to submit the batch to the batch processor, which will recalculate each worksheet. Recalculation of batches cannot be undone. After processing, each worksheet will display a status:
a. Un-initiated: The batch has not been processed.
b. Pending: The batch is being processed, but the individual worksheet has not yet been processed.
c. Completed: The individual worksheet’s recalculations have been completed with no warnings or errors.

If warnings or errors are created for the batch, they should be reviewed at the worksheet level.
