PLS Quick Specs

Select Quick specs dialog in the Specification method list and specify a Type of analysis on the Partial Least Squares Models Startup Panel - Quick tab. Then click the OK button in the Partial Least Squares Models Startup Panel to display the PLS Quick Specs dialog, which contains two tabs: Quick and Options. Note that the title of this dialog will always reflect the Type of analysis that has been selected in the PLS Startup Panel. Use the Quick tab to select and specify the types of variables for your partial least squares model. Use the Options tab to specify additional options for your partial least squares model.

Element Name	Description
OK	Click the OK button to display the PLS Results dialog (or the standard variable selection dialog if you have not already specified your variables).
Cancel	Click the Cancel button to close the dialog without performing an analysis and return to the Partial Least Squares Models Startup Panel.
Options	Click the Options button to display the Options menu.
Syntax editor	Click the Syntax editor button to display the PLS Analysis Syntax Editor; all current specifications (e.g., variable selections, design specifications) in the Quick specs dialog will automatically be transferred (translated) to the syntax editor, and can be further modified or saved. However, note that when you click the < Back button in the PLS Analysis Syntax Editor after introducing additional customizations, those customizations created in the PLS Analysis Syntax Editor will not be translated "back" to the Quick specs dialoges.
