Managing Emission Data
Overview
- This section allows you to manually enter/edit data.
- Users will only be able to enter data against the entities they have access to.
- Emission sources need to have been assigned to entities for them to appear in the Emission Source dropdown field.

2. Select the Entity you wish to add data to from the “Entities” dropdown. Use the Arrows to expand the hierarchy. If an entity or business unit is greyed out, you do not have access to these.
