Symptoms

ACTUAL BEHAVIOR
---------------
User Primary Baseline and Project Baseline are the same project, but are showing durations differently in days.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR
-----------------------
User Primary Baseline and Project Baseline are the same project, and would show durations the same in days.

STEPS
-----------------------
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:

  1. Import Projects and Schedule them separately.
  2. Add the older Project as a Baseline of the newer Project.
  3. Assign the Baseline as Project Baseline and User Primary Baseline.
  4. In Application settings, set Earned Value Calculations to At Completion.
  5. Add BL1 Start, Finish and Duration, Project Baseline Start, Finish and Duration columns to the Activity Layout => BL1 Duration does not match BL Project Duration.
