المعنى
To confirm that everything is in order or satisfactory.
خلفية ثقافية
The phrase reflects the 'Ordnung muss sein' mentality. Even in casual conversation, Germans value the confirmation that rules and systems are being followed. In Austria, you might hear 'Passt schon' as a more relaxed alternative, implying 'It's fine enough' rather than 'It's in perfect order'. Swiss German speakers use 'Alles im grüene Berych' (Everything in the green zone) to mean the same thing, using a technical/gauge metaphor.
