The new allocations feature in Microsoft Sustainability Manager enables you to distribute emissions data across specific business subsets through a dedicated allocation node within the calculation model builder. Define allocation logic using reference data (for example, production volume or revenue) and activity data (for example, emissions). The allocation node supports various methods such as mass- and volume-based allocation methods, allowing emissions to be proportionally distributed based on selected data. Configure the node to join multiple datasets, aggregate values, and apply allocation logic that outputs labeled emissions data for downstream reporting.

This feature covers these scenarios:

Allocating emissions from facilities to items based on facility item production data, such as item weight or volume.
Allocating emissions from facilities to organizational units based on facility capacity data.
Allocating supplier emissions to purchased products.

Note

Tables can also be extended to support other scenarios. However, custom tables aren't supported at this time.

This feature is not enabled by default. To enable it:

Update your Sustainability Manager environment to the latest release.
Check that your organization has a Premium license.
Go to Settings > Application > Advanced calculations (preview), and set Enable advanced calculations (preview) to Yes.
