Introduction
You can set baselines and track deviations from the initial schedule to assess the project's performance.
Create and delete baselines for all the tasks or selected tasks. Baselines are displayed as bold lines under tasks. Baseline dates reflect the task position at the moment of adding a baseline.
Baseline fields in column views
The Baseline start date and Baseline end date are stored in BigPicture. Field mapping is NOT available for baseline start/end date - this means that data is stored only in BigPicture and is NOT synchronized with monday board columns.
Baseline dates reflect the task position at the moment of adding a baseline.
