Pareto Plot Per Unit Rates error messageI am trying to use the Pareto Plot Platform to perform per unit analysis.
I've tried to set up my data in the same structure as what I find in the example: Help > Sample Data Folder and open Quality Control/Failuressize.jmp
I've followed the example instructions in "Example of a Non-Constant Sample Size across Groups" I'm successfully using the sample data and get results as expected.
When I try this same setup and method using my own data I'm not successful and receive an error message
I'm using JMP17.
What does the error message describe? I've checked the column properties of the JMP example data and my own data have the same column properties. Please advise.

Perhaps you have causes with no data? Or your data type is wrong? I'm sure some of our community experts on JSL will have a more definitive answer.

Thank you in advance for the help
Re: Pareto Plot Per Unit Rates error messageHi All,
Thank you all for your suggestions. I appreciate you taking the time to read this and try to help.
Here is the solution I came up with today after playing more with the data.
In my "Y, Cause" column, labeled "Type" in my data table, one of the defects was "Stain". I replaced "Stain" with a different word and then the Analyze > Quality and Process > Pareto Plot, Per Unit Analysis, runs just fine. I don't know why, but it appears that it didn't like the text "Stain".
I didn't change anything else in my data table. I'm puzzled as to why this fixed the error problem I was having.
If anyone can explain why this is happening to me I'd appreciate it, because we do have an actual visual inspection defect called "Stain", so we do have factory data we would like to continue to analyze.
