Hi Guys,



To solve this problem,



Please go to

1. Admin

2. Select the Tab:- Admin Preferences

3. Select the section :- Earned Value

4. Please go to the bottom of the pop up under "When Calculating Earned Value from a baseline use":-

select "AT COMPLETION VALUES WITH CURRENT DATES"



This will solve your problem and you will get the correct date.

Hi Luca.

Which date field the baseline take from is based on what timescale you choose.



Current Bar: Represents the Start Date to Finish Date.



Actual Bar: Represents the Actual Start Date to Actual Finish Date



Remain Bar: Represents the Remaining Start Date to Remaining Finish Date.



Plan Bar: Represents the activity’s Planned Start Date to Planned Finish Date.



If you wanna compare to Start & Finish field ,you should choose Current Bar in Timescale.



Thanks

Hi

Assuming you created and assigned a project as baseline and you are showing the right one (project, primary, etc...) I notice that P5 when is baselining is taking the dates from the planned start and finish fields.

If these two are not alligned with the Start and Finish fields you may have funny results.
