Overriding Locations in the Performance Report Transformation

You might want to separate report content that is targeted to different groups of report consumers. To do so, you can override these locations in the Performance Report transformation:
  • the metadata folder path from which information maps are used as input
  • the SAS Content Server path to which report content is written
If you specify a value for the SAS macro variable OVERRIDEMAPPATH, the information map is read from that metadata location. If you specify a value for the SAS macro variable OVERRIDEREPOSITORYFOLDERPATH, the report content is written to that location in the SAS Content Server repository. You can specify one or both of these override locations.
For example, you might have a job that contains one or more Performance Report transformations and that is deployed as DT_Perf_Sentry_1_System_Daily_Reporting.sas. In this case, the following SAS program uses the same information map name, but it looks for the information map in the specified overridden location. In addition, any report content that would have been written to the SAS Content Server repository path that is defined in the metadata for the transformations is written to the specified overridden repository path instead. The SAS Content Server repository path to use should already exist. Permissions should be set so that the appropriate users can read from and write to that path.
%LET overrideMapPath=/User Folders/My Name/My Folder;  
%LET overrideRepositoryFolderPath=%str(/SASContentServer/repository/default
                                  /sasdav/My Alternate Location
%INCLUDE ‘DT_Perf_Sentry_1_System_Daily_Reporting.sas’; 
Note: If the deployed job contains multiple Performance Report transformations, these overridden locations, if specified, are used for all such transformations.
