I want to create intervals under my grouping bins in SAS Visual Analysis. I Googled and found this pertinent info in the relevant section of the documentation. http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/vaug/67500/HTML/default/viewer.htm#n133d7vjj5losnn0zber8iw4vzum.htm

But apparently my interface behaves differently than the one in the documentation.

All MCC code (data-field rows) with field-values between 3501-3786 will be included into the Hotel category. But I do not see the interval option. Only the option of dragging single fields over to the groups that I have created.

PS. I have selected the ‘classic interface’ in SAS VA, to enable users to export content from the data. I don’t know if this has any bearing on the solution.

Can you please help?

  • What version of SAS VA do you have? Is the field a character or numeric field? – Reeza Aug 28 '17 at 14:58
  • We are running the latest version of VA v. 7.4 Hotfix 2. The format shows a '$'. What is it then? – Excaliburst Aug 29 '17 at 06:07
  • Its a character field, which doesn't lend itself to an interval option. A numeric variable would. – Reeza Aug 29 '17 at 14:46
  • Thanks Reeza, I figured it out yesturday. I made a 'treatas' numeric on this field. This way I enabled the interval grouping. :) Write it up as a solution. And I will credit you with the solution. – Excaliburst Aug 30 '17 at 11:24
