To update a process flow diagram, drag and drop tables from the Inventory tree or from
another tree in the tree view. Drag and drop transformation templates from the Process
Library tree.
Alternatively, in the second window of the New Job wizard, you can select no targets
and click Finish after entering a name for the job. The wizard will open an empty job
in the Process Designer window. After you have an empty job, you can create a process
flow diagram by dragging and dropping tables and transformations into the Process
Designer window. This is the approach that is described in “Create and Populate the
New Job” on page 100.
Transformation Generator Wizard
One of the easiest ways to customize SAS Data Integration Studio is to create your
own generated transformations. Unlike Java-based plug-ins that require software
development, generated transformations are created with a wizard.
The Transformation Generator wizard guides you through the steps of specifying
SAS code for a generated transformation and saving the transformation to the current
metadata repository. After the transformation is saved, it is displayed in the Process
Library tree, where it is available for use in any job.
To display the Transformation Generator wizard, go to the SAS Data Integration
Studio desktop, then select Tools ￿ Transformation Generator from the menu bar.
The general information window of the wizard is displayed, as shown in the following
display.

The general information window enables you to enter a name and description for the
new transformation. It also enables you to specify the folder where the new
transformation will appear in the Process Library tree.
