In the Accounting tab of the left navigation menu, new reports for calculating a PCF's emissions can be created, and existing reports can be viewed and edited.
Report overview
The title of the respective report is shown in the first column of the overview. To the right of this is the report type. In addition to Product Carbon Footprints (PCF), reports on Corporate Carbon Footprints (CCF) or Event Carbon Footprints (ECF) can also appear there.
The Status column in the PCF is currently always In Progress. In the future, it will indicate whether the report is still being processed (In progress) or has already been finalised (Published). The From and To columns indicate the period in which the input data for the product was recorded and balanced. The CO2e (Total) column lists the total emissions caused in the specified period for all recorded activities for the product and all its sub-products or components. The last two columns show who last changed the report and when the change was made.
Additionally, it is possible to filter by report type above the table.
Open report and enter data
Clicking on a report allows you to go into the report and enter consumption data. The following tabs are available there, which are required for data entry: Base data, Data, Analysis and Options (e.g. PDF export, coming soon).
Create a new report
To create a new report, first click on the plus button. Select the Product Carbon Footprint option in the Report type field. The company will be filled in automatically. Then select a previously recorded product from the product list and define the desired reference period within which the input data for the product is to be recorded and used for balancing. By clicking on the create button, the report is created and appears directly in the report overview.
