What’s New in SAS Decision Manager 3.2

The brm.runtime.codetype property controls whether SAS Decision Manager generates DS2 code or SAS DATA step (DS1) code for rule flows. See Business Rules Manager Web Advanced Properties in SAS Decision Manager: Administrator’s Guide for more information.

The brm.folder.config.enabled property and the Folder Administration capability in SAS Management Console enable you to define a role for a business rules folder administrator. Users assigned to this role control which groups have access to business rules folders and the location of tests and test data for that folder. See Enable Business Rules Folder Administration in SAS Decision Manager: Administrator’s Guide for more information.

SAS Decision Manager provides several macros for importing and exporting vocabularies, terms, lookup tables, rule sets, and rule flows to and from the Decision Manager database. You can limit the ability to run these macros by setting the correct properties and configuring identities in SAS Management Console. See Configure the Ability to Import and Export Content in SAS Decision Manager: Administrator’s Guide for more information.

You can import SAS analytic store models that are created using SAS Factory Miner or by using the HPFOREST and HPSVM procedures in Base SAS. You can use a SAS analytic store model (SASAST) file to import an analytic store model into SAS Decision Manager. However, SAS analytic store models that are created by using SAS Enterprise Miner and that are in SAS package file (SPK) format are not supported in this release. For more information, see Import a Model from a SAS Analytic Store File.

You can publish, score, monitor performance, or run reports for SAS analytic store models that are located within a project. SAS analytic store models can be published only to Hadoop and Teradata. Retraining of SAS analytic store models is not supported. For more information, see the following:

Users who are configured to use single sign-on web authentication by Kerberos can publish models to Hadoop and Teradata. For more information, see Configure Users Authenticated by Kerberos for Publishing Models in SAS Decision Manager: Administrator’s Guide.

When you are creating a scoring test for a model, you can choose to process the scoring test data in a High-Performance Analytics production environment. For more information, see Create a Scoring Test.

SAS Model Manager portfolio macros enable you to score SAS Factory Miner models that are within a SAS Decision Manager portfolio. For more information, see %MM_ScorePortfolioModels Macro in SAS Model Manager: Macro Reference.

SAS Model Manager portfolio macros enable you to publish SAS Factory Miner models that are within a SAS Decision Manager portfolio to a database or Hadoop. For more information, see %MM_PublishPortfolioModelsDB in SAS Model Manager: Macro Reference and %MM_PublishPortfolioModelsHadoop in SAS Model Manager: Macro Reference.
