# Detailed Process Operations

#### What happens under the hood

| Step                       | What runs                                                                                                              |
| -------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Re-validate conditions** | User, role, task-sequence, cell value, and hash conditions are checked again at the moment of submission.              |
| **Write Chain ID**         | `CONTROL_CHAIN_ID` is written to workbook metadata to anchor the submission if it is first task executed.              |
| **Run task actions**       | Actions execute in order: lock → save → protect → update\_status → email → etc.                                        |
| **Record chain**           | The chain signature is posted to the backend with hashes and file path.                                                |
| **Deferred actions**       | Any `suggest_group` actions run after the chain is saved (writes metadata for suggested processes and exports a copy). |

| State           | Meaning                                                                              |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **In Progress** | Actions are running — keep the taskpane open.                                        |
| **Success**     | Chain recorded. A download link appears if the process is configured to provide one. |
| **Failed**      | A condition or action failed. The error message tells you exactly what to fix.       |

**Auto-reset on completion:** If the process is configured to clear the chain after the final step (e.g. after Checker approval), the workbook automatically resets to the first task — ready for a new submission cycle.
