    • Processor group responsible for processing the work instructions

    • Control instruction destination to which the work instructions were sent

    • Date and time the work instructions were created

  • Mode of work instructions

    • Active work instructions (no test)

    • Test work instructions

    • Material to be produced

    • Batch to be produced

  • The associated inspection lot if a quality inspection is defined for the process order

  • In some cases, a display variant that determines how the list is prepared for display in the worklist

Selection Variant

The selection variant SAP&PP_SEARCH is supplied for searches for work instructions. It has the following preset selection criteria:

  • Cross-plant search (the Plant field is thus not mandatory)

  • 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)

Functions in the Worklist

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
