Hi Chandu,

I'm afraid that there's nothing in Salesforce called just "Custom Process" (you can be referring to a custom approval process, for example).

"An approval process is an automated process your organization can use to approve records in Salesforce. An approval process specifies the steps necessary for a record to be approved and who must approve it at each step. A step can apply to all records included in the process, or just records that meet certain administrator-defined criteria. An approval process also specifies the actions to take when a record is approved, rejected, recalled, or first submitted for approval."

You can get more info about approval processes in Salesforce in this link [1]

Regards.
