About SAS Management Console

SAS Management Console is a desktop application for performing administrative tasks that are related to certain SAS applications. Use SAS Management Console for tasks such as the following:
  • organizing users into groups.
  • assigning users and groups to SAS application roles. Roles control the availability of application features such as menu items.
  • creating and managing folders to organize SAS content (for example, libraries, tables, and reports).
  • assigning permissions to control access to SAS content.
To start SAS Management Console and get started with these tasks, see Administering SAS: The Basics. Be sure to review SAS Management Console System Requirements.
Note: SAS Management Console is available only to users who are assigned to the SAS administrator role. As a best practice, users should be assigned to this role only if they are responsible for the tasks in the preceding list.
