Introduction to Base line

Baselines

A baseline is a group of nearly 20 primary reference points (in five categories: start dates, finish dates, duration, work, and cost estimates) that you can set to record the original project plan when that plan is completed and refined. As the project progresses, you can set additional baselines (to a total of 11 for each project) to help measure changes in the plan. For example, if your project has several phases, you can save a separate baseline at the end of each phase, to compare planned values against actual data.
