• Operations scheduled - Reservations made based on a production order with the status Operations scheduled or on Operation scheduled production orders that are subsequently started.

• Job scheduled - Reservations made based on production orders with the status Job scheduled or a job scheduled production order that are subsequently started.

• Marked for deletion - Use when scheduling has been stopped, in which case you can return to the starting point.
