SEVERITYMODEL severity-model-list;
The SEVERITYMODEL statement specifies one or more severity distribution models that you want to use in simulating a compound distribution sample. The severity-model-list is a space-separated list of names of severity models that you would use with PROC SEVERITY’s DIST statement. The SEVERITYEST= data set or the SEVERITYSTORE= item store must contain all the severity models in the list. If you specify the SEVERITYEST= data set and you specify a name that does not appear in the _MODEL_ column of the SEVERITYEST= data set, then that name is ignored. Similarly, if you specify the SEVERITYSTORE= item store and a severity model by that name does not appear in the item store, then that name is ignored.
If you specify more than one SEVERITYMODEL statement, only the first one is used.
If you do not specify a SEVERITYMODEL statement, then this is equivalent to specifying all the severity models that appear in the SEVERITYEST= data set or the SEVERITYSTORE= item store.
A compound distribution sample is generated for each of the severity models by compounding that severity model with the frequency model that you specify in the COUNTSTORE= item store or the external frequency model that is encoded by the COUNT= variable that you specify in the EXTERNALCOUNTS statement.
