proc NPAR1WAY, DSCF option not working

[munitech4u]

I am trying following but its not working:

PROC NPAR1WAY data=sales_mkt DSCF WILCOXON;

    class product;

    exact WILCOXON;

    var sec_pos;

    run;

its throwing error for DSCF option.

Any suggestions?

Guessing here.  The DSCF may be incompatible with the EXACT specification for Wilcoxon.  What happens with:

PROC NPAR1WAY data=sales_mkt DSCF WILCOXON;

    class product;

    var sec_pos;

    run;

If this throws the same error, then contacting Tech Support is probably in order.

It throws the same error. Syntax error.

My suggestion is to show the error message.  Perhaps also include the version of SAS you are using.

[munitech4u]

I am using SAS 9.2. Error message is syntax error.

The CLASS variable has 6 products.

There is the answer.  The DSCF option doesn't appear in the documentation until SAS/STAT12.3 (SAS9.3).  Prior versions (9.2, 9.22) would likely throw a syntax error.

That option is not available in SAS 9.2

The DSCF analysis is available when the number of CLASS variable levels (samples) is greater than 2.

How many levels in your Class variable?

Error message and full log is useful as well.
