Compare to baseline

[Earnest A Thomas]

Hi,

How can I compare an existing project to it's baseline?

TIA,
Earnest

Hi

if you've saved a baseline (tools / tracking / save baseline) then current
Vs baseline can be seen using the tracking gantt (view / tracking gantt).

for cost information use the cost table (view / table: cost)

You can see the comparison in several dirfferent tables. The Cost table and
Variance table are two that come immediately to mind. Also in the Project
Information menu item, Statistics button. Finally, the various Earned Value
table will compare current progress to baseline.

Hi Steve,

What exactly is a cost/variance table? Where can I access it?

Hey,

I got it - View-> Table Tracking.

Thanks,

In the View menu choose Tables. Among the tables listed in the menu you'll
find baseline information in the Cost, Tracking, Variance, and Work tables.
If you select More Tables at the bottom of the list you'll find a library of
additional tables and many of them include baseline data as well. Finally
you can customize any table or completely roll your own and you'll find many
baseline fields in the list of available columns you can use.
