    Hello Kristi_in_heels

    Project doesn't calculate or relate the baseline data itself. Even if you enter the Start and Finish dates for the baseline, the Baseline Duration isn't calculated, nor is the Work done by resources on that baseline between those dates. Even manually entering baseline work for a task doesn't distribute the work hours across the baseline duration.

    If you have the initial project, you can compare the fields you want from that project with those of the current project using the option: Report > Project > Compare Projects.

    I hope this helps.
