On Thursday, June 4th, we will be performing critical infrastructure maintenance on our Disaster Recovery processes. This will necessitate brief outages for Community GitLab from time to time. The outages will not lose any work, however, some jobs may need to be restarted. If you are not able to access one of our services or websites, please wait a few minutes and try again. Additional status updates will be available on our status page at https://status.opengroup.org/.
I am having difficulty in modeling the state of an object as it moves through process steps. Any step may change its state, e.g. Order Received > Open > Filled > Invoiced.
I don't think having a unique object for each state makes sense. But, equally, seeing > Order > Order > Order doesn't satisfy the need to communicate a critical piece of information.
Suggestions?
