Favorite Things about SAS 4.2 Enterprise Guide

0

Are you still debating on the move to the SAS 9.2 environment? Still? Here are some things I REALLY like in the new product. Good work SAS!

  1. Allows you to pick which Metadata Server to connect to on initiation. This is of EXTREME value to those who used multiple environments for development and production.
  2. KPI Gui Interface (Already have a youtube video on this new functionality: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bo63l0kaqRI)
  3. You can recover the EGP project file if - for some reason - Enterprise Guide crashes
  4. Report Editor allows you to combine output into one file
  5. Send a file from EG to Add-in to MS Office
  6. Download/upload server .sas7bdat files to local machine
  7. OLAP Cube Viewer ~ Percent of Total available from Right Click
