Augment Design Issue - Adding a Factor not working

MetaLizard62080 — Mon, 19 Feb 2024 15:56:41 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to augment a design to add a factor. I followed the advice of this post here: Solved: How do I add a new continuous factor to a DoE via design augmentation? - JMP User Community, where I have adding column properties

but am still running into the following error.

Does anyone have any recommendations to solve the issue?

I redid the instructions from the link you posted without an error and also had no issues in the past so far.

Could you specify at which state the error occurs? When you augment the design?

Have you put in values into the new factor column for the runs of your design where you already have data?

Hi Jonas,

I gave it another attempt and realized I missed one step.

After I added the new column, I did not set the initial values to be numeric. In my version of JMP (16.2), there is a setting now (Initialize Data) which you can set to "constant" to add the starting numbers. Leaving this setting as "Missing/Empty" led to the error.
