In reply to Jaime Llano A.

I also run many programs in batch, scheduled via cron, on SAS for Linux. I use EG to develop and maintain these programs and test them interactively. I save the SAS programs as external files on a shared network space that my account can access via Windows or Linux. (However, if I didn't have that shared space I could use the Copy Files task to move files as needed.)

That's what I recommend -- use EG to prototype the process, iterate as much as needed to get it right, then combine into one or more SAS programs that you can deploy as batch jobs.
