enqueued
Added to line
Enqueued means placed in a queue—added to a waiting line for processing.
The term appears most often in computing, where tasks, messages, or data are enqueued to be handled in order: The job was enqueued and will run when resources are available.
Outside technical contexts, enqueued simply means put in line to wait one's turn.
