Alright here is my problem/question.
I have a part where Datum -A- (Z axis) is not prismatic, however datum -B- (X axis) and -C- (Y axis) are.
I do not have much experience with Iterative alignments other than that I have been to the Level 2 Hexagon class (Just don't use them or have the need too).
My thoughts were, this is a good time, to try an Iterative alignment.
I believe I have that part of the program correct:
I created 6 auto vector points on top (Datum -A-),
then 5 auto vector points on left side (Datum -B-)
then finally 5 auto vector points on the front of the part (Datum -C-).
When I create the Iterative alignment I pick top 6 points as level (Datum -A-),
5 points on left rotate (Datum -B-),
then 5 points on front as origin (Datum -C-).
After completing this Iterative alignment my trihedron doesn't move from before the alignment.
So I constructed planes out of the five points for datum -B- and -C- respectively.
I then origin my "X" to Datum -B- and my "Y" to datum -C-.
How do I origin my "Z", and how do I assign my datum -A- for exact measure? Where did I go wrong? Please any help would be greatly appreciated.

(datum target) is specified as a datum feature, it's datum feature simulator (derived from the math data) is used in establishing the datum reference frame."
Don't grab the first bit and the last bit and ignore what's in between.
