Check Open Plan Baseline Resource Records

Follow this procedure to check the Open Plan base resource records.

To check the Open Plan BSU records:

  1. Open your project in a spreadsheet view (such as the Assignment Spreadsheet).
  2. Right-click anywhere in the view and click Preferences.
  3. In the Table Name drop-down list, select Baseline Usage and click OK.
  4. Create a sort to view the data correctly using on Activity ID, Resource, and Start Date.
    Note: The Res Used amount displays in seconds. If you have 8 hours per day, you can divide the seconds by 4800. However, this is not really needed to check the dates.
  5. Check if the start and finish dates match the values in the Cobra calendar.
  6. If the start date value is the day after the period end date in the Cobra calendar, and the finish date value is the period end date in Cobra, the time-phase spread from Open Plan to Cobra will be exactly the same.
