All the practise booklets from different places seem to say (about the invocation section) - this is what we do at our place, where these are the statues installed.  Your list may differ...
So, at home, where the shrine is a work in progress, do I invoke all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, etc. that there are at my local temple (and in the practise booklet), just those in my shrine, or anyone I feel like inviting that day?

for me, I normally invoke the buddhas on my shrine and buddhas that I would like to invoke. Of course, some of those are not in my altar, so I have to visualize them
