Managing Allocation Scheme

In SAP Sustainability Footprint management, when you cannot track emissions to a specific product, facility, resource, or process infrastructure, you can create allocations.

Allocations are required when energy flows or sources do not directly interact with the production process, or when the ERP system lacks the required information.

In this lesson, you focus on the last two steps of the overall process flow. You learn to incorporate emissions from the Use Phase calculation into the final emission calculation.

You can use manual emissions to incorporate emissions from the Use Phase calculation into the final emission calculation. For instance, in the AlmikaSoft example, the company first sets up the manual emissions for customers in Germany and India and then allocate those emissions to the footprint inventory of the Berlin headquarters.

The video shows how to use an allocation scheme for allocating customer product use emission to the main corporate’s Scope 3 emissions.

Now, you can go back to the Footprint Calculation of AlmikaSoft and enter the Manual Emissions from the Use Phase.
