Request to improve "Filter Settings" when searching your Shared Reservation Temple name list
I have 3-400 temple names on my personal list and about 2000 on my Shared w Temple list.
when I want to find say 20 new female names for Initiatory work from my Shared list to Unshare so my wife can take new family names for initiatory work, I have to search through 51 pages. There are a few quirks to the Search and Filter features that I hope they can improve upon. When I start to search on page 1 of 51, I set the filters to Sex w "Female ascending".
As I see a potential name to select, I click on the person's details to be sure there are no duplicates to FIRST resolve and to be sure that no one has claimed my "shared person" already. The problems:
- I often cannot see, by hovering w my mouse over that persons ordinance icons, whether someone else has already claimed that name (thus making it so i cannot select them).
- If someone has claimed that name, I have to hit the Back button a few times to get back to my search, but unfortunately, the Search feature "resets" everything, so I have to now: reselect the Sex and Ascending filter and if i was on page 8 of 51 pages, i have to reselect page 8. Can the IT/programmers not write this filter search program so it goes back to EXACTLY where I as at, so I dont have to redo all this. It takes a lot of time to find 10-20 initiatory names when i have to do this several times.

I have about 6000 shared temple reservations. I enjoy my Temple service and have found that I can do many sealing each time I attend the Temple. I have tied to use the filters to identify those that have had an endowment completed and are ready for a sealing to parent. However the filter is not totally effective. I find that individuals needing an endowment are still included the in the results and even some individuals for which all ordinances are been completed are included. It seemed to work more effective a while back.

In your case, i think if you use the "ordinance ready" feature, that if you pick Sealing to Parent, it will NOT give you someone needing to be sealed to parent, if they have NOT yet had endowment done.

The filters can be a little tricky to set but when you find the right combination they work great for what Wayne wants to accomplish. To get just those ready for SP set them like this:
This may actually be an improvement from when he first made this comment a year and a half ago. A lot has changed since then. Generally questions this old don't really apply to the situation anymore.
