Hello Laura-     A SAS data set that contains the variables and the split values (boundaries) is created when you run the Interactive Grouping node with the Create Grouping Data property set to Yes.  (By default the property is set to No.)   For details within the Enterprise Miner user interface, select Help -> Contents -> SAS Credit Scoring -> Interactive Grouping Node -> Interactive Grouping Node Report Properties -> Create Grouping Data.  (See also the Information Value Cutoff property in the Score section.)   Here is a link in case you prefer online documentation. https://go.documentation.sas.com/doc/en/emref/15.2/p1qzwz7onopjqcn11uc04i18urg7.htm#p17c0h1gbzz3kfn12lmwaus2bk4u      That example shows how to view the data.  An easy way to save the data from that example is to add a SAS Code node to the same diagram, and run code like this:   title 'these are the available SAS data sets'; /* see the node log for the results */ proc datasets lib=&EM_LIB.;   run;   quit; title 'check to make sure that you have the one that you want'; /* note the use of double-dot in the macro */ proc print data=&EM_LIB..Ign_exportgroup;   run; /* use your own libref instead of WORK */ data work.mygroups;   set &EM_LIB..Ign_exportgroup;   run;   Have a good week.   ...

Hello sushi_soup -    Your symptoms are consistent with the behavior that occurs when a window opens outside the view of your monitor.  (The issue is not specific to SAS.)  The solution is to move the "hidden" window back into view.  In your case, the Interactive window is opening outside of your view.  Here is a  note that describes the situation and solutions.   Usage Note 57126: SAS® Enterprise Miner(tm) fails to respond when you select a property or windows do not open as expected https://support.sas.com/kb/57/126.html         If you still get messages that the node needs to run even after you ran it, then try this second note.   58851 - Diagnosing and resolving "Unable to open Interactive Decision Tree" errors within SAS® Enterprise Miner(tm) http://support.sas.com/kb/58/851.html   Have a good New Year.     ...

Good morning-   The "right" order depends on what you are trying to do.  The flow that you describe explores the data, drops some variables, filters some observations, imputes missing values, partitions, clusters variables, and then clusters observations based on the results of the variable clustering. If this strategy is your intent, then the order is probably right. It is not clear though how assessment is involved.   SEMMA is usually involved when you have a target variable.  The target predictions can be assessed against the target values that were observed.  In cluster analysis, there is no target variable.  Instead, unsupervised learning is performed.   Have a good week. ...

Hello SQ-   The score code that is created by the HP Forest node includes a PROC HP4SCORE invocation - the code cannot be executed unless Enterprise Miner is installed on the machine that does the scoring.  (I.e., you cannot use just Base SAS to execute the score code.)   There are some details within Enterprise Miner under Help -> Contents -> Node Reference -> HPDM Nodes -> HP Forest Node -> HP Forest Node Requirements.  The Example section of that chapter shows how you can use code for scoring - see Step 6 and beyond.   Thank you for your interest! ...
