SAS Integration Functions
Async(0|1) A Boolean. If True (1), the submit occurs asynchronously (in the background). Use the
Get Submit Status() message on the SAS Server Scriptable Object to determine the status of the
submit. The default value is False (0).
ConvertCustomFormats(0|1) A Boolean. When SAS data sets generated by submitted SAS code
are imported into JMP after the submit completes (see Open Output Datasets), the value of
ConvertCustomFormats determines whether an attempt is made to convert any custom formats
found on columns in the SAS data to JMP value labels. The default value is True (1).
DeclareMacros(var1, var2, ...) JSL variable names. Provides a simple way to pass the values
of JSL variables to SAS as macro variables. Each JSL variable specified should evaluate to a string or
numeric value. Fully qualified JSL variables names, only the variable name is sent to SAS. For
example, namespace:variable_name becomes variable_name in SAS.
GetSASLog(, ) A Boolean. If no arguments are
supplied, the SAS Log is retrieved and displayed in the location indicated in SAS Integration
Preferences. The first argument to GetSASLog can be either a Boolean value or the keyword OnError.
If a Boolean value is supplied, true means display the SAS Log, and false means not to display it.
OnError instructs JMP to only show the SAS Log if an error occurred in the submit. The second
argument to GetSASLog tells JMP where to display the SAS Log. If JMPLog is specified, the SAS Log
is appended to the JMP Log. If Window is specified, the SAS Log is opened in a separate window.
GraphicsDevice(string) or GDevice(string) A string that specifies a value for the
GDEVICE SAS option to be used for graphics generated by the submitted SAS code. The value must
be a valid SAS graphics device. The default value is determined in Preferences.
NoOutputWindow A Boolean. If True, the SAS Output window containing the listing output from
the submission does not appear. The default value is False.
ODS(0|1) If true, additional SAS code is submitted causing ODS results to be generated for the
submitted SAS code. The default value is determined in Preferences.
ODSFormat(string) A quoted string that determines the format of generated ODS results. Valid
values are “HTML”, “RTF”, and “PDF”. The default value is determined in Preferences.
ODSGraphics(0|1) If true, ODS statistical graphics are generated for the submitted SAS code.
Setting ODSGraphics to true causes ODS to also be set to true. The default value is determined in
Preferences.
ODSStyle(string) A quoted string that specifies the ODS Style to use when generating ODS
results. String must be a valid SAS Style. The default value is determined in Preferences.
ODSStyleSheet(path) A quoted string that specifies a local CSS style sheet to use when formatting
generated ODS results. Path must be a path to a CSS file valid for the client machine (the machine
running JMP). The default value is determined in Preferences.
OnSubmitComplete(script) A quoted string that specifies a JSL script that should be run when
the submit completes. This is especially useful for asynchronous submits. If script is the name of a
defined JSL function, that function is executed, with the SAS Server scriptable object passed as the
first parameter.
OpenODSResults(0|1) If true, ODS results that are generated by the submitted SAS code (due to
ODS being true) are automatically opened after the submit completes. The default value is True (1).
OpenOutputDatasets() JMP detects when
submitted SAS code creates new SAS data sets. OpenOutputDatasets (which can be abbreviated
