Use this field to specify the full path and name to the SAS data set containing the corresponding experimental design information for the
Third Tall Data Set
.
An EDDS is a SAS data set that provides information about the columns of a tall data set. It describes relevant experimental
variables
such as treatment conditions and
covariates
as well as a variable named
ColumnName
. Entries in the
ColumnName
column must exactly match the column names in the input tall data set. EDDSs have certain constraints that must be followed for the processes to run successfully.
An EDDS is frequently constructed using information from a corresponding
experimental design file (EDF). An EDDS contains many of the same columns as an EDF, but, unlike the EDF, must be saved as a SAS data set (
.sas7bdat
). Many of the input engines that generate a tall data set from raw data files also automatically generate the needed EDDS.
An EDDS is required by most processes using a tall input data set. Processes using wide SAS data sets (most of the
Genetics
processes, for example) do not require an EDDS.
For detailed information about the files and data sets used or created by JMP Life Sciences software, see
Files and Data Sets

The method used for this specification can vary depending on whether JMP is connected to SAS on your local machine or connected to SAS on a server. You should refer to the
Specifying Folders, Files, and Data Sets
documentation for detailed information.
