| BY Statement |
You can specify a BY statement with PROC LOGISTIC to obtain separate analyses on observations in groups that are defined by the BY variables. When a BY statement appears, the procedure expects the input data set to be sorted in order of the BY variables. If you specify more than one BY statement, only the last one specified is used.
If your input data set is not sorted in ascending order, use one of the following alternatives:
Sort the data by using the SORT procedure with a similar BY statement.
Specify the NOTSORTED or DESCENDING option in the BY statement for the LOGISTIC procedure. The NOTSORTED option does not mean that the data are unsorted but rather that the data are arranged in groups (according to values of the BY variables) and that these groups are not necessarily in alphabetical or increasing numeric order.
Create an index on the BY variables by using the DATASETS procedure (in Base SAS software).
If a SCORE statement is specified, then define the training data set to be the DATA= data set or the INMODEL= data set in the PROC LOGISTIC statement, and define the scoring data set to be the DATA= data set and PRIOR= data set in the SCORE statement. The training data set contains all of the BY variables, and the scoring data set must contain either all of them or none of them. If the scoring data set contains all the BY variables, matching is carried out between the training and scoring data sets. If the scoring data set does not contain any of the BY variables, the entire scoring data set is used for every BY group in the training data set and the BY variables are added to the output data sets that are specified in the SCORE statement.
Caution: The order of the levels in the response and classification variables is determined from all the data regardless of BY groups. However, different sets of levels might appear in different BY groups. This might affect the value of the reference level for these variables, and hence your interpretation of the model and the parameters.
