Module licensing guide
What this module covers for Malaysian buyers
Emissions tracking licence scope
Sustainability journals, purchase document emission fields and carbon equivalent calculations are part of the Business Central application accessed through user subscriptions. ESG analysts who create journal entries need Essentials or Premium users. Executives viewing scorecards may use Team Member where read-only access suffices.
- Manual and recurring sustainability journals
- Emission recording on purchase invoices
- Water and waste intensity tracking
- Copilot estimates with visible calculation formulas
Reporting and CSRD alignment
Sustainability scorecards track progress against goals by site or country. Data collected in Business Central can transfer to Project ESG Reporting for regulatory file generation where that app is licensed. Crest confirms which user counts need write access versus report viewing.
- Goals with baseline and target periods
- Vendor and item sustainability certificates
- Internal carbon fee setup by scope or facility
- Integration path to CSRD, ASRS and BRSR outputs
Value chain and carbon fees
Scope 3 calculations draw from manufacturing, transfers and project transactions already in Business Central. Internal carbon fees support decision-making without a separate sustainability SKU. Premium manufacturing users feeding production data and Essentials finance users posting fees may share one tenant under different user tiers.
- Value chain entries from operational transactions
- Digital Product Passport data preparation on items
- CBAM and EPR fee calculations for EU trade context
- Mixed Essentials and Premium users on one ESG model
