Continia Sustainability and Document Capture

As environmental challenges intensify, the concept of business success is evolving to prioritize sustainability. Climate change, caused by excess greenhouse gases (GHG), is disrupting our climate and pushing us to find a balance between emissions and the Earth’s natural ability to absorb them.

By integrating Continia Sustainability with Document Capture, you can more effectively track and manage your climate impact – enabling your business to comply with regulations while contributing to a more sustainable future.

About Continia Sustainability

Continia Sustainability is an end-to-end solution for Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central that enables you to collect, manage, and track all data related to your company's climate impact. It helps you achieve sustainability goals, avoid the financial risks of carbon liabilities, and comply with new government regulations.

Starting from January 2023, large companies and listed small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) operating within the EU market must report their Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) impact as mandated by the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). Similar regulations are being implemented worldwide, encouraging businesses to enhance transparency in their environmental reporting. Continia Sustainability simplifies ESG reporting within Business Central, helping companies monitor their carbon footprint and initiate sustainability efforts smoothly.

Shared functionality

Integrating the emission data tracking features of Continia Sustainability into Document Capture allows businesses to automate emissions reporting, ensuring regulatory compliance and helping reduce their carbon footprint. By capturing emissions data from financial documents, companies can streamline sustainability efforts and align with environmental goals.

Key steps:

  • Accounts for amounts - link a G/L Account to an Environmental Account to directly connect financial transactions with their environmental impact.
  • Template fields - you have the option to add environmental fields to a template. Once these fields are configured and linked to a G/L account, they will be populated automatically based on the document data. For more information, refer to the Tracking Emissions in Document Capture with Continia Sustainability article.
  • Recognize relevant fields - coming soon: Document Capture automatically identifies and captures environmental data fields in each document.
