Another option is the use of the "Ordered List" In using this method it helps to rename the various task / steps to something intuitive to the process flow, i.e., query 1, summary 1, query 2, report 2, etc.... Then build your ordered list to run in the sequence desired. Message was edited by: Jay Message was edited by: Jay ... View more

I tried to find an old application where I did this and got close, found the code but not the data but,... I think the options that will help you out with this is the "by variable" i.e. "by process". When you create your outlimits dataset use "by process" this will add the name of the process to the limits dataset. Then when you create the display of the chart using the limits dataset, use the "by process" again and it will match the display dataset with the correct limits dataset. ... View more

Quick test of this, using SAS on a PC in EG: mainlib library was pre-asigned. Executed your data step and the testing dataset was now in the EG project. I think the key is the pre-assigment of the library, talk to your SAS server adminstrator this is easy to set up if not already. ... View more

If you are using EG 4.2, with in the query builder there is an icon labeled "prompt manager". This will build your prompt window. How to use it is straight forward and the help documentation is pretty good. The date/time problem, every time I have encountered similar problems I had to fix it from the XL side i.e. it really isn't a SAS problem it's an XL problem. ... View more

Yes there is a way. Key words: READPHASES= and READINDEXES= You may have to use these options in the code, I don't recall them being in an EG task. Conceptually you willl have two sets of control limits, one for phase one and another for phase two, etc. of the data. This link will / should take you to the on-line documenation and an example: http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/qcug/63922/HTML/default/viewer.htm#/documentation/cdl/en/qcug/63922/HTML/default/qcug_shewhart_a0000003894.htm ...

It depends.... The results of some quick testing, after setting up the prompts the way Richard described, this is what I saw: 1) If it's run from an ordered list or the top of the process flow: I was prompted once for the macros (there were three in this project) at the very start and the macros were used and resolved in all of the other nodes without further prompts. 2) If I ran the project "node by node" manually, it will put a prompt up in every node that uses one of the macros. ...

That works - Thanks Richard ! ... View more

It is EG 4.2 The problem with the "work-around" is that it removes the "interactive" nature of using the prompt.... But, I haven't found any solution either... ... View more
