In SAS/CONNECT^®, the %SYSLPUT macro statement is submitted in the client session. %SYSLPUT assigns a value that is available in the client session to a macro variable that can be accessed from the server session. If you are logged on to multiple server sessions, then %SYSLPUT submits the macro assignment statement to the most recently used server session. If you are logged on to only one server session, then %SYSLPUT submits the macro assignment statement to that server session.

However, you can specify the /REMOTE=server-ID option on the %SYSLPUT macro statement. This option identifies the name of the server session that the macro variable will be created in when multiple server sessions are active. For example, you can use the option as follows:

options autosignon=yes sascmd="sas";
%let macro-variable=value;
%syslput macro-variable=&macro-value/remote=task1;
rsubmit process=task1 wait=no;
   %put &macro-variable;
endrsubmit;
