Introduction

To assess the performance of the project over time, you can set baselines and track deviations from the initial schedule.

Baselines can be synchronized with Jira. The synchronized fields can be added to the column views.

You can create and delete baselines for all the tasks in the scope of the box or selected tasks only. Baselines are displayed as bold lines and show the position of the task at the moment of creating the baseline.
