Scoring a data using the coefficients of proc transreg

[roushankumar]

Hi,

I created a model of the following form

proc transreg data=mydata outest=work.est;

model BoxCox(Sales) = identity ( x1 x2 x3 x4 );

run;

When I check the table work.est I do not see coefficients against x1 x2 x3 and x4. The column 'Variable' in work.est does not have any values. I do see columns 'Statistic' and 'Value' which have Error, Root RMSE etc. How do I score an external data using this model's coefficients? Since I have used a boxcox transformation, what transformation do I need to get the predictions in the original form? Thanks for the help!

All SAS regression procedure support the "missing value trick" for scoring external data. I don't use PROC TRANSREG enough to know whether it supports other scoring options.
