Ordinances Ready Radio Button to select provide ordinances only from my own tree
It would help tremendously if your programmers could place a selection radio button on Ordinances Ready to provide ordinance only from my own tree.
Since the temple now destroys all the cards we take to the temple, it is now very laborious to print out the cards for the next ordinance needed to take to the temple of a person.
It would make it very easy to print out the next set of cards to take to the temple, if Ordinances Ready had a radio button that would select ordinances from my Reservation list, instead of the grabbing names from anywhere in the world. Of course, that is fine when I don't have names in my reservation list, but when I am working on a big list of reserved names, it would help so much if I could print names from my list. For example, say I do five baptisms and confirmations, I then need to do the Initiatory. To do that, that way it is, I have to go to the completed list, click on each name and remove the reservation and then reserve that name again, so it goes back into my Reservation list so I can select it to print out for the next ordinance.
It would make it much easier, if the Ordinance Ready could just give me the next ordinances I need for the persons in my reservation list.
Thanks!

This help center article: https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/where-does-ordinances-ready-get-names discusses where Ordinances Ready gets names from. As you can see it already does what you are requesting. It always takes names from your personal reservation list first, then names you shared with a family group, then names some else shared with a family group you belong to, then names you shared with the temple.
If none of those lists have a name for the ordinance you are requesting, then it starts with you and goes up ten generations and down five generations looking for names someone else has shared with the temple that you are related to.
If it still doesn't have enough names for you, it goes from you back ten generations then forward five generations looking for your relatives with green temple icons.
If it still can't find enough, only then does it give you someone you are not related to from off the general temple list.
So as long as you have a good number of relatives in Family Tree so that you do connect properly with the entire tree, you will almost always get the name of someone you are related to.
On a side note, if you get a name through Ordinances Ready, it is not really expected that you will complete any of the ordinances for that person. But it is certainly considerate of you to want to do so. One way to more easily complete the other ordinances is to go to their person pages as soon as you first get then names. Most of the time these with have green temple with clock icons on them so you can reserve the other ordinances right then and have them on your personal reservation list.

As this is already in place, I'm going to close the discussion.
