The Risk Modeling Add-on for SAS^® Visual Data Mining and Machine Learning features an Interactive Grouping node. The node displays counts of events and non-events. However, if you manually merge the levels, the counts might be incorrect. The only counts that are impacted are for the _MISSING_ bin and the first non-_MISSING_ bin.

• The count values for the _MISSING_ bin are changed to 0.
• The count values for the first non-_MISSING_ bin are increased to include what should have been included in the _MISSING_ bin.

There are no errors or warnings.

There is no workaround.
