68. Jan 05IT Services—U of S68 SPSS Production Facility The Production Facility provides the ability to run the program in an automated fashion. The program runs unattended and terminates after executing the last command, so you can perform other tasks while it runs. Production mode is useful if you often run the same set of time- consuming analyses, such as weekly reports. The Production Facility uses command syntax files to tell the program what to do. A command syntax file is a simple text file containing command syntax. You can use any text editor to create the file. You can also generate command syntax by pasting dialog box selections into a syntax window or by editing the journal file. After you create syntax files and include them in a production job, you can view and edit them from the Production Facility.
