You can create baselines for the entire project from the baseline properties page, or from the work breakdown structure (WBS) page. This procedure details how to create a baseline from the baselines page.
You can create an unlimited number of project baselines. Create an initial baseline before resources enter time on a project. After the initial baseline, you can create additional ones at various intervals. You can create a baseline midway through the project, when different phases complete, or at the end of the project.
The project must be unlocked before you can create a baseline. To perform detailed baselining, open the project in a desktop scheduler, such as Open Workbench or Microsoft Project.
