Run a Baseline Comparison report

The Baseline Comparison report displays a side-by-side comparison of items and relationships in two baselines.

This report compares two specific states of selected items at a certain point in time. For example, to see what has changed between two baselines, you can compare the baseline that's created when you open a review with the baseline of the completed review.

Note

When comparing baselines, the hierarchical order must be the same between the two baselines. If items are reordered in the Explorer Tree from one baseline to the next, the report shows incorrect or no results.

To run this report:

  1. From the project with the baselines you want to compare, select Reports > Run report in the upper-right corner of the header to open the Run Reports window.
