SAS/FRAME NAVIGATION

SAS/Frame is underpowered compared to newer SAS/BI components; however, from a cost point of view SAS/Frame is very attactive. The most attactive point is that SAS/Frame programming is very easy.

Navigation Control is the single most important item when programming in SAS because it can make or break your entire work effort. The make-or-break difference is dependent on the ability to separate Navigation Control logic from all other logic.Navigation Control is structural in nature and most of the programming is executed off-screen. General users see a few visual aspects in the form of buttons for next or previous screen.

SUCCESS METRICS

  • Developers and QA can test navigation without any other programming enabled.
  • Widgets not related to navigation are disabled by default.
  • Logic that controls navigation can be modified through external data.
