The tables behind ESG / Sustainability Dashboard

ESG / Sustainability Dashboard ships with 17 tables, grouped here by the feature that uses them. Every record your team works with lives in one of them, and you can add fields and tables in Proto.

How the model is organised

Reporting periods and definitions

ESG periods connects Organization, Owner and Definition to Organizations, People and ESG metric definitions. Metric definitions.source definition connects the metric basis to its effective source definition.

Observation collection

ESG observations.Parent references ESG periods. Source mappings.Definition references ESG metric definitions and retains field mapping and transformation context.

Source evidence and coverage

Metric observations connects Source to ESG periods and Snapshot to source snapshots. Evidence documents connects the source period and verified by person.

Sustainability review

Review decisions connects Source and Reviewer, retaining source revision, Decision, Reason and evidence reference. Metric definitions.reviewed by records the definition's reviewer.

Metric results and trends

Metric results links Source, Metric and Run to ESG periods, metric definitions and operation runs. Period start, period end and dimension key establish the result context.

Follow-up and execution history

Follow up actions links Source and assigned to. Operation steps.Run references operation runs. State history connects Source and Actor with the recorded lifecycle transition.

Keys and references

Preserve Id identifiers and recognizable period Number and definition Code values. ESG periods.source record id identifies the external source record. Operation runs.operation key identifies an execution, while source revision and input hash describe the frozen source context. Metric results.Run retains the execution association.

Metric observations carries Unit with Value, Numerator and Denominator. Metric results obtains its measurement unit through metric definitions. Source snapshots.coverage start and coverage end describe coverage; captured at records capture time. These dates answer different questions during evidence review.

People records belong to Organizations and retain Email and Code. Resolve the signed-in user’s reporting identity during access setup before applying Owner or assigned to filters. Users remains the platform user table. Review decisions.source revision should be interpreted with ESG periods.Revision for the actual period decision.

Migration order

  1. Prepare Organizations, People and Users with the agreed reporting identities and access mapping.
  2. Prepare ESG metric definitions, source mappings and versioned metric definitions with their reviewed measurement basis.
  3. Add ESG periods with organization, owner, source identity and definition.
  4. Bring across source snapshots, ESG observations, metric observations and evidence documents with their source references and windows.
  5. Reconcile historical operation runs before operation steps and metric results, then review decisions, state history and follow up actions without replaying earlier actions.
