The Document Manager is an enhanced file management tool that enables you to seamlessly access SAS^Ž code, log, and output stored anywhere, either on your own hard drive, network drives or remote servers and hosts, as easily as if they resided on your own workstation.

The Document Manager is the primary access point to the ASAP ™ application. Closely coupled with the Editor, Visualizer, and Site Manager tools, the Document Manager enables you to retrieve, manipulate, and execute files across your enterprise.

In addition, the Document Manager also recognizes related documents (e.g., execution log – program_name.log, execution output – program_name.lst, etc.) and manages them as a unit (package/set) regardless of locations. This means when ASAP ™ transfers a SASŽ program from the remote server to the local workstation during remote execution, all related documents will be transferred automatically behind the scenes.
