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.

Hi Salman,

There are two alternatives that you can perform.

1. You can do this by updating the baseline. But, be careful with this because it is a little bit complicated and dangerous. Always create backup to your schedule.

2. By restoring your baseline and do the necessary modification as what you have done to your current schedule. This is safe but time consuming.

Regards,

Arnold

Hi Wafa,

Since you copy and paste the project then modified it, it doesn’t influence the others. However, if you delete some activities it will affect the project but it does not affect the baseline schedule.

Arnold
