Baselines with Clarity and MSP - getting started

Products

• Clarity PPM On Premise
• Clarity PPM SaaS

Issue/Introduction

Is there any documentation on getting started with baseline use when integrating the MSP (Microsoft Project) Interface and Clarity? 

Environment

Release : All Supported Releases

Resolution

To Optimize performance, only export the current baseline to MSP

• Each baseline is a snapshot of the project plan, so the more baselines there are, the longer it takes to open/save the project 
• The change to only export the current baseline is made in Clarity under Administration->Project Management->Settings. Make sure when making this change, that no projects are currently checked out to MSP or OWB or baseline data may get deleted. 
• See MSP Integration performance best practices for more tips on optimizing performance with MSP: 

For more information on baselines with MSP and Clarity see the documentation links below

• Section 1: Export a Baseline 

           Highlight: The application can support unlimited baselines, but Microsoft Project supports only 11 baselines.
