SAS® Software Requirements

Metacoda Security Plug-ins are designed to run within the SAS Management Console and must be installed on a workstation that already has SAS Management Console software installed.

There are 2 versions of Metacoda Security Plug-ins currently supported for the 3 major SAS software versions our customers use. The following table outlines which version of Metacoda Security Plug-ins should be used with which SAS software version.

  SAS 9.3 SAS 9.2 SAS 9.1.3 SP4
Metacoda Security Plug-ins V2.0 Metacoda Security Plug-ins V2.0 is supported for use with SAS 9.3 Metacoda Security Plug-ins V2.0 is supported for use with SAS 9.2  
Metacoda Security Plug-ins V1.0   Metacoda Security Plug-ins V1.0 is supported, but not recommended, for use with SAS 9.2. We recommend the newer V2.0 release for use with SAS 9.2. Metacoda Security Plug-ins V1.0 is supported for use with SAS 9.1.3 SP4

The latest version of Metacoda Security Plug-ins is V2.0 and is supported for use with both SAS 9.3 and SAS 9.2. If you would like to use Metacoda Security Plug-ins with SAS 9.1.3 SP4 you will need to use the older Metacoda Security Plug-ins V1.0 which is still supported. Whilst the older V1.0 release was supported for use with SAS 9.2 we now recommend the use of V2.0 with SAS 9.2. V2.0 provides additional components and features specifically for use with SAS 9.2 and SAS 9.3. These include the new Role Reviewer, Capability Reviewer and Internal Login which are not available in the V1.0 release.
