Scorecard review at end of golf round

At the end of a golf round, the group of players in the round (usually 2 or 3 players) typically walk into an office and sit in front of a desk to certify their scores. This is usually only shown when a group containing the presumptive winner completes its round.

What specifically is being checked here? Do all 2 or 3 golfers go through each hole and confirm their score? Are the golfers expected to remember their score for each hole, or can they rely on their score card? Are the other golfers in the group required to keep the scores of their playing partner(s)? As far as I know, cameras don’t record every stroke for every player in every round, so I doubt it’s a video review.

The reason I ask is that the process seems to take a lot longer than it should.
