The MBANALYSIS Procedure

HIERARCHY Statement

HIERARCHY DATA=CAS-libref.data-table <CAS-libref.data-table…>;

The HIERARCHY statement specifies one or more hierarchical input data tables. If this statement is not specified, then PROC MBANALYSIS performs simple association analysis without a hierarchy. A maximum of five levels of hierarchy is supported. Each level of hierarchy is specified in a separate data table.

You must specify the following option:

DATA=CAS-libref.data-table <CAS-libref.data-table…>: specifies one or more data tables that contain the hierarchy data. A maximum of five levels of hierarchy is supported. Each level of hierarchy is specified in a separate data table. CAS-libref.data-table is a two-level name, where CAS-libref refers to the caslib and session identifier, and data-table specifies the name of the input data table. For more information about this two-level name, see the DATA= option and the section Using CAS Sessions and CAS Engine Librefs.
