How can we restrict the Specific state in the Work item during exchange Process automation

We are trying to automate the exchange Process through Agosense with IBM RTC. OEM and supplier both are using IBM Rtc . We tried to automate the defect creation Process. If the defect is created in OEM side that defect should automatically create in Supplier side. They are using ago sense for exchange process. we need to restrict that if the defect is in "ACCEPTED" state then only it should get create in supplier side. But now the defect is created in supplier side in the state "CREATED". 

Kindly Assist us how can we restrict the defects in "ACCEPTED" state during exchange process.

Thanks.
