00:00:00.900 --> 00:00:06.515
A schedule comparison answers a practical question: what changed between two versions?

00:00:06.775 --> 00:00:11.952
We'll compare the July and August updates for Harbor Renewal, then follow the completion

00:00:11.952 --> 00:00:13.990
movement to the affected activities.

00:00:15.188 --> 00:00:18.115
Open Schedule Compare and select the project.

00:00:18.375 --> 00:00:21.553
Check the name and project number before continuing.

00:00:21.812 --> 00:00:25.803
For this walkthrough, both schedule versions belong to Harbor Renewal.

00:00:26.075 --> 00:00:29.102
That keeps the comparison focused on the same work.

00:00:30.308 --> 00:00:34.010
Choose July as the earlier version and August as the later version.

00:00:34.270 --> 00:00:36.498
Read the data dates beside the names.

00:00:36.782 --> 00:00:38.622
Here, both are monthly updates.

00:00:38.895 --> 00:00:43.810
Comparing them shows movement since July, rather than variance against an approved

00:00:43.810 --> 00:00:44.460
baseline.

00:00:45.668 --> 00:00:46.882
Select Compare.

00:00:47.168 --> 00:00:52.270
The completion date moves from November twentieth to November twenty seventh, a change

00:00:52.270 --> 00:00:53.782
of seven calendar days.

00:00:54.042 --> 00:00:55.620
Four activities changed.

00:00:55.892 --> 00:00:59.720
Start with this summary, then look for the detail that explains it.

00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:06.435
In Changed activities, marine foundation works finishes seven days later and is now

00:01:06.435 --> 00:01:07.360
marked critical.

00:01:07.620 --> 00:01:09.560
Its float change is minus four.

00:01:09.820 --> 00:01:14.772
Delta means change: that column does not tell you the activity's absolute amount of

00:01:14.772 --> 00:01:15.760
remaining float.

00:01:16.960 --> 00:01:21.950
Your short explanation should name the two versions, the completion movement, and one

00:01:21.950 --> 00:01:23.612
activity to investigate.

00:01:23.872 --> 00:01:28.312
Then check the schedule logic and supporting review before deciding the response.

00:01:28.572 --> 00:01:31.200
The comparison is evidence for the discussion.
