What Is SAS Foundation and Related Software?

SAS Foundation refers to the superset of all SAS software that can be deployed with Base SAS, such as SAS/ACCESS and SAS/GRAPH. Therefore, the list of products that constitute SAS Foundation can vary between SAS software orders. In your case, SAS Foundation is the collection of SAS products that was ordered by your company for your site.
Related software consists of SAS products that are neither part of SAS Foundation nor the third-party software your order might require. Related software can be graphical user interfaces, tools, or programming environments that enable you to effectively use SAS products. SAS ODS Graphics Editor and SAS/IML Studio are examples of related software.
