    How do i extract certain information from the schedule & presented into a report format in tables. I would like to compare the baseline start / finish against the current start / finish of only a certain of the activities (not all of them). Can you advise. Thanks

    • Nenad Trajkovski says:

      USe Varinace Table. TO see only a Certain Tasks, use a filter. If you neeed you can assign Custom field to Tasks, so you can filter them like that!

    Hello;

    Thank you for writing this. Very usefull. Is cash flow the baseline data? or it has anything based on actual cost information in it? or a mix of both. thanks

    • Nenad Trajkovski says:

      It depends what do you mean by Cash Flow! In Baseline you can see Planned costs, and in Actual you can see real costs. Comparing this two you can see where ise the difference!

    I knew all these, but Very nice and helpful for someone to see snaps of all reports in the last two posts. 🙂
    Also liked reading your previous posts on shared Resource pool across various Subprojects in March 2012. Awesome , simple, straightforward and very graphical!
    Please don’t stop writing 🙂
