What two steps are required to create a baseline in Primavera P6?

To create a baseline in Primavera P6, one must first open the project exclusively (A) to prevent access conflicts. Then, the project manager selects Project > Maintain Baselines (B) to set the baseline. Finally, assigning the baseline to the project (D) makes it the reference for tracking progress.

A. Opening the project exclusively is not a mandatory step for creating a baseline; it primarily helps avoid conflicts.

C. Defining baseline start and finish dates is not necessary; the selecting and assigning steps cover this.
