Anders, ifnitiate an out-of-band message, such as a purchase order is 
received via phone. And, we provide a flag to allow the interaction back 
into state alignment (so we can get a response). Do this flag and this 
action require another acceptance? Thanks.

   From the short example it seems as if the first legally relevant 
message was exchanged over another voice communication channel than an 
electronic channel . This could be specified in CPA by using specified 
alternative channel semantics. A flag may not even be required if a 
Receipt and/or Acceptance signals are dispatched by the addressee 
according to the applicable Transaction (pattern) semantics.
 From the short example it seems as if the business arrangement has not 
been changed,  so an extra acceptance seems redundant.
