Communicate Footprints to SAP Green Ledger
When the SAP Green Ledger connects to the integrated SAP Sustainability Footprint Management system, it retrieves the emissions data for the inventory scope calculation variant across all periods.
The SAP Green Ledger consumes data at a period level based on the footprint inventory scope.
When the data is reviewed on the SFM side, it becomes accessible to the SAP Green Ledger. For instance, if data for January and February are reviewed on SFM, only those months' data will be visible in the SAP Green Ledger.
Watch the following video to learn how to communicate the carbon footprints from SAP Sustainability Footprint Management as journal to the SAP Green Ledger.
Summary
The integration of SAP SFM with SAP Green Ledger provides a seamless process for communicating corporate carbon footprints and converting them into journal entries. This end-to-end solution allows organizations to manage their sustainability initiatives more effectively, ensuring accurate financial reporting and analysis.
