Select to display only top level work orders. Top level work orders are work orders that have not been created to meet the component demands of a parent work order.

Select to include the current posted value of the work order in the display. The posted value is equal to the total cost accumulated on the work order, including both labor and materials. The posted value will be the same as the WIP value until the point when finished goods are received. Ultimately, once production (or operations) posting is completed, the posted value will be equal to the received value. If these two values are different, then a variance will result.

Display lists work order history by item, using the specified parameters. The start dates and end dates are color-coded for ease of use. Both dates will display in red type if the work order is not yet in-process and is also past due. Once a work order's status is changed to in-process (I), the start date will automatically revert to black type.
