Setting the mode

Modeler Mode Settings. On the Mode tab, you can choose from the following modes:

  • Traditional SPSS Modeler mode shows all available nodes and expressions in the user interface.
  • Analytic Server mode shows only the nodes and expressions supported by Analytic Server. But note that some nodes and some CLEM expressions will still be displayed even though they're not fully supported by Analytic Server. The following table provides general information about which nodes are supported, partially supported, and unsupported by Analytic Server.

See Supported nodes for further details.

See the Analytic Server documentation for more information about Analytic Server.

Note that if you configure SPSS® Modeler to show database nodes on the Database Modeling palette, they will not be impacted when switching modes. The database nodes will always be displayed. If you use IBM Db2 for z/OS or IBM Netezza integration, in some cases those nodes may disappear from the Database Modeling palette after switching to Analytic Server mode. If this happens, go to Tools > Options > Helper Applications and reset the check boxes.
