Stored Process Service

The Stored Process Service enables applications to do the following:

• synchronously or asynchronously execute a stored process, which is a SAS language program that is stored on a SAS server. Execution can include accessing SAS data sources or external files and creating new data sets, files, or other data targets that are supported by SAS.

• receive values that have been assigned to input parameters and pass them to a stored process.

• return output from a stored process, either in a results package or in a streaming interface.

For detailed usage documentation and examples, see com.sas.services.storedprocess in the Foundation Services class documentation.
