The MPE_TABLES row registered services/hooks/mpe_derived_postedit, but no mock counterpart existed, so a submission to the now-visible control table skipped the checks the server hook runs and only failed later, when the EDIT screen tried to build the view. The hook mirrors mpe_derived_postedit.sas in its order: normalise the incoming rows, reject a duplicate name and a bad field, then check the dependency graph the resulting configuration would have - an inactive dependency, a self reference, a reference the row does not declare, a declared input the expression never uses, a name an active RLS rule uses, and a cycle, whose path is reported. The collision with a physical column stays with the read-time engine, as on the server. A hook rejects a submission by setting hookErrmsg, which stagedata/loadfile turn into a sasjsAbort before anything is staged; that is the mock's equivalent of the hook's %mp_abort.
Data Controller for SAS
Control your manual data modifications!
Alternatives to Data Controller include:
- 💾 Developing / testing / deploying / scheduling overnight batch jobs to load files from shared drives
- 🔒 Opening (and locking) datasets in Enterprise Guide or SAS® Table Viewer to perform direct updates
- ❓ Asking a #DBA to run validated code after a change management process
- 🌐 Building & maintaining your own custom web application
- 🏃 Running #SAS or #SQL updates in production
Problems with the above include:
- Legacy 'black box' solutions with little to no testing, documentation or support
- End users requiring direct write access to critical data sources in production
- Upload routines that must be manually modified when the data model changes
- Breaches due to unnecessary parties having access to the data
- Inability to trace who made a change, when, and why
- Reliance on key individuals to perform updates
- Building bespoke ETL for every new data source
- High risk of manual error / data corruption
Data Controller for SAS® solves all these issues in a simple-to-install, user-friendly, secure, documented, battle-tested web application. Available on Viya, SAS 9 EBI, and SASjs Server.
An individual Viya deploy can be done in just 2 lines of #SAS code!

Development
Lighthouse CI
This project includes automated Lighthouse performance and accessibility checks that run on pull requests. The checks ensure:
- Accessibility Score: Minimum 1.0 (100%) median score across all tested pages
The Lighthouse CI workflow:
- Sets up the development environment with SASjs server and mocked services
- Builds and serves the Angular frontend
- Installs Chrome and runs
lhci autorun(Lighthouse CI) against key pages - Uploads results as artifacts for review
To run Lighthouse checks locally:
cd client
npm install
npm run lighthouse
Configuration is in client/lighthouserc.js (URL list, desktop preset, Chrome flags, assertions).
