4.6.3 Output | Generate apriori
In many situations it is desirable to coordinate the secondary suppressions between
tables. This can be because of links between tables. Suppressions in one table
should also be suppressions on the other table.
But also when protecting monthly tables it could be a good idea to coordinate
suppressions between the different months. A secondary suppression in month 1
could be an ideal candidate for secondary suppression in month 2. This could be
achieved by changing the suppression weights for these cells.
The apriori option is the way to change the default suppression weights etc. But
this leaves the task of generating the apriori file.
Via this option the protected file as generated by τ-ARGUS can be converted into an
apriori file. The table has to be saved in the format code-value with the ‘Add
Status’-option selected.
