  4. Select which operations to be displayed as default by selecting an option in the Selection list. Available options are:
    All - All the operations including Planned and Closed operations will be displayed.
    Executable - The first operation of released shop orders and the operations with any quantity reported in the previous operation will be displayed.

    Shortest Process Time - Operations are sorted in the ascending order according to the Remaining Manufacturing Hours.
    Shop Order Priority - Operations are sorted in the ascending order according to the shop order priority. Adjustment Factor is used to sort the operations in descending order. Operations having the same adjustment factor are sorted according to the Planned Start Date. If shop order priority is not defined, Adjustment Factor is considered to be 100.
    Operation Priority - Operations are sorted in the ascending order according to the Operation Priority. Operations with no priority value will be placed after the operations with priority value. Operations having the same priority value are sorted according to the Planned Start Date.
    Grouping - Operations are sorted in the ascending order according to the Group by Note.
    Operation Block - Operations are sorted ascending according to the planned start date/time of the operation block which to the operation is connected. Operations not connected to an operation block will be placed after operations with an operation block connection.
