To view data on the Scope 3 dashboard, you must configure the emission category types to define the categories for which you want to report scope 3 data.

The following are the tables that you must configure to view your supplier category, spend category, and GHG category data on the Scope 3 dashboard. After configuration, the metric definitions for Scope 3 emissions use the data from
these tables.
* **[Create an emission category type](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/X5CNMimbb0qtPMse0jmCdQ)**   
  Create emission category types to define the categories for which you want to report scope 3 data that will be displayed on the Scope 3 dashboard.
* **[Configure the supplier emissions by model table](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/BufJu4kJDZIjeApia8R8EQ)**   
  Configure your supplier emission data collection to capture emissions by specific models of assets to report and calculate Scope 3 emissions accurately.
* **[Create an inflation factor](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/7mpXIC5q~IaIUo5t_1tAGA)**   
  Create inflation factors for spend-based emission factors to account for price changes over time, which can otherwise make these factors inaccurate. Spend-based emission factors estimate pollution based on monetary expenditure. Adjusting spending for inflation before applying the emission factor ensures a more realistic picture of your emissions footprint.
