          Prioritization Overview

          Found on the Home page, the Prioritization module is used for assigning a Priority Value to projects. Assigning levels of importance will quickly tell operators which orders need to be addressed first. The screen is divided into three main sections: Top Bar, Work To Be Prioritized, and Priority List.

          The main things to note about this layout:

          • The top section is used for loading and filtering available data to prioritize work
          • Below that, work is split into lists showing "Work to be Prioritized" (hasn't yet been prioritized) and "Priority List" (has been prioritized)
            • Items on both lists can freely be moved up or down and from table to table

          Top Bar

          At the top of the page is a section with some options for filtering the work you want displayed.

          You'll also see a few buttons to filter results:

          If you are on a Priority Version that's not the current one, you can tell by seeing the Set Current and View Current buttons

          • Set Current button will set this priority as Current
          • View Current brings you right back to the Current priority

          • Workflow Control
            • Opens popup menu with options to prioritize by Routing
            • You may also filter parts that are between two specific Tags
          Workflow Control:
          • In this menu is the Prioritize Routed Parts checkbox
            • Checking this box will give you all the parts that have a current route associated with them
          • You'll also see a filter that goes between two process node tags
            • This is useful to further filter through the different parts that you would like to prioritize

          This button appears when there is a search going on of any sort.

          • You will also see column filters to narrow down the search results
            • if you want to filter by a given column, you have the option to filter specific values in that column
            • these column filters stack onto each other
              • if you were to filter by both Work Order and Part Number, all the rows would have both Work Order and Part Number

          Displayed in this section is a list of work that has not yet been assigned a priority.
