Creating, Editing, and Deleting Project Baselines
Users with All Project Categories > Edit > Baselines can create or edit baselines (note that the View rollups permission is automatically enabled when you select either All Project Categories > View > Baselines or All Project Categories > Edit > Baselines permissions). To delete baselines, you must have Project > Delete > Baselines permission. Note the examples above are global permissions (apply to all project baselines). You can set the same permissions per project category; for example, MyProjectCategory > Edit > Baselines.
