Hi Gabriel, thank you very much for your interest in xtbreak.
xtbreak requires a strongly balanced dataset, your dataset is only weakly balanced. To me it looks like some units are missing some time periods. Can you try to remove those?
Please let me know if you have further questions.

I've been trying to use the "xtbreak" command in my analysis. However, when I attempt to run it, I receive the following error message:
I'm uncertain whether this command is appropriate for my data given its characteristics. Could you please provide guidance on how to proceed or suggest an alternative approach?
Thank you so much
