Through <strong>restatement<\/strong>, when a material change has been identified, they can issue redisclosure or restatement of pre-disclosed data. This new capability in Sustainability Manager provides a version control system that can help increase the auditability of disclosures, enabling your organization to maintain a detailed audit trail for report changes.\u202f\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When generating new reports, you don\u2019t want to lose track of previous versions.\u202fYour organization will need to store those copies and capture the reasons why restatement was required. With support for version history, you can access previously generated reports and tag those reports as being disclosed.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each time a new report is generated, Sustainability Manager will capture the reason provided, which is important for the record. Newly generated reports are stored automatically, and report versions can be tagged with a disclosure date. If there\u2019s a need to regenerate the report for evaluation or disclosure purposes, you can now provide a supporting narrative including the expected impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Image-2-Restatements_Image.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Image-2-Restatements_Image.png\" alt=\"Screen showing an example emissions report for an organization\" class=\"wp-image-113601\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Screen showing a sample emissions report in Microsoft Sustainability Manager<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"reduce-waste-and-resource-consumption-with-circularity-data-ingestion\">Reduce waste and resource consumption with circularity data ingestion\u202f<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Circularity is an important means of reducing waste and resource consumption by keeping materials, products, and services in use for as long as possible. To help organizations measure and report their circularity performance, Sustainability Manager now enables the ingestion of data into circularity entities as well as circularity metrics reporting and visualization.\u202f\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Circularity data ingestion (preview) is the starting point for circularity tracking<\/strong>. This includes all the existing data ingestion methods, such as form-based ingestion, Microsoft Power Query, and Microsoft Excel templates. Use this feature to record:\u202f\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\">The use of renewable, recycled, or reused raw materials for manufacturing finished products.\u202f&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\">The degree of circularity in the finished products.\u202f\u202f&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Report circularity metrics to meet sustainability disclosures standards (preview)<\/strong>. Existing reporting capabilities in Sustainability Manager have been enhanced to enable organizations to meet their circularity sustainability regulatory disclosure requirements, including those coming from Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). You can now generate at intervals that you set (monthly, quarterly, annually, or custom) and download custom reports to disclose your organization\u2019s circularity metrics. These reports can be shared with stakeholders so they can track your organization\u2019s progress toward sustainability goals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The circularity metrics provided in Sustainability Manager are aligned to standards such as GRI-301 and <a href=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/sustainability\/learn\/corporate-sustainability-reporting-directive\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CSRD<\/a>. These include:\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\">Total weight and percentage of renewable, non-renewable, recycled, and reused raw materials in the manufacture of each finished good.\u202f&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\">Degree of circularity in the finished goods.\u202f&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Visualize circularity data with the Insights dashboard<\/strong>. Now in preview in Sustainability Manager, new dashboards enable organizations to visualize their current and historical circularity data to drive insights and reporting. You can use the <strong>Circularity (input material) dashboard<\/strong> to track the weight and percentage of raw materials consumed to manufacture a finished good and the <strong>Circularity (finished good) dashboard<\/strong> to track the weight and percentage of total finished goods that follow circularity design principles. Roll up and drill down into the circularity data based on the selected reporting period, and filter by finished good or packaging material.\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"generate-single-emissions-reports-that-prioritize-specific-data-carbon-emissions-contingency-factor\">Generate single emissions reports that prioritize specific data\u2014Carbon Emissions Contingency Factor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When calculating carbon emissions, an organization might need to use a priority order with factor mappings, choosing a best match but finding an appropriate default when that\u2019s not available. This enables the generation of a single emissions record in a calculation instead of a record per node, based on the calculation model requirements.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Sus_4-1.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Sus_4-1.png\" alt=\"Image of a sample reporting period for circularity\" class=\"wp-image-113363\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>This sample screen shows circularity insights for a specific reporting period.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Carbon Emissions Contingency Factor<\/strong> is a feature within calculation models and factor mappings that includes:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>Hierarchy of factors<\/strong>. Set up a hierarchy of factors for emission calculations that begins with the most specific factors (such as factors unique to suppliers) and gradually moves toward more general factors. For example, arrange emission factors from exact suppliers or facilities to broader industry averages.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>Prioritizing specific data<\/strong>. Highlight the most specific emission factor available in your calculations. This system aims to improve accuracy in carbon footprint calculation by prioritizing detailed information\u2014favoring precise data over general estimates.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>Shift from node-based reporting<\/strong>. As an alternative to generating an emissions record for each report node, use this new methodology to generate reports on the most detailed factor found in the hierarchy.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To streamline the process and avoid generating multiple emission records for various report nodes, the exit on success checkbox enables much more flexibility and maturity in factor mapping use, toward further scaling calculations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Image-6-Carbon-emissions.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cm-edgetun.pages.dev\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Image-6-Carbon-emissions.png\" alt=\"Screen showing calculation models in Microsoft Sustainability Manager\" class=\"wp-image-113602\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Carbon Emissions Contingency Factor streamlines the emissions calculation process by prioritizing specific data and generating single reports.<\/em>&nbsp;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"microsoft-cloud-for-sustainability-deployment-expanded-to-india\">Microsoft Cloud for Sustainability deployment expanded to India&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019re excited to announce the deployment of Microsoft Cloud for Sustainability to the India datacenter region.
