Details of the ISHIKAWA Environment |
Syntax
There are only three options that can be specified in the
PROC ISHIKAWA statement,
since the ISHIKAWA procedure is primarily a user-driven procedure.
- DATA=SAS-data-set
- identifies the name of a SAS data set that specifies an existing
Ishikawa diagram.
By default, the procedure will prompt you to edit an
existing Ishikawa diagram or start a new one. When you specify
the DATA= option, the procedure bypasses this initial menu.
For example, the following statements
simplify editing an existing Ishikawa diagram saved in a SAS data
set:
proc ishikawa data=work.airline;
run;
- NEW
- starts a new Ishikawa diagram.
By default, the procedure will prompt you to edit an
existing Ishikawa diagram or start a new one. When you specify
the NEW option,
the procedure bypasses this initial menu and starts
with a new diagram. Do not specify any other options when using
the NEW option.
For example, the following statements
simplify starting a new Ishikawa diagram:
proc ishikawa new;
run;
- NOFS
- allows you to create hard copies of Ishikawa diagrams saved as
SAS data sets without invoking the interactive features of the
procedure.
You must specify the DATA= option when you use the NOFS option.
For example, the following statements
create a hard copy of the Ishikawa diagram saved in the SAS data
set work.airline:
goptions dev=psl noprompt;
proc ishikawa data=work.airline nofs;
run;
