Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Baseline Target Schedule

I am using P6 V6.2. When I create a baseline using Create from Current Schedule it is not saving the latest / current schedule. Every month I need to generate snapshot target or new baseline of this month status. We use this to measure variance between each progress update. Is there a trick? (I was able to do this all the time with V7). Is there a toggle that I need to turn on/off?

Under Admin Preferences tab Earned value under Earned Value Calculations make sure you have "Budgeted values with current dates" selected.

 

Hope this also helps

Hi Mary,

To create a baseline, go to projects then follow this sequence, Maintain basleine, Assign baseline and then go to your Bars icon and tick either your primary or secondary baseline bar depending on what you need to see.

Regards,

Daniel
