I am attempting to put together a four-level CCM using the runmlwin command. As shown below, the "firm" at level 3 is nested within home countries at level 4, while the host country and industry are cross-nested.
You can find examples that replicate the MLwiN manuals using runmlwin at https://www.bristol.ac.uk/cmm/software/ ... /examples/. I would suggest looking at the example for Chapter 15 of the MCMC guide, as this covers setting up cross-classified models.

Unfortunately, however, the examples provided are not directly relatable due to the complexity of my model. Could you perhaps shed a bit more light on running the model (e.g., runmlwin command)? I am attaching a picture showing the data structure.
I have used: runmlwin s_roa cons, level6(home : cons) level5(firm: cons) level4(industry: cons) level3(host: cons) level2(unit: cons) level1(year: cons) mcmc(cc) initsprevious nopause, although I do not believe it to be forrect

What you have written is correct for a cross-classified model
Once you specify mcmc(cc), the ordering of the levels is irrelevant.
