To create a project,
follow these steps:
Note: SAS Model Manager does not
support tables or models whose data sets contain special characters
and that were created when the system option VALIDMEMNAME=EXTEND was
set. SAS Model Manager can use tables whose variables contain special
characters only when the SAS Model Manager administrator has enabled
the use of the VALIDVARNAME= system option in SAS Management Console.
For more information, see the
SAS Model Manager 12.1 Administrator’s
Guide.

SAS Model Manager creates a new project folder in the Project Tree.
Here is an example of
a project in the Project Tree:
When SAS Model Manager
creates a project folder, it creates a
Model Retrain node
and a
PerformanceMonitor node. It uses the
project input and output variable tables to create the two XML files.
-
You use the
Model Retrain node
to retrain a champion model after it has been in production for a
while.
-
You use the
PerformanceMonitor node
to execute the SAS programs that create performance monitoring reports.
-
The input and output XML files
are used as project input and output metadata and are published or
exported as part of the model if the model is published or exported
from the project folder.
