Creating a Stored Process Path

A stored process path is a location where SAS source programs are stored by name. A client can then use the name of the process to execute the program and receive the results.

The SAS Integration Technologies Administrator provides a graphical user interface that allows you to create or modify a stored process path. For general instructions, see Using IT Administrator.

To create a new stored process path using IT Administrator:

1. Open IT Administrator.

2. Select Applications in the Manager Bar.

3. Select the Stored Process Paths folder in the tree view.

4. Select the New button (). A dialog box appears requesting property information for the new stored process path.

5. Enter the name and path, and select one or more logical names that should be associated with the stored process path.

6. When you are finished entering information in the fields, select OK. The new stored process path appears in the tree view.

To modify a stored process path using IT Administrator:

1. Open IT Administrator.

2. Select Applications in the Manager Bar.

3. Expand the Stored Process Paths folder, then select the path you want to modify. The properties area displays:

   Stored Process Path

   The path where the stored process definitions are stored. Enter any changes directly in the Stored Process Path field.

   Logical Names

   The logical names with which this path is associated. To associate the stored process path with a logical name, select the Add button to display the Logical Name Info window. Use this window to select an existing logical name or define a new one, then select OK to add the logical name to the stored process path definition.

4. When you are finished, select the Save button () to save the changes to the server. If you attempt to navigate to another object, the administrator application will prompt you to save any changes you made to the path.
