General Steps :: SAS(R) Clinical Data Integration 2.3: User's Guide, Second Edition

Overview of the General Steps

To use a SAS Clinical Data Integration job in SAS Drug Development, paths that are specified in the job must be converted to parameters in a SAS Drug Development process. This conversion is needed because paths that are valid in a SAS Clinical Data Integration job might not be valid in the SAS Drug Development Process Editor execution environment.

The following general steps describe the process of publishing and refining a SAS Clinical Data Integration job to use in SAS Drug Development.

Tasks Performed by the Publish to SAS Drug Development Feature in SAS Clinical Data Integration

Identify the paths in the SAS Clinical Data Integration job.

For information about how user-written code is handled, see User-Written Code.
Create SAS Drug Development process parameters from the paths identified in step 1.
Copy the job to SAS Drug Development.

Tasks Performed by You in the Publish to SAS Drug Development Feature

Select the SAS Drug Development server to which to publish the job.
Select the location in SAS Drug Development in which to store the process. (The process is created from the job.)
Specify the input and output folders to use and the locations of the folders in SAS Drug Development.
Specify the WebDAV options, if needed.

Tasks Performed by You in SAS Drug Development

In the repository, create the output folders that are required by the process.

Note: You must have the necessary access permissions to the SAS Drug Development repository.
In the repository, move or copy the input files into the locations that are required by the process.
In the SAS Drug Development Process Editor, verify and refine the process parameters.

For more information, see Refining Process Parameters in the SAS Drug Development Process Editor.
