Understanding Item Stores, Template Stores, and Directories
A template store is an item store which stores items that were created by the TEMPLATE procedure. Items that SAS provides are in the item store SASHELP.TMPLMST. Compiled templates are stored physically in the SASUSER.TEMPLAT item store by default. However, you can store items that you create in any template store where you have write access.
A template store can contain multiple levels known as directories. When you specify a template store in the ODS PATH statement, however, you specify a two-level name that includes a libref and the name of a template store in the SAS library that the libref references.
