# Latest update April '26 - New Registered Flow

This April release introduces an important structural improvements to the platform: the Registered flow.  The Registered flow fundamentally changes how systems move from editable design into verification-ready, immutable states—ensuring data integrity, traceability, and compliance. It is designed to accelerate and improve the verification process.

## From Systems to System Models

As part of this update:

-   **Systems pages are now renamed to** ***Models***
-   This reflects their role as structured, reusable representations of carbon data.

## **Registered Flow Benefits**

Before this release, Models had a risk of change while being used for registration, reporting or verification*.*

Now:

> A verifier cannot issue an opinion on a system whose inputs are still mutable.

The Registered flow solves this by:

-   **Locking data to initiate the verification and/or registration process**
-   Creating a **clean, auditable snapshot**
-   Enabling reliable **Carbon Receipt (CAP)** issuance and **Verification at a point time statement**

* * *

## Key Features Introduced

### 1\. **Registered Tab created**

-   A dedicated space where all registered models are stored
-   Acts as a central hub for:
    -   Verification
    -   Carbon Receipts (CAPs)
    -   Status tracking

### 2\. New Action: Register

Found in the three-dot menu on Models.

**Conditions:**

-   Model must be in **Ready** status
-   **All Properties fields must be completed** (even if not required for Ready)

* * *

## To Register a Model

When a user clicks **Register**:

### Model Behavior

-   The Model is **copied with new IDs**
-   Original model remains unchanged
-   The Registered version becomes:
    -   **Read-only (locked)**
    -   Used for:
        -   Carbon Receipts
        -   Verification

### Important Rules

-   **Comments are NOT copied**
-   **There is no unlock option**
    -   Exception: if status changes to *Revisions Requested*

## Handling Linked Systems

### Without Subsystems

-   Explains model will be copied and locked
-   Lists next steps (CAP + Verification)

### With Subsystems

Pop-up window displays:

-   List of all linked systems
-   All are:
    -   **Copied**
    -   **Locked together**
    -   Assigned new IDs

## Status Flow & Available Actions

Each registered model follows a defined lifecycle:

| Status | Available Actions |
| --- | --- |
| **Self Attested** (default) | Open, Issue Carbon Receipt, Request Verification, Add Verification Info, Archive |
| **Pending Verification** | Open, Issue Carbon Receipt |
| **Under Verification** | Open, Issue Carbon Receipt |
| **Revisions Requested** | Open, Issue Carbon Receipt |
| **Verified** | Open, Issue Carbon Receipt, Request Verification |
| **Verified on CarbonSig** | Open, Issue Carbon Receipt |

* * *

## Verification Flow Updates

### Request for 3rd Party Verification

-   Opens **right sidebar**
-   Initiates verification process

### Add Verification Information

-   Opens **right sidebar**
-   Uses fields previously in Systems/Output node:
    -    *Verification tab (now deprecated)*

### Behavior Change

-   Once verification info is added:  
    → Status automatically becomes **Verified**

* * *

## Cleanup & Deprecations

-   **Verification tab removed from Outputs**
-   All verification now centralized in Registered flow

* * *

## What This Means for You

This update enables:

-   ✅ **Reliable verification workflows**
-   ✅ **Immutable audit-ready data**
-   ✅ **Clear separation between modeling and reporting**
-   ✅ **Scalable foundation for verifier roles & engagement**

* * *

## In Short

**Before:**  
Editable systems → unclear verification readiness

**Now:**  
Editable *Models* → **Registered (locked)** → Verification → Certified outputs

* * *
