Using JMP - SAS

Chapter 3 Import Your Data 81
Import Data from SAS
To select and run a stored process:
1. Select File > SAS > Browse SAS Folders.
The Browse SAS Folders window appears.
2. Browse through the stored processes to find the one that you want to run.
3. Select it and click Run.
The data opens as a JMP data table.
On Windows, you can also right-click a stored process and select Copy Metadata Path. This option copies
the path to the clipboard. You can then paste it into a script window to include it as a parameter for the JSL
operator Meta Get Stored Process(). For more information, see the Scripting Guide.
Note: Static graphs might not appear in the results returned from a SAS stored process when streaming
output is selected.
Stored processes send reports to HTML by default, but you can select RTF or PDF instead on the SAS
Integration page of the JMP preferences. Select File > Preferences (Windows) or JMP > Preferences
(Macintosh) to view the JMP preferences.
Submit SAS Code
You can submit SAS code directly from JMP to the currently active SAS server. If the submitted SAS code
generates SAS Listing output, that output is automatically retrieved from the SAS server and displayed in
JMP. Also, the generated SAS Log is retrieved, and, if there are any errors in the submitted code, the SAS
Log is automatically displayed in the SAS Log window.

x=1;

To run SAS code directly from JMP:
1. Either open an existing SAS program using File > Open, or create a new SAS program. (Create a new
SAS program by selecting File > SAS > New SAS Program and typing in the SAS code.)
2. Click the Submit to SAS icon .
You can also right-click in the Program Editor window and select Submit to SAS. The menu item also
includes the name of the active SAS server that the SAS code will be submitted to.
You can also press the F8 key (press COMMAND-SHIFT-R on Macintosh).
