Creating baseline set definitions

Create a baseline set definition that contains all the modules that you want to include in a baseline set.

Before you begin

To create a baseline set definition you must have modify and create access to the project or folder.

About this task

Baseline set definitions are created and managed in the project or folder properties. All the baseline set definitions that are managed from a project or folder are listed on the Baseline Set Definitions tab on the Properties window.

You can include modules from anywhere in the database in your baseline set definition. Modules can be included in more than one baseline set definition. Baselines of modules can be created in any of the baseline sets that the module belongs to, or independent of a baseline set.

Procedure

  1. Right-click the project or folder that you want to use to manage the baseline set definition, and then select Properties.
  2. Select the Baseline Set Definitions tab, and then click New.
  3. Type a name and optionally a description for the baseline set definition, and then click OK.
  4. In the Baseline Set Definition window, click Edit.
  5. On the Definition tab, add the modules that you want to include in the baseline set definition. You must add all the modules that you want to include in a baseline set to the baseline set definition before you create the baseline set.
  6. The baseline set definition inherits its access controls from its parent. To change the access controls, select the Access tab, and edit the access.
  7. When you have finished adding modules and setting access rights, click OK.

What to do next

You can now create a baseline set, and include any of the modules that you have added to the baseline set definition.
