Sustainability data definition replaces Emissions source field
Sustainability Manager previously used the Emissions source field to identify the type of data used for ingestions and calculations. With the expansion to include water and waste, Sustainability Manager now uses Sustainability data definition as the new categorizing field and table within the product. This field allows for the ingestion and calculation of other data types beyond emissions.
The Is market based attribute/column is deprecated
The Is market based column no longer appears on the All emissions page. The Accounting method and Alternate result basis columns replace it. The Market based checkbox in the calculation model experience is replaced with the Accounting method dropdown.
