Baseline's

[Paul_Willie78]

Hi

Can you please explain the need for 11 baseline's. I understand that you can
save them but for the life of me I can't find how to view the other 10. I'm
just stuck with the default... Can anyone please shed some light on this for
me

Cheers Paul

Hello Paul,

In the Bar Styles dialog, add a new bar symbol for the Baseline you want to
see :
Format / bar styles .../ Insert row
From : Baseline 1 Start
To : Baseline 1 Finish

I think of them as being there to hold an audit trail in the event you have
to change baselines due to scope changes. There is one and only one
functional baseline, the record of the project plan that you intend to work
saved as a record before posting actual performance. If someone comes in
half-way through the project with a change that materials makes this a
different project, we should update the baseline with the new tasks. Before
saving the new basleine however, I want to archive a copy of the original
for comparison purposes, if for no other reason than to CYA 'cause I know
the boss is going to want an explanation of why we're slipping over budget.
So I copy the original over to one of those vacant baseline slots and then
save a corrected version into the "operational" baseline.
