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.

Updating Baseline

I've tried updating a baseline in P6 and even if I change one activity by 5 days I receive the following error message in the log file. Assignment remaining start date cannot be earlier than activity remaining start date. 

Does the baseline not get updated at all if there are errors or will it only not update the activities affected?

I've tried searching for the assignment remaining start date and I can't seem to find it, I don't really fully understand what the error message means. 

Thanks

if it is a true baseline it should never be updated with progress.

Your problem could be the the PROJECT start date is not earlier enough.
