(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.
Hello all,
Wanted to get some guidance on this:
We are in the middle of a project. We started working on an extension of time case with the client but took forever to have that accepted. In the meanwhile, we missed some milestones as per the original baseline. Those activities are now in the past. Are we supposed to change the baseline for past activities as per the new extension of time?
thanks!

no you NEVER change a baseline doing that is like palying football and alwasy moving the gola post you can never get a touch down.
If you missed the milestones they should be re-forecasted based on your updated schedulle
If I have understood correctly, I would like to know that why you want to make changes in Baseline program for the past activities ,instead of submitting the update EoT including the mile stone missed , if it is due to reason attributable to Client.If the impact of the updated EoT is more than ,what was submitted before than you are entitled for the resubission.
Al though it also depends on nature of your claim ,if it was full and final or Interim claim.

The general rule is no retrospective changes to either the baseline or the progressed activities. The situation shown is what was current at the time.
My recommendation would be for any milestone that occured after the delay, but before the EOT was granted simply note that subsequently an EOT of XX days has been grated reducing / elimineting the delayed completion.
When you rebaseline the schedule, you can either insert activities at the pont of each delay with a duration equal to the approved EOT (of if the delay was general insert non-working days in the calendar). But this rebaselined schedule should only be used fo reporting going forward. The EOTs are not an excuse for recasting the schedule baseline without agreement from the client.
A lot depends on the terms of your contract.
