Create Association Node

First create a workflow and identify or create a data source.


Note:

The data used to build an Association model must be in transactional format.

Follow these steps to create an Association node:

  1. Open the Components window and select Workflow Editor, if it is not already open.

  2. In the Workflow Editor, expand Models, and click Association.

  3. Move the mouse to the workflow; click.

  4. The GUI shows that the node has no data associated with it; it cannot be built.

  5. Move to the node that provides data for the build; right-click, and select Connect from the context menu; drag the line to the Association node; click again.

  6. The Edit Association Build Node is launched.

  7. For an Association node, you must specify one or more Case IDs and a Item ID. You may select an Item Value. The default Item Value is <Existence>, indicating that an item in the market basket. Click OK when you are done with the definition.

  8. After you finish the node definition, the node should be ready to build. Right-click the node and select Run from the menu.
