Table 10 summarizes known procedure options or specifications that are incompatible with input CAS tables. In these situations, you must instead input SAS data sets that have the intended order of observations.

| DISTANCE | DSORDER option for ordinal variables in the VAR statement |
| GLIMMIX | Using the internal variable _N_ in programming statements; RESIDUAL option and _RESIDUAL_ keyword in the RANDOM statement |
| GLIMMIX, MIXED |
Continuous effect specifications for the SUBJECT= and GROUP= options in the RANDOM statement |
| HPMIXED | REPEATED statement specifications |
| MIXED | Continuous effect specifications for the SUBJECT= and GROUP= options in the REPEATED statement; an empty effect specification in the REPEATED statement |
