  3. Click New Baseline.

    4. The New Baseline page appears.

  4. Enter Version Label, Change Description, and Mail Comments.

    5. For example:

    • Version Label - Beta. For more information on version display, refer to the Configuring Version Display topic.
    • Change Description - Business rule for all the source column was changed to ASCII.
    • Mail Comments - The target update strategy needs to be updated. For more information on notifying project users, refer to the Configuring Notifications topic.
  5. Click .

    6. The project is base-lined and all the maps in the project now have the same version. Project users receive email notifications about the base-lining and mail comments, if you enable notifications for it. For more information on configuring notifications, refer to the Configuring Notifications topic.
