HELP PLEASE......

Having returned to MSP after a break of 5 years I find myself a little "rusty".

I’ve produced a programme and set a baseline which shows OK on the Tracking Gant...problem is when I post progress/prog.re-schedule the baseline moves with /stays aligned to the planned bars.

I’m sure that this is a simple fix/error on my behalf but despite the normally excellent MSP Help I can’t seem to solve it.

Any suggestions.

Andy

    Make sure the activities are logic linked correctly, that you have no constraints, you have a critical path identified wthin the project etc.

    When updating a project you must save the baseline firstly ( Save Baseline ).

    Go into Tracking Gantt.

    Insert Columns .... Activity Name / Baseline start / baseline finish / Actual Start / Actual Finish Per complete

    Go to Tools > Tracking > Progress Lines > Input the data / progress line date.

    Input the ACTUAL Start and Finish Dates against each activity. If some activities have started but are incomplete then you must put in a percentage.

    The project is now being progressed.
