Baseline Bar on Gannt
Hi All
We have a sheet set up with a GANNT
However we can't get the Baseline dates to reflect on the Gantt Chart
only the start and finish is showing

I hope you're well and safe!
Unfortunately, as far as I know, it's not possible to include the dates (it shows the thin line instead) now, but it's an excellent idea!
Here's a possible workaround or workarounds
- Add a so-called helper column that could include the task name + the dates, which would show in the Gantt.
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

HI Andree
Long time no "see" :-) new company for me :-)
tell me more about setting the helper column and how would I set that up?

I believe @Andrée Starå is referring to using a formula that just uses + to add together different cell values:
=[Task Name]@row + " Baseline Date: " + [Baseline Start]@row + " & Baseline End: " + [Baseline End]@row
Then in your Project Settings you can select this column with the formulas the one to appear in the Gantt View.
One thing I will note is that it looks like your current Baseline columns are just regular columns in the sheet. It seems that you may have separate Baseline Columns somewhere else that are being used to show the line in the Gantt chart. I can tell because if the columns are used for Baseline they have this little symbol:
