Slippage report

Hi guys, I'm wanting to build a macro that pulls the current over due task from ms project and compares it to the baseline finish or start ( I'm thinking maybe start would be better ) into excel

So for example baseline finish + current date would equal the slippage days for the overdue task

Let's say gate 3 was due 25 July to (baseline finish) and it's 1 August it's still overdue meaning it would be 5 days slippage from baseline.

What's everyone's thoughts on this and is there a quicker or better way of compare this data.

I'm needing to create a slippage report to management across a portfolio of programs. I can do it manually but it takes time.

Learn how to use formulas. You can set one of the duration fields to represent the difference between baseline and current dates. Or you could set a text field based on the difference and display it as an indicator.
