About this customer connect for Banco Santander 

During the webinar SAS users in Banco Santander will discover why they should use macro code. The SAS macro language is part of base SAS. By adding macro code to your program a single edit can alter multiple items ensuring consistent behaviour.  You can also create programs that change dynamically based on factors like the day of the week or the contents of a library.

What you will learn:

  • Basic concepts of SAS macro.
  • Using a case study we will take a simple code example and turn it into a parameterized SAS macro program.
  • The webinar will be held live, and you will be able to ask all the necessary questions for a correct follow-up of the session.

Why use macro code?

  • Automation – create self-modifying code
  • Efficiency – eliminate duplication of code
  • Resilience – let the code do the right thing when things go wrong
  • Re-use – store code in macro programs that cam be called from anywhere
  • Security – Hide the logic in your code from others users
