Machining operations information would list the Machining operation (MOp) status as Dirty if any of the MOp parameters were modified/changed and the MOp has not been regenerated.
The corresponding MOp folder in your machining browser would also Flag the operation. When you expand the operation folder, you will see which of the MOp properties have changed. This could be Control geometry, Tool, Feeds/Speeds,Clearance Definition, Cut Parameters, Toolpath.
For example - If you changed the Feeds/Speeds parameter for the MOp and saved the changes, this would flag the operation & feeds/speeds entry in the MOp as dirty. Regenerating the operation will change the status to Clean.
