Prerequisites

You made the required entries on the initial screen.

Procedure

On the overview screen, each postprocessing order is displayed in a separate row. There is a separate column for all standard selection criteria, in which the relevant values are displayed, regardless of your selection on the initial screen.

In the standard system on the overview screen, the postprocessing orders are sorted by the main object on the first level, and by business process on the second level. On the third level, you can sort them by any other selection criteria according to your requirements. Proceed as follows:
- Select the relevant column by clicking on the column header.
- Choose (Sort Ascending) or (Sort Descending).
Um sich vor der Bearbeitung oder Detailanzeige eines Nachbearbeitungsauftrags über das zugehörige Hauptobjekt, das Basisobjekt oder die Umfeldobjekte zu informieren, klicken Sie in der Zeile des Nachbearbeitungsauftrags, den Sie bearbeiten oder anzeigen möchten, auf die Hyperlinks in den jeweiligen Spalten (z.B. in der Spalte Hauptobjekt). The detail display for the relevant object appears.
To search for the postprocessing orders based on specific main messages, choose (Search for Messages) in the application toolbar. The relevant postprocessing orders are highlighted in yellow. The system includes only those postprocessing orders that meet your selection criteria and that are listed already on the overview screen.

  Note
  
  If the postprocessing order is in your worklist, it will continue to be selected if you choose Orders to be Processed by Me (1) or Orders in My Worklist (2) on the initial screen or in the filter function.
  
  If the postprocessing order is not in your worklist but you are the current processor, it would only have been displayed previously if you had chosen Orders in My Worklist (2). If you assign a new processor, the worklist will only be included if you choose All Postprocessing Orders (3) as the order assignment.
  
  End of the note.
- Assigning Postprocessing Orders to Another Worklist
  Choose Change Worklist in the context menu of the postprocessing order.
  
  Note
  
  If the postprocessing order is not found in any of your assigned worklists after the change and you are not the current processor, the postprocessing order is only selected if you choose All Postprocessing Orders (3) on the initial screen or in the filter function.
