Updating the baseline
Hi there! I wanted to know if there is a process to update the baseline or the current program by making changes in either of them. For example, if I have made changes in my baseline few months after the commencement of the project, is there a way from which I can copy this update into the current program or vice versa? Say I needed to add some activities to the project, change duration of few activities. Is there any way with which I can incorporate only these changes in the program?
that is correct the baseine should be without progress
Hello,
I just asked about change budget with some additional,
Do anyone know how to change schedule (regarding to budget) on the ongoing schedule? then, what about the progress(percentage) that has been running or paid by owner?
thanks
Hi guys!
I think I found the solution, correct me if I am wrong. I added the activities to the live update, cost, resources etc then I tool that Live update and reverted it back to the be the baseline by changing the actuals back to zero and making all the activities as not started. I don't know if you guys too were suggesting the same.
Thanks
Thanks guys for the reply. What I want to do is to add certain activities in the original baseline. We are few months into the project and the client is asking to add certain activities to the project. I wanted to know that if there is a way possible to make that change simultaneously to both the live update and the original baseline as well in a single go? I think we have to make changes separately to both the live update and original baseline, I hope there is an alternative to this.
Thanks
correct copy the baseline and use the for the 1st update
then for the next update copy the previous schedule and update that
this way you always have a history or a snap shot in time of your progesss incrementially
adopt some naming convention such as
base = Baseline
UP01mmyy= or UP010618 for Update #1 as of 6/12018
UP020718 udate #2 as of 7/1/2018
As the program has already started, the original baseline should not be updated.
Update the live plan & save a new baseline, but keep the original baseline as is.
