Business value

This feature improves productivity by helping you avoid blocks when posting emissions. Use this feature when you want to post emissions but aren't sure which emission scope to use. It's also useful when you need to post a carbon credit that isn't related to a scope.

Feature details

To post emissions without a scope, on the Sustainability Account Category page, in the Emission Scope field, select Out of Scope. Then, assign the account category to a sustainability account or create a new account and assign the category.

Use a sustainability account with this setup on a sustainability journal when you configure the sustainability journal batch to use this emission scope or allow all scopes. After you post the journal, the entries marked as Out of Scope are recorded in sustainability ledger entries.
