# Process Control Overview

The **Process Control Overview** is the hub for every controlled workbook. It has three tabs.

#### Overview Tab <a href="#process-overviewtab" id="process-overviewtab"></a>

**What you see:**

* Process name and description (collapsible).
* Role assignments and user permissions.
* Available **task buttons** (e.g. Submit, Approve, Reject) — only shown when all conditions for that task pass.
* **Submission Status Indicator** — tracks the current submission in real time.

**Actions in the menu:**

| Action               | What it does                                                                                                                                 |
| -------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Refresh**          | Re-reads workbook hashes and re-evaluates which task buttons are available. Use this after editing cell values that are part of a condition. |
| **Update process**   | Opens the wizard pre-filled with existing data to publish a new process version.                                                             |
| **Lock File**        | Re-applies lock and protection (useful after temporarily unlocking to edit).                                                                 |
| **Reset Submission** | Clears the current chain and returns to the first task step.                                                                                 |
