SAS/Warehouse Administrator Metadata Types WHTBLMAP 257 WHTABLE and its children are independent types. To understand how all subtypes of WHTABLE relate to other types, see the models in “Relationships Among Metadata Types” on page 53. WHTBLMAP Metadata type for intermediate output tables produced by column mapping processes Category: Object Types—Intermediate Output Tables Parent “WHTBLPRC” on page 259 Overview WHTBLMAP models the metadata for intermediate output tables that are produced by column mapping processes in SAS/Warehouse Administrator. In the Process Editor, these tables are represented as text boxes that are labeled Mapping. For details about how intermediate output tables are displayed in the Process Editor, see “Reading Process Flow Metadata” on page 62. Properties The following table lists all of the properties for WHTBLMAP and indicates how you can use each property with metadata API methods. In the table, you can specify properties with a Yes in the Indirect Add column when you indirectly add one object through another, as described in the documentation for the _UPDATE_METADATA_ method. Use this approach to add a new dependent object. For details, see “Using _UPDATE_METADATA_” on page 46. You can pass properties with a Ye s in the Update column to the _UPDATE_METADATA_ method, as described in the documentation for this method. Use this method to update properties of an existing object. For details, see “Using _UPDATE_METADATA_” on page 46. * Req indicates that the property is required; you must provide a value for this property when you use a given method. * Default indicates that the system will provide a default value for that property if you do not provide one. * Auto supplied means that the property is automatically supplied; any value that you specify for such a property is ignored. Properties with a Ye s in the Read Method Expand Parm column are valid with the expand parameter of the _GET_METADATA_ method. This method enables you to get detailed metadata about a property and its associated objects through a single method call. Properties Type Indirect Add Update Method Read Method Expand Parm.

WHTBLPRC Base metadata type for intermediate output tables produced by processes Category: Object Types—Intermediate Output Tables Parent “WHTABLE” on page 254 Overview WHTBLPRC is the base metadata type for intermediate output tables that are produced by processes in SAS/Warehouse Administrator. In the Process Editor, these tables are represented as text boxes with appropriate labels such as Mapping, User Exit, and so on. For details about how intermediate output tables are displayed in the Process Editor, see “Reading Process Flow Metadata” on page 62. Properties The following table lists all of the properties for WHTBLPRC and indicates how each you can use property with metadata API methods. In the table, you can pass properties with a Yes in the Add column to the _ADD_METADATA_ method. Use this method to add a new object. You can pass properties with a Ye s in the Update column to the _UPDATE_METADATA_ method. Use this method to update properties of an existing object. * Req indicates that the property is required; you must provide a value for this property when you use a given method. * Default indicates that the system will provide a default value for that property if you do not provide one.

It is a placeholder only. (The This process has no output data selection has been made on the process properties Output Data tab.) An analogy would be a DATA step that performs processing but is coded with DATA _NULL_. 1—Yes, this table has output data.

WHTBLREC Metadata type for intermediate output tables produced by record selector processes Category: Object Types—Intermediate Output Tables Parent “WHTBLPRC” on page 259 Overview WHTBLREC models the metadata for intermediate output tables that are produced by record selector processes in SAS/Warehouse Administrator. In the Process Editor, these tables are represented as text boxes that are labeled Record Selection.

Properties The following table lists all of the properties for WHTBLREC and indicates how you can use each property with metadata API methods. In the table, you can specify properties with a Yes in the Indirect Add column when you indirectly add one object through another, as described in the documentation for the _UPDATE_METADATA_ method.
