Non Baro-Vnav RNAV App - able to use Vnav?

Hi,

Just to clarify my understanding.

In our manual, if the RNAV appr is a non-baro vnav appr, we are still able to use VNAV for our approach provided there is no need for temp correction. If so, then why is it called non-baro vnav?

My understanding of a baro-vnav appr is there are both lateral and vertical guidance. Non-baro vnav appr means there is lateral guidance but only vertical advisory guidance.
