"Verfahrens" is the genitive singular form of "Verfahren," which means "procedure" or "process."
Here, 'Verfahrensbuch' uses 'verfahrens' as a genitive singular noun modifier meaning 'of procedure'. It indicates possession or specification.
Das Verfahrensbuch ist auf dem Schreibtisch.
The procedural manual is on the desk.
In this sentence, 'des Verfahrens' is the genitive singular form of 'das Verfahren', showing possession or association with 'Protokolle' (records).
Die Protokolle des Verfahrens wurden überprüft.
The records of the procedure were reviewed.
Again, 'des Verfahrens' indicates the genitive case, serving to specify the ownership or context of 'Schritte' (steps).
