Project Baseline

A baseline captures the original planned schedule, tasks, and milestones of a project, serving as a benchmark for measuring actual progress. Once the project is created, users can select the Update Baseline action to refresh the Baseline Start Date and Baseline End Date based on the current plan.

Show Deviation Action: The “Show Deviation” action compares baseline dates with actual task dates and highlights schedule variances using intuitive color codes on start and end dates:

• Red highlighted: Task is significantly delayed beyond the planned schedule.
• Orange highlighted: Task is slightly delayed beyond the planned schedule.
• Green highlighted: Task is on track or completed within the planned timeframe.

This visual representation enables quick identification of scheduling issues, empowering teams to take timely corrective actions.
