Symptoms

ACTUAL BEHAVIOR
---------------
The Project Baseline assignment gets lost after importing Primavera XML, and the Project Baseline is reset to <Current Project> in the imported project.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
-----------------------
The Project Baseline assignment remains the same as what it is set in the source project where the Primavera XML is exported from.

STEPS
-----------------------
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. Login to P6 Professional
2. Create a project (e.g. PROJ01) with at least 1 baseline (e.g. PROJ01-B1)
3. Go to tool bar menu Project -> Assign Baselines...
4. Set a baseline (e.g. PROJ01-B1) as a Project Baseline for the project (e.g. PROJ01)
5. Export the Project with Baseline to Primavera XML
5. Import this Primavera XML to P6.
6. Open the Assign Baselines for the imported project. It is found that the Project Baseline assignment is reset to <Current Project>
