How can we get names from temple ordinance ready for sealing to spouse or generate new names?

I am getting frustrated that I can't go to temple ordinance ready for sealing to spouse and get family ordinances done for my own family. The five names that are generated for me need other ordinances done first, but I can't get appointments for those ordinances as quickly as I can for sealings. Is there a way to bypass the five generated names to a new list to see if there are sealings to spouses that need to be done from my own family, or is there a way to make sure that the names that are generated under this category are actually ready for sealing to spouse?

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    [ And, I happen to be a Member of the Church ... ]

    As you are referring to obtain the "temple" Work for "OrdinancesReady" ...

    Unfortunately ...

    Short Answer: You CANNOT.

    You are not alone ...

    But ...

    That Said ...

    What you request is SOMETHING that "OrdinancesReady" was SPECIFICALLY designed NOT to be able to do.

    Please let me explain ...

    Please be aware that the "OrdinancesReady" feature/function/facility is ONLY, really, for a quick; and, easy, process of, FINDING; and, PRINTING, the "Temple" Cards, when one is going to visit the "Temple", that day or the next, when one DOES NOT have ANY "Temple" Cards, 'on-hand', available.

    The "OrdinancesReady" feature/function/facility is certainly NO substitute, for doing one's due diligence, well IN ADVANCE of visiting the "Temple" of, FINDING; and, PRINTING, the "Temple" Cards, for one's Ancestors, to have 'on-hand', available; regardless, of the "Gender".

    Although, I totally understand your request.

    I would humbly suggest that, your request, may not be considered as appropriate, in view of the intended Design.

    Here are some "Knowledge Articles" in 'FamilySearch':

    How do I find family names for the temple with Ordinances Ready?

    https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/how-do-i-find-family-names-for-the-temple-with-ordinances-ready 

    Where it states, among other things;

    Quote

    ------------------

    Ordinances Ready is designed to provide family name cards for the person signed in to the website or the Family Tree app. For example, if you are female, it only searches for ancestors who are likewise female so that you can perform their ordinances.

    ------------------

    And ...

    Where does Ordinances Ready get names?

    Where it states, among other things;

    Quote

    ------------------

    Ordinances Ready finds names for you that are your **** (that is, male names for male users and female names for female users).

    ------------------

    And ...

    Why does Ordinances Ready keep giving me the same family names?

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/why-does-ordinances-ready-keep-giving-me-the-same-family-names

    Where it states, among other things;

    Quote

    ------------------

    [ Paraphrasing here ... ]

    • "Complete" the "Temple" Work (if you CAN ...)
    • "Unreserve" the "Temple" Work (if you CAN ...)

    There are are not any other options ...

    ------------------

    Plus...

    Why does Ordinances Ready keep giving me ordinances that I just did?

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/why-does-ordinances-ready-keep-giving-me-ordinances-that-i-just-did

    And ...

    Ordinances Ready gave me a reprinted family name card

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/ordinances-ready-gave-me-a-reprinted-family-name-card

    Now ...

    That Said ...

    Who is to say things will not change in the future ...

    I know that this does not help; but, I hope this gives you some, insight; and, perspective.

    Brett
