You can use the variance analysis to do the following:

• Edit activities and subprojects from the actual plan.

• Change the timescale.

• Select baseline – select a project state saved previously as a baseline for comparison.

• Show progress line over start date – visualize the schedule deviations between a project state and selected baseline related to start dates.

• Show progress line over finish date – visualize the schedule deviations between a project state and selected baseline related to finish dates.

• Show only difference – show only activities/projects, where there is the time shift between target and actual.
