Physical % Complete Summary Rollup without resaving Baseline

[LJ]

Hello,

I have already created my project plan, have saved my baseline, and am
tracking to my baseline. My client now wants me to show the physical %
complete summary rollup%, but my understaning is that I have to:
a) set resources to all tasks
b) set all tasks to EV method of physical % complete
c) save a baseline

I am fine with a & b, but not fine with saving a new baseline. Is their any
way this summary roll-up data can be shown without saving a new baseline? I
don't want to loose what I am tracking against...

Many thanks,
Laurie

Project allows you 11 baselines. Save the new baseline to a spare basline
such as Baseline1.

Change the EV method: Tools/Options/Calcuations (tab). Click on Earned
Value and change the baseline used for EV to Baseline1.

Now you can keep two sets of books
