Description
specifies a description of the query.
Unique values
specifies whether the SQL keyword DISTINCT is applied to the SELECT statement that is used to generate the result set for the query.
Append data
specifies whether the result set for the query is appended to the output table. If a staging table is used, then the staging table is replaced with the result set before appending to the output table.
Manual code
specifies that the query uses the SQL that is written by the user on the Code tab when the check box is selected. For more information, see Customizing Code.
Table
specifies the table name for either the staging output or the final output.
Location
specifies the metadata folder location to use for registering the staging table or output table metadata.
Library
specifies the library to use for the staging table or output table.
Partition by
specifies the column to use for partitioning the output table. This property applies when the output table is in a SAS LASR Analytic Server library or SAS Data in HDFS library only. For more information, see Partitioning Tables.
