Manager is a group variable. Each detail row of the report consolidates
the information for all observations with the same value of Manager. Department
is an across variable. PROC REPORT creates a column and a column header for
each formatted value of Department. ORDER=FORMATTED arranges the values of
Manager and Department alphabetically according to their formatted values.
FORMAT= specifies the formats to use. The empty quotation marks in the definition
of Department specify a blank column header, so no header spans all the departments.
However, PROC REPORT uses the formatted values of Department to create a column
header for each individual department.
define manager / group order=formatted
format=$mgrfmt.;
define department / across order=formatted
format=$perish. '';
