Hello All,

I am trying to use the PROC IRT OUTMODEL= option, but I get errors. My code is attached, and it shows the errors I get. Can someone please explain to me how to correct my code?

Thanks,

Hello @Rover17,

This kind of error message typically occurs when using a syntax element that is only available in a more recent SAS version or maintenance release. Since the OUTMODEL= option was introduced in SAS/STAT 14.1 (see https://support.sas.com/documentation/onlinedoc/stat/141/whatsnew.pdf, p. 8), I suspect that you are using SAS/STAT 13.2 or older. In this case only a software update could make the option available.

Submit

proc product_status;
run;

and see the log to find out your SAS/STAT version.
