Business value

Business users are looking for better methods to ingest large and disparate data sets that will enable them to accurately define their carbon footprint and report sustainability performance. We're revamping the data ingestion experience to simplify data import and enable heterogeneous data ingestion. We'll enable partners to integrate their solutions seamlessly while standardizing the ingestion experience for additional commodity types, such as water and waste.

Feature details

You'll be able to import deconstructed data from single or multiple sources for multiple entities faster through a guided experience with reduced time needed for data processing, mapping, and transformation. The new ingestion experience will provide flexibility and options to select the ingestion methods based on user maturity, data source, integrated solution, and custom template. You'll also be able to decouple the data mapping experience and add custom dimensions to your current sustainability entities. This feature will reduce the time to onboard into Microsoft Sustainability Manager, helping you to embark on your sustainability journey more quickly.
