• If a previous error has not occured and restart functionality is allowed (WORKTEMPINWORK is not Y):
  • Copy current dplocal and msoc datasets to dptemp and msoctemp.
  • At restart, datasets in dptemp and msoctemp will replace dplocal/msoc counterparts.
  • Delete prior environment and save current SAS environment.
