# Data Controller for SAS® - Dates & Datetimes
## Overview
Dates & datetimes are actually stored as plain numerics in regular SAS tables. In order for the Data Controller to recognise these values as dates / datetimes a format must be applied.

This format must also be present / updated in the metadata view of the (physical) table to be displayed properly. This can be done using DI Studio, or by running the following (template) code:
```
proc metalib;
omr (library="Your Library");
folder="/Shared Data/your table storage location";
update_rule=(delete);
run;
```
