I just don't see an easy way of handling this. If we had a full bidirectional interface with every lab, then I could I see the system automatically taking labs off the pending list when they arrive, or generating alerts when a lab is late. Everything else requires a full extra step adding the lab to an order log, and another step when someone matches an incoming lab with an entry in the log.
AC could generate an order log if you use it consistently for all your orders. It could then present outstanding orders for the particular patient when you import items to the chart. That might work without adding too much work.
