Placing Dishes in the Dishwasher on Shabbat

Question

Is it permitted to place dishes in the dishwasher on Shabbat so that they are ready and can be run immediately after Shabbat, or is it considered preparing from Shabbat for a weekday?

Answer

If immediately after removing the dishes from the table they are placed there, it is permitted. However, if the dishes are already in a place where they are usually left, such as on the countertop, it is forbidden to take them from there and put them in the dishwasher.
