Lifecycle
Documentation status: reference — see Maturity and evidence.
Lifecycle connects identity, states, transitions, actions, and events.
Instance
-> current state
-> action
-> validation/rules
-> transition
-> new state
-> event
This chain is not mandatory for every concept, but it provides an explicit framework when a business object must be governed and audited.
Keep in the model
- business states;
- allowed transitions;
- actions that trigger changes;
- observable events;
- validity rules.
Transport, storage, and rendering mechanisms remain technical projections.
