 About SAS Tasks 1 of 1  

Overview

After you have data in your project, you can create reports and run analytical procedures on the data. To do this, you select a SAS task from the Task List or from the Tasks menu. Some tasks have wizards to guide you through the decisions that you need to make. Wizards are available from menus or from a link next to the related task in the Task List.

In SAS Enterprise Guide, task windows have a common format, so once you are familiar with running one task, running other tasks is easy.
