I'm following up from an old document Burn that Churn?  Checking Retention of Customers in Predictive Analysis and doing the same analysis but this time using SAP Predictive Analytics 2.2 Expert Analytics - the same data, the same model.  We're looking at the attributes of customers retained and comparing them to those who have left (banking sample customers)

Since we are trying to predict churn, that is the target variable, using the amount of deposits, investment amount, income and number of checking transactions.

After running the model, you can see the execution status above.

Above is the model summary

What is different from when I originally posted?  The above shows a confusion matrix, with a false positive 6% of the time, true positive 94% and a false negative 1% of the time after outputting the results to Excel:
