Bill,
Here's how it looks to me right now.
I put together a little test case:
$INPUT ID DOSE=AMT TIME CP=DV WT CMT EVID
$MODEL
COMP=(One,INITIALOFF,NODOSE)
COMP=(PKCENT)
I ran this with a data set in which CMT=2 for both dose and observation
records.
PREDPP gives me the same error message that you reported:
DATA REC 1: COMPARTMENT ASSOCIATED WITH THE PREDICTION IS OFF
NMTRAN makes the assignment of "Default for observations"
inappropriately:
COMPT. NO. FUNCTION INITIAL ON/OFF DOSE DEFAULT
DEFAULT
STATUS ALLOWED ALLOWED FOR DOSE FOR OBS.
1 ONE OFF YES NO NO YES
2 PKCENT ON YES YES YES NO
3 OUTPUT OFF YES NO NO NO
The PCMT data item is needed with dose records to identify the
prediction compartment associated with the dose record, and, when PCMT
is not
defined, this is defaulting to "Default for observations," which is
compartment 1,
which is initially off.
The DEFAULT FOR OBS compartment should have the attribute "INITIAL ON".
Your fix is a good one (specify both DEFDOSE and DEFOBS).
Another fix is to supply the PCMT data item in the data set, and (in my
case) set PCMT=2
This is something that can be fixed with a future version of NONMEM (its
too late for 7.4).

400 records between 16 subjects, and all the data are in
compartment 39 (the central compartment for the current drug).
