Set up Activity Sheet Baselines

You can set baselines on Activity Sheets at the program level. On Activity Sheets, baselines can be set for multiple projects or shells, and so affect all activities on the selected project or shell schedule sheets. The baselines you set on the Activity Sheet will affect all of the activities on the selected projects or shells, regardless of which activities are displayed on the Activity Sheet. Setting baselines at the Activity Sheet level can be useful if you are managing several projects or shells as a program. This functionality enables you to have insight into the activities for all of the selected projects or shells, and be able, for example, to discover quickly whether there has been any delay in any of the project or shell activities.

Users with the Edit Data and Structure permission on the project or shell schedule sheet can set or clear baselines for the activities from those projects or shells on the activity sheet.

See Set Schedule Sheet Baselines for further details on baselines.
