Hi Etienne, did you checked the ISM specs? I think the flow phases you mention are mappable to the current states of the ISM.
Also consider this conversation is about INSTRUCTION handling, not ACTION handling, ACTIONs are used to modify the state of the INSTRUCTION/ACTIVITY. -- Kind regards, Eng.

Date: Fri, 22 Jul 2016 19:35:12 +0200 CC: openehr-clini...@lists.openehr.org; s...@lists.openehr.org Thank you very much for the schema. However I believe that the handling of an Action should start earlier before the "INITIAL" state. - "SUGGESTED" Preliminary informal suggestion, according to some generic guidelines, regardless of the details of the current context of the patient - "POROPSED" It could be useful to record temporarily proposals by student, junior assistant or nurse, or simply when a staff member is considering some action while waiting on more information from the lab. Nothing yet done, but information could be useful to be recorded temporarily as an element of discussion. - "VALIDATED" The decision for he action is confirmed by an authorised member of the staff. Although not yet scheduled. The author of an order is also responsible to specify a time range, from "very urgent" to "to be done within on month". If the time would have been outdated the order should be reevaluated. - etc as on the schema ..... - "STARTED" For example a treatment for 10 days is actually started. Or a bacteriology test which necessitate at least 24 hours. "COMPLETED" Completely executed. In priciple a conclusion is expected.
