Set Baselines

Use the Multiple Baselines dialog to set baselines and to rebaseline your project. This dialog lists the baselines that you have already set on the project. When you set a new baseline, its default name is Baseline1 and it is marked as the current baseline. If the project already has a baseline that is named Baseline1, then the new baseline you set is named Baseline2. You can edit the name after you capture the baseline.

Select all levels of the WBS to rebaseline your project, view, or selected tasks. When you rebaseline tasks that have changed, such as changes to a resource's ETC, the data is not rolled up to the summary task level. Data, however, is rolled down to a phase's tasks when you rebaseline at the summary task level.

Follow these steps:

  1. Click Tools, Baselines, Multiple Baselines.
  2. Click New.
  3. Click OK.
