There might be cases where you would like to modify some SAS system defaults for sessions that are used when running process flow diagrams. The following default command is used when this box is left blank: !sascmdv -noobjectserver -nosyntaxcheck -noasynchio This command has the same effect as using the SAS command that was used to launch the SAS workspace session at the time the project was opened. In the WebDAV URL box, you can optionally enter the URL to your WebDAV server. If you specify a WebDAV server, the SAS Enterprise Miner model result packages that you save will be copied to the WebDAV server location when the model packages are registered. Adding a New Enterprise Miner User Identity in the SAS 9. 2 Management Console This section provides instructions on how a SAS Administrator can create a new Enterprise Miner identity in the SAS Management Console using domain (or machine name) credentials and a user account that already exists on the machine. The user ID must exist on the operating system before the user ID can be created via SAS Management Console. The user ID and password information on the Login tab of the SAS Management Console must exactly match the operating system user ID and password values. Follow the instructions below to create an identity within the SAS Management Console. After you create the new identity, users will be able to log into Enterprise Miner using these credentials. Log into SAS Management Console as Administrator (sasadm@saspw). Use SAS Management Console to create a group for your Enterprise Miner users. In the SAS Management Console window, right-click the User Manager folder and choose New Group. Name your new group 10 "EM Users" or a name that you prefer. 3.

In the SAS Management Console, open the Authorization Manager icon (located just beneath the Environment Management folder) and select Authorization Manager Access Control Template. Right-click on Default ACT and choose Properties. Select the Permission Pattern tab, click the Add button, and move the newly created group from Available to Selected and click OK. Next, grant the group the following authorizations in the Effective Permissions pane: ReadMetaData CheckInMetaData WriteMetaData Then click OK.
