Can you please program Ordinances Ready to give me only names that have had previous ords done.
I much prefer to do my ancestors' work in order as before. Could you possibly at least program Ordinances Ready so that when I say NO to printing one Sealing ordinance, another one will pop up, giving me the option to do those whose previous ordinances, or that of their parents, has been done? Thank you very much for all your great work! Carol

I am sorry ...
Short Answer: "OrdinancesReady" may NOT be the answer ...
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, through one's "Reservations" List; and/or, normal research.
Unfortunately ...
In this day and age, it appears that many Users/Patrons, consider that "OrdinancesReady" is the way to go; as, "OrdinancesReady" is such, a quick; and, easy, process.
We never had, "OrdinancesReady" up until a few Years ago.
"OrdinancesReady", is simply helpful/useful for those, that are 'caught in a bind'; when, they have a "Temple" visit scheduled (or, are notified of one, scheduled by, a Ward/Branch/Stake/District); but, unfortunately, do not have any "Temple" Cards, for their Ancestors, 'on-hand', available.
Now ...
That Said ...
I would humbly suggest that "OrdinancesReady" is "Designed'; so that, we 'plough'/'plow' through OUR List of "Reservations", in the FIRST instance; and, in order (ie. Oldest "Reservations" FIRST).
Hence, WHY, there is NO "Option" to "Dismiss"; and, move-on to the next/another available individual/person.
But ...
Then again ...
We can but live in hope ...
Furthermore ...
Here is a specific 'Knowledge Article", in 'FamilySearch':
How do I find family names for the temple with Ordinances Ready?
Where, it states, among other things:

Notes:
...
- Ordinances Ready does not determine if pre-requisite ordinances have been completed when sealing-to-spouse ordinances are requested. Please ensure that baptism, initiatory and endowment have been completed for each individual before proceeding with a sealing ordinance.

Why does Ordinances Ready keep giving me the same family names?
Why does Ordinances Ready keep giving me ordinances that I just did?
And ...
Ordinances Ready gave me a reprinted family name card

Who is to say things will not change in the future ...
Hopefully, a "Filter" Option, just maybe added, to "OrdinancesReady" ...
I know, that this certainly does not help/assist; but, I hope, that this may provide you with, some additional, insight; and, perspective.
