Tip: Using SCM and SAS/Warehouse Administrator
SAS/AF includes a "hidden gem" called Source Code Manager (SCM). This offers check-in/check-out and version control with automatic archiving for catalogs, catalog entries and even SAS tables in a development environment.

This is indispensible in a multi-developer project - such as a data warehouse. Whilst the SAS Help provides a guide to using the software "stand alone" it can also be used alongside SAS/Warehouse Administrator. This paper explains how.

Note, this topic is also covered in a SEUGI paper - see the papers section of this site.

More tools and tips coming here soon.
