The MPSOUT= option enables you to convert an input data set for the INTPOINT procedure into an MPS-format SAS data set. The converted data set is readable by the OPTLP procedure.
The conversion can handle linear programs and network flow formulations. If you specify a network flow formulation, it will be converted into an equivalent linear program. When multiple objective row names are present, rows with the name encountered first are combined into the objective row. The remaining rows are marked as free rows.
For information about how the contents of the MPS-format SAS data set are interpreted, see ChapterĀ 17: The MPS-Format SAS Data Set in SAS/OR 14.1 User's Guide: Mathematical Programming. For examples that demonstrate the use of the MPSOUT= option and migration to the OPTMODEL procedure, see the section Examples: INTPOINT Procedure.
