Selecting this option provides a coding system for missing values. This system allows estimation of a predictive model despite the presence of missing values. It is useful in situations where missing data are informative. See Informative Missing for more details.
Saves your Fit Model launch window specifications as a script that is attached to the data table. The script is named Model. When a table contains a script called Model, this script automatically populates the launch window when you select Analyze > Fit Model. (Simply rename the script if this is not desirable.)
For details about JSL scripting, see the Scripting Guide.

Depending on the model choice, the Convergence Settings menu includes the following options:
Default values for the Maximum Iterations and Convergence Limit are 100 and 0.00000001, respectively. You can click on these values to enter new values for these limits. If you have a very large data set or a complicated model, you might want to limit the number of iterations. If your model does not readily converge, you might want to either increase the Maximum Iterations or increase the Convergence Limit.
Note: This option appears only for certain personalities or if REML is selected as the method in the launch window.
