that checks prerequisites for it to run successfully, and if I find any issues I want to return a custom error message, and then end the stored process gracefully.  Something like "endsas" but without the error conditions associated with it.

I saw SAS Note: http://support.sas.com/kb/16/225.html  which gives a workaround but it involves disabling the "Show Log" button across all stored processes which I do not want to do.

You might want to look in options for the Abort statement / %Abort statement.  At a glance, it looks like they might all write an error to the log, but it's possible you can avoid it.
