NEED HELP WITH SAS FORMATTING - NO ACTUAL DATA SET PROVIDED, QUESTION IS WHAT WORD TO USE

pointing to a data set employee_organization. department variables include administration, stock & shipping, and purchasing.

GIVEN CODE

libname prg2 '/home/STA; proc freq data=prg2.employee_organization ; tables department; run; TO DO

Use a single data step and conditional output to create three files:

work.admin should contain observations for which Department is Administration.

work.stock should contain observations for which Department is Stock & Shipping.

work.purchasing should contain observations for which Department is Purchasing.

Check the log to make sure the number of observations on the created data sets matches those displayed in the results of the proc freq step above.

Use three proc print steps to print the first 3 observations on each of the created data sets.

Having trouble finding correct code where i use conditional output and a single data step

ive tried

data work.admin work.stock work.purchasing; set prg2.employee_organization; if Department ='administration' then output work.admin; if department ='Stock & shipping' then output work.stock; if Department ='purchasing' then output work.purchasing; run; proc print data=work.admin(obs=3); proc print data=work.stock(obs=3); proc print data=work.purchasing(obs=3); run;

but it gives no output data. i also have tried putting a keep statement to keep only department variable but it doesn't work.

NO CODE NEEDED to answer just a syntax question

NO DATA SET NEEDED
