Not all non-normal data can be transformed to be normal.  Consider
nonparametric control charts as an option.

Subject: How to transform Non-NORMAL data to NORMAL data in SAS?

Hi, there

Just worried about how to deal with the non-normal distributed sample
data.
Since we want to apply common Control Chart and Process Capability
Analysis
to the actual data,
which are far away from the standard continuous normal distribution,
I am asking your help how to transform the data into a normal-like form?

What's these possible transformation methods I can try?

Any good exemplification or example?

Thanks a lot.

Fred
