Objectives
 Create a summary table.
 Create a summary report.
 Export summary data to Excel.
Business Scenario
Management wants an HTML report and an Excel file
that include a summary of profits for each product line
and category.
Orion_Profit
Summary Statistics Task

The Summary Statistics task can be used to calculate
summary statistics based on groups within the data. You
can produce reports, graphs, and data sets as output.
Summary Statistics Task

The Summary Statistics task has both a wizard and a
standard task dialog box that can be used to set up results.
These options are available in Advanced View but not in the wizard:
 sorting by a classification variable
 applying a format to a classification variable
 including missing values in calculations
 specifying combinations of classification variables
 If you convert from the wizard to Advanced View, you cannot switch back to the wizard.
Generating Summary Statistics
Management wants a report that summarizes profits for each product line and category. Management
wants to be able to access an HTML report or an Excel file from a shared network drive.
1. Create a new project and add the orion_profit table.
2. To create the summary report and data set, select Describe  Summary Statistics Wizard
in the data grid.
3. In Step 1, you can verify the data and apply a filter if desired. Accept the default settings and click Next.
4. In Step 2, variables are assigned to task roles. Drag Profit into the Summary statistics of pane.
First, drag Product_Line into the For each value of pane, and then add Product_Category.
Click Next.
5. In Step 3, designate the statistics to include in the report. Click Edit.

a. On the Basic tab, clear Standard deviation, Minimum, Maximum, and Number of observations.
b. Select Sum.
c. Change the number of decimal places to 2.
d. Click the Percentile tab and select Median  OK.
6. Continuing in Step 3, select the Box and whisker check box to add a graph to the report.
7. Select the Save statistics to data set check box and click Browse. Enter profit_summary
in the File name field and select Save  Next.
8. In Step 4, delete the default analysis title and enter Summary of Profit by Product Line/Category.
Click Finish.
9. Notice the multiple tabs as part of the task results, including both the Results and Output Data tabs.
Partial Results
10. To create a more descriptive name for the task, right-click Summary Statistics in the project tree and
select Rename. Enter Profit by Product Summary.
11. To automate the export of the output data to Excel, click the Output Data tab. Select Export 
Export Summary Statistics for <libname>.ORION_PROFIT As A Step In Project.
12. In Step 1 of the Export Wizard, verify that Summary Statistics for <library>.ORION_PROFIT
is highlighted. Click Next.
13. In Step 2, select Microsoft Excel Workbooks (*.xlsx) as the output file type. Click Next.
14. In Step 3, select the Use labels for column names check box. Click Next.
15. In Step 4, change the name of the output file.
a. Click Browse and navigate to the location that is specified by your instructor.
b. Enter Profit_Summary in the File name field. Select Save.
 If you clear the Overwrite existing output check box and a file with the same name already
exists, then a new filename is created. The new filename appends the current date and time to
the existing filename.
16. Click Next to review the export settings and click Finish. The Profit_Summary.xlsx file
is exported and an Export File task is added to the project.

Challenge
3. Modifying the Summary Statistics Task Code to Include an Additional Statistic

Insert custom code into the SAS program generated by the Summary Statistics task to calculate
the skewness statistic for employee salary by country.
b. Use the Summary Statistics Wizard to create a report based on the employee_master table.
Rename the task Salary by Country Summary.
Partial Results
c. Reopen the task in Advanced View and modify the underlying code in the Salary by Country
Summary task to add the skewness statistics in the report. Add the SKEWNESS keyword directly
after other listed statistics.
 Skewness is a measure that indicates to what degree the distribution of data values has
a longer tail to the left or to the right. For the salary distribution for both US and AU,
there are a few extreme values at the high end and a concentration of values at the low
end of the distribution, so the right tail of the distribution curve is longer (right-skewed).
For such data, the skewness statistic is greater than zero. If the data is left-skewed, the
skewness statistic is less than zero.
d. Run the task and replace the results. Verify that the additional skewness statistic was added to the
report. Save the Chapter5 project.

Challenge
6. Creating and Applying a Custom Percentage Format

You might want to display a percent sign (%) after the percentage values in your table created by the
Summary Tables task. If you use the PERCENTw.d format, it multiplies data values by 100, and then
adds a percent sign (%) to the end of the formatted value. The Summary Tables task already
multiplied the values by 100 to compute the percent. Therefore, if you use the PERCENTw.d format
to format the values, they are incorrect. Because you do not want the value multiplied by 100, you
need to create a picture format. Use PROC FORMAT to add the percent sign to the value.
a. Complete the Level 2 exercise.
b. Open and run the e105e06 SAS program. This program creates a user-defined format named
MYPCT that rounds values to the nearest tenth and adds a percent sign.
c. Modify AU Salary Report, which was created in the Level 2 exercise. Apply the MYPCT format
by modifying the data value properties for all percentage columns in the report.
 Look for the User Defined category in the Format window.
d. Generate the report and save the Chapter5 project.

6. Creating and Applying a Custom Percentage Format

You might want to display a percent sign (%) after the percentage values in your table created
by the Summary Tables task. If you use the PERCENTw.d format, it multiplies data values by 100,
and then adds a percent sign (%) to the end of the formatted value. The Summary Tables task already
multiplied the values by 100 to compute the percent. Therefore, if you use the PERCENTw.d format
to format the values, they are incorrect. Because you do not want the value multiplied by 100, you
need to create a picture format. Use PROC FORMAT to add the percent sign to the value.
