  • Work instructions that do not have a test function

  • Work instructions that have the status New, In Process; To be Completed, Cancelled (terminated), Discarded, Completed, Archived (EBR)

The worklist is displayed in the form of a tabular overview. In the worklist, you can do the following (among other things):

  • Sort work instructions according to various criteria

  • Display or process individual work instructions

  • Delete work instructions
