Issue with baselining and shared .mpp files?

H

Hannah Wolf

I've been working with a project "portfolio" file in MS Project (where each
project is a task with resources assigned), linked to a separate .mpp file
which serves as our resource pool. There are no tasks established in the
resource pool, but the pool's Resource Usage view reflects the hours
established in the portfolio file.

In trying to establish Baseline Work hours in the portfolio file, I've run
into a problem with the resource pool file "overwriting" the portfolio file.
For example, I entered a task in the portfolio file, assigned resources and
set the baseline. Baseline Work hours were displayed in the portfolio, but
when I saved, closed and reopened the portfolio file (which automatically
launches the resource pool), the Baseline Work hours were no longer there.

Has anyone ever run into this problem?
