The TREE Procedure

PARENT Statement

PARENT variables ;
The PARENT statement specifies a character or numeric variable identifying the node in the tree that is the parent of each observation. The PARENT variable must have the same formatted length as the NAME variable. If the PARENT statement is omitted, PROC TREE looks for a variable called _PARENT_. If the _PARENT_ variable is not found in the data set, PROC TREE issues an error message and stops.
