Hi
I was wondering what is the difference in SAS Miner between the prediction and target role. Do I need to pick prediction if my target is numeric continuous and target if it is binary?
Thanks
Nicolas
You should use role of Target for your observed (actual) target, whether it is numeric or character. The Prediction role is typically automatically assigned by EM to the variable representing the predicted target from the model (P_target, e.g.). One time when you would assign this role to a variable is if you were using the Model Import node to import predictions from a model.

Good news: We've extended SAS Hackathon registration until Sept. 12, so you still have time to be part of our biggest event yet – our five-year anniversary!
