Manage external applications connected to your Position Green platform. You can view the status of connected services (such as HiBob, Metry, or Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central) and see when data was last synchronized. Additional services like Amazon S3, Arcadia, Azure Blob Storage, Bamboo HR, and Elhub Statnett are listed here.

2. Home & Hub configuration 

Customize default display rules and metrics for your organization's dashboard and management hubs:

  • Overdue Limit: Set the threshold (in number of days) after which an incomplete data registration is marked as overdue.
  • Carbon Management Hub: Expand and configure display preferences for specific indicators, including Emissions per unit of revenue, Emissions per employee, Data quality, and Methods for Scope 3.

3. Email templates

Review and manage standard and custom email communications sent automatically by the platform to users. This section includes notification types such as:

  • Automatic reporting reminders
  • Migration and module updates
  • Collaboration invites and reminders
  • User invitations and registration confirmations


Each template displays its intended description, link expiration period (such as 30 days), and whether a custom override is active.

4. Registrations

Configure general rules for data reporting quality across all organizational units and reporting periods:

  • General Threshold: Set a baseline percentage threshold to highlight unusual values in registrations across all measures (default starting point is typically 10%). Specific thresholds set on individual measures during setup will take precedence over this baseline.
  • Validation (Four-eyes principle): Configure rules to ensure data integrity:
    • Warn reporters when they attempt to confirm a registration where they submitted the data themselves.
    • Prevent reporters entirely from confirming registrations where they submitted data themselves.
  • Previous Data Visibility: Enable or disable the option to allow all users to view previously reported historical data.
