- **Official URL**: http://hl7.org/fhir/resource-status
- **Status**: active
- **Name**: FHIRCanonicalStatusCodes

## Concepts

| Code | Display | Definition |
| --- | --- | --- |
| error | error | The resource was created in error, and should not be treated as valid (note: in many cases, for various data integrity related reasons, the information cannot be removed from the record) |
| proposed | proposed | The resource describes an action or plan that is proposed, and not yet approved by the participants |
| planned | planned | The resource describes a course of action that is planned and agreed/approved, but at the time of recording was still future |
| draft | draft | The information in the resource is still being prepared and edited |
| requested | requested | A fulfiller has been asked to perform this action, but it has not yet occurred |
| received | received | The fulfiller has received the request, but not yet agreed to carry out the action |
| declined | declined | The fulfiller chose not to perform the action |
| accepted | accepted | The fulfiller has decided to perform the action, and plans are in train to do this in the future |
| arrived | arrived | The pre-conditions for the action are all fulfilled, and it is imminent |
| active | active | The resource describes information that is currently valid or a process that is presently occuring |
| suspended | suspended | The process described/requested in this resource has been halted for some reason |
| replaced | replaced | The information in this resource has been replaced by information in another resource |
| ended | ended | The process described/requested has reached a state where no further action is planned |
| inactive | inactive | The resource describes information that is no longer valid or a process that is stopped occurring |
| unknown | unknown | Authoring system does not know the status |
| unconfirmed | unconfirmed | The information in this resource is not yet approved |
| confirmed | confirmed | The information in this resource is approved |
| resolved | resolved | The issue identified by this resource is no longer of concern |
| refuted | refuted | This information has been ruled out by testing and evaluation |
| differential | differential | Potentially true? |
| partial | partial | This information is still being assembled |
| busy-unavailable | busy-unavailable | not available at this time/location |
| free | free | Free for scheduling |
| on-target | on-target | Ready to act |
| ahead-of-target | ahead-of-target | Ahead of the planned timelines |
| behind-target | behind-target | Behind the planned timelines |
| not-ready | not-ready | Not ready to act |
| transduc-discon | transduc-discon | The device transducer is disconnected |
| hw-discon | hw-discon | The hardware is disconnected |
