Import a Model :: SAS(R) Model Manager 12.1: Tutorials

Import a Model

In this exercise, you import a model using the user model template:

Log on to SAS Model Manager.
In the 2012 version of the HmeqVars project, right-click Models and select Import fromLocal Files.
From the Choose a model template box, select ProcArborModelTemplate. The custom properties and files appear in the right pane.
In the Name field, enter ProcArbor.
In the left pane, expand Desktop to <drive>:\Tutorial8\Samples\Model8. The Local Files dialog box displays the template in the right pane and the files to import in the left pane:

From the left pane, drag the following files to the corresponding fields in the model template:

Filename	Template Field Name
importance8.sas7bdat	importance.sas7bdat
modelinput8.sas7bdat	modelinput.sas7bdat
modeloutput8.sas7bdat	modeloutput.sas7bdat
nodestat8.sas7bdat	nodestat.sas7bdat
path8.sas7bdat	path.sas7bdat
rules8.sas7bdat	rules.sas7bdat
score8.sas	score.sas
target8.sas7bdat	target.sas7bdat

Here is the Local Files dialog box after the files have been assigned:

The Local Files dialog box with the new model template fields complete.

Click OK. The ProcArbor model appears under the Models folder.

Verify Model Properties

Verify some model properties:

In the Project Tree, expand the Models folder and select ProcArbor.
In the Properties View, verify BAD as the value of the Target Variable property.
Verify that the Score Code Type property is DATA step.

Here is the ProcArbor model in the SAS Model Manager window:

Map Model Output Variables to Project Output Variables

Because the project output variable name is not the same as the model output variable name, the output variables must be mapped. To map the variables, follow these steps:

Right-click the model name, ProcArbor.
Select the Set Model Output Mapping option to open the Set Model Output Mapping window.
Click the Model Variables column for score, select P_BAD1, and click OK.
