Compare baseline

Compare baseline

Baseline comparison gives an insight on the open tasks and the total time spent on them. Create baselines to compare and analyze project changes over a given time period.

  1. Navigate to a project and then select Gantt & Reports > Milestone Gantt.
  2. Click   in the upper right corner.
  3. Select a baseline to compare it with the current open tasks in the project. You can deselect it anytime to discard the comparison.
    • Gray and green bars represent the baseline and current tasks respectively. Blue bars are the subtasks.


Example:
Because of the delay in Basement Tiles task, the other dependent tasks are also delayed. Without baseline, it will be tough to spot the bottlenecks. Also, based on your business you can create multiple baselines and compare it with the current schedule to identify the project delay.
