    Title Type Description

    Total emissions

    Area chart

    Area chart.

    Displays the total emissions generated by asset procurement for the last five years. The data in this widget gets aggregated for each year. The unit of emission measurement for this report is KgCO2e. You can view the data for the past 3, 4, or 5 years to obtain a comparative analysis.
    Note:
    You can configure the number of years for which you want to view the data in the sn_esg_scope3.historical_years_selector property. By default, the data for 5 years is displayed.

    Emissions by calculation methodologies

    Line chart

    Trend line chart.

    Displays the emissions generated based on the various calculation methodologies such as EEIO data, LCA data, and supplier data. For more information about these calculation methodologies, refer to Scope 3 dashboard. The unit of emission measurement for this report is also KgCO2e. You can view the data for the past 3, 4, or 5 years to obtain a comparative analysis.
    Emissions by supplier and spend category (KgCO2e) Bar graph

    Bar chart.

    Displays detailed and granular data for supplier category and spend category. Select either Supplier category or Spend category to view the required report. You can choose the desired year to view the data from the drop-down list that is provided. The data for the last 5 years is available for this report.
    Suppliers with SBTi approved targets Donut

    Donut chart also called the pie chart.

    Shows the supplier data obtained using the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) standard that suppliers must adhere to. SBTi defines and promotes strategies for emissions reductions and net-zero targets in line with environmental science. This report enables you to identify which of your suppliers are adhering to the SBTi standards. The data for this report comes from the responses of the manual metrics definition that is provided by default.
    Note:
    For the metric data tasks of this metric definition, the metric data owner must enter their responses as either Yes or No.
    Emissions by GHG scope 3 categories (KgCO2e) Bar graph

    Bar chart.

    Displays the data for the GHG categories that are category 1 Purchased goods and services and category 2 Capital goods. You can choose the desired year to view the data from the drop-down list that is provided. The data for the last 5 years is available for this report.
    Suppliers with CDP data Donut

    Donut chart also called the pie chart.
