How does “Approving and submitting” work on the Statutory surveys (ONS) page?

Approve & submit is the one irreversible click, so it names the survey, the period and the company first, and for a batch names every survey and any warnings. The robot then puts the approved answers on the ONS site, compares ONS's own check-your-answers summary against them question by question, and submits only when they match — a mismatch stops the survey and shows Approved against ONS shows. The row says Submitting until ONS confirms, and the confirmation is kept with who approved and when. A survey cancelled here leaves any draft on the ONS site untouched.
