Is there a way to filter records before they display on the MPS view?  

I have 6000 records that need to be processed with MPS  and it takes 20 minutes for the records to display on the screen (then another 20 minutes if I change 1 forecast on the screen, etc.). Since the purchasing department would need to look at only 700 records, is there a way I can filter the records in another view before going into MPS?
