Reasons why you would use Absolute Layout
 Cover Page
 Static Data
 Pre-printed Form
 Single Page Only
Copyright © 2008, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2008, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved.
Reasons why you would use Gridded Layout
 Regions can be dynamically sized
 Accommodate dynamic data
 Ease of use (less syntax)
 Alignment
 Can span more than 1 page

ODS Report Writing Interface
 Invoices
 Form letters
 Report is not rectangular in nature
 Report is very data centric
 Requires special conditional logic
 Need to compute & display special
summarization information
 Need to add narrative information inside a table
