Restatements

Reopen locked months to correct data, with the reason, the approval and the change recorded.

Governance → Restatements reopens locked months so their data can be corrected. Only client admins and methodology owners can request or approve a restatement.

Request and approve

  1. Click Request restatement, choose the asset and the month range, enter the Reason and click Submit request. Only locked months in the range are reopened after approval.
  2. An approver clicks Approve (comment optional) or Reject (comment required). Approval reopens the months.
  3. Correct the data and let the recalculation finish.
  4. Submit, review, approve and lock the months again on Periods. The restatement becomes Completed.

What is recorded

  • Change is the difference between the relocked totals and the originally locked totals (Scope 1 plus location-based Scope 2).
  • Base year flags a Base-year recalculation when the change to base-year emissions is larger than your organisation’s threshold, set on Settings → General (Base-year recalculation threshold (%)).
  • The request, approval, reopened months and the change are in the audit log. Evidence can be attached to a restatement.
