When you set the baseline for a master project, you also set it for the project's subprojects. The master project's baseline data is an aggregation of its own baseline data and its subprojects. It is dynamically aggregated at the time you set the baseline. The master project's resource baseline data is an aggregation of the team baseline data.
When you open a master project that you have not baselined, but one of the subprojects has been baselined, the current baseline for that subproject is displayed in views. For example, if you have a master project with two subprojects, Subproject1 and Subproject2, and only Subproject1 has a current baseline, Baseline1, and you rename that baseline, and you baseline a selected task in Subproject2, then Subproject1's baseline is deleted and is replaced with Subproject2's baseline. Subproject2's baseline is marked as the current baseline.
If you are using Open Workbench with CA Clarity PPM and you create multiple baselines for a master project, a baseline (Baseline1) is created for the master project and its subprojects. When you save the master project back to CA Clarity PPM, the baseline data for the master includes the values from the subprojects. For example, if you have a master project that has a task with 5 hours of ETC, and its two subprojects have a task with 10 hours ETC each, then when you save the project back to CA Clarity PPM, the master project baseline usage is 25 hours.
If you open a master project that you have baselined, and then add a new subproject, the existing subproject's current baseline is saved. If you baseline the master project, the subproject's baseline is replaced by the new baseline. If the master project's subprojects have more then one baseline, the baseline that is marked as the current baseline displays in views.
Note: If you are using Open Workbench with CA Clarity PPM, to keep master project baselines in sync with subproject baselines, do not change which baselines are marked current without first changing them in CA Clarity PPM. When you open a CA Clarity PPM project in Open Workbench, all baseline data defined in CA Clarity PPM is loaded into Open Workbench.
