sasCommunity Tip of the Day

SAS listing output contains date and time stamps at the top of each output page. However, the associated SAS logs do not. You can however add a date time stamp to the LOG using a couple of different methods. 

* DATA Step;
data _null_;  
    datetime = datetime();
    put datetime= datetime18.;
run;

Or you can use the macro language. 

%put Job Started Execution at %sysfunc(time(),timeampm.) on %sysfunc(date(),worddate.).;
