Use Proc SQL to summarize tables into groupings
Here are 2 methods of using Proc SQL ot summarize tables into groupings. In this case we use the SasHelp.Shoes dataset. You can view the same code on my snippet repository.
/*Method 1*/
proc sql feedback;
*describe table dictionary.columns;
select
catx(' ','Sum(',name,') as',
Name,ifc(not missing(format),cats('format=',format),' '))
into :sumlist separated by ', '
from dictionary.columns
where libname eq 'SASHELP' and memname eq 'SHOES' and type eqt 'n'
;
%put NOTE: &numlist;
select region, product, &sumlist
from sashelp.shoes
group by region, product;
quit;
/*Method 1*/proc sql;
select region, product, sum(stores) as sumstores, sum(sales) as sumsales,
sum(inventory) as suminventory, sum(returns) as
sumreturns from sashelp.shoes
group by region, product;
quit;
