SAS Model Manager enables you to create a portfolio in the
model repository. You use a portfolio to manage multiple projects and models in one place. From a
portfolio level, you can create multiple projects from a control table and then add
new versions or new
input variables to all projects within the portfolio. After you set the
champion model for each project, you can monitor the performance of the
champion models for all projects and publish the
champion models to the SAS Metadata Repository.
Portfolios are also created when you use SAS Factory Miner to register projects to
the model repository. The portfolios contain the project segments and models from
the SAS Factory Miner
project. For more information about how to register SAS Factory Miner project segments
and models, see SAS Factory Miner: User’s Guide
Note: Because of how portfolios
and projects are created in the SAS Model Manager model
repository, SAS Factory Miner project names, model names, and segment
variable values cannot contain special characters. That is, only alphanumeric
characters, the underscore, and the hyphen are allowed. Users are
unable to register models when special characters are encountered.
