Disable automatic upadate of dates and hours

[dcissai]

Hello,
Just want to ask help on how to disable automatic adjustment of
Baseline Start Date, Start Date, Baseline Finish Date and Finish Date,
also automatic adjustments of the actual work hours.

This is because every time I update my workplan, when I enter the
actual hours, it made automatic adjustment in the dates and it made me
redo everything. What I want is manual update in terms of the dates and
hours because our work schedule and budget hours in our work are so
unpredictable.

Hi,

Project does not change Baseline data.
Start and Finish are adapted to the reality (actual data) YOU put into the
plan.
You could go to Tools, Options, Calculation, and put calculation to Manual
but what's the point to have Project tell a task will start next Thursday
when you entered it actually started last week?

HTH
