received

A request is in the received state when it has reached the system or service and been recorded as arrived, without implying that it has been processed or approved.

In plain English

This status means the system has the request in hand and has noted that it arrived. It is an acknowledgement of arrival, not a sign that work on the request is finished. Any processing or approval may still be pending.

In context

Here, "received" communicates that the system has the user's request and has recorded its arrival.

Situation
Reading processing, queue, validation, success, warning, and error messages
What it communicates
confirms that the system has the user's request

Meaning limits

By itself, this status does not show that the request has been processed or approved.

Examples

“The request is marked received, but it has not been processed yet.”

Core meaning

“When her request showed as received, she knew the system had logged its arrival.”
