The first
step in creating an information map is to add data sources.
Data sources are references to tables or cubes that
are accessed through a SAS Application Server.
To add as data sources
the tables that you defined in chapter 3:
-
Make sure
that you have started SAS Information Map Studio and are using the
connection profile that you created in chapter 3.
-
On the
toolbar, click

to open a new information map.
-
In the
SAS Information Map Studio main window, select the

tab in the
Resources pane.
-
In the
Show drop-down list, select
Tables.
-
Make sure
that the SAS Application Server node (

) that your tables are associated with is expanded.
-
Expand
the
Sample Employee Data library node (

) that contains the tables that you want to add as
data sources.
-
Select
the
EMPINFO and
SALARY tables (

) and drag them to the
Selected Resources pane to add them as data sources.
