Yes indeed the function of Target update is missing. But maybe this helps a little bit.
If you restore the baseline as a project an open the formal baseline and the current project you wil be able to sort (or organize) on activity ID. What you get is current and baseline activity grouped together so its easier tot compare (the difference)
This is a known issue in the current version of P3e. I understand it will be rectified in V 5.0 due for release in 1st quarter 2005. This will allow the same functionality that exists in P3 to update the baseline as new tasks are added.

Hi,
Yes indeed the function of Target update is missing. But maybe this helps a little bit.
If you restore the baseline as a project an open the formal baseline and the current project you wil be able to sort (or organize) on activity ID. What you get is current and baseline activity grouped together so its easier tot compare (the difference)
As a workaround you can delete and recreate the baseline assuming you have not changed other activity data.
And if that feature is very important to you, you can develop it using Primavera Ingration API.
Cheers Allan,
So the bottom line appears to be that a very important function/feature does not have much flexibility.
This is a known issue in the current version of P3e. I understand it will be rectified in V 5.0 due for release in 1st quarter 2005. This will allow the same functionality that exists in P3 to update the baseline as new tasks are added.
