Problem: Reminder emails to approvers are not being sent every 3 days as required; they currently start on the 7th day instead of the 3rd.
  • GIVEN: An approver has received an initial request for approval in a data collection workflow
  • WHEN: The entity report remains unapproved for multiple days
  • THEN: The reminder email is not sent on Day 4 and Day 7 as per the new 3-day frequency; it starts from Day 7 instead
Fixed Behavior:  
The system should send the first reminder on Day 4 (i.e., 3 days after the initial request), and then continue sending reminders every 3 days (Day 7, Day 10, etc.) until the report is approved

Problem: Non-admin users assigned to an entity (e.g., entity managers or data providers) cannot be tagged in report comments.
  • GIVEN:  
    • User A has a non-admin role (e.g., entity manager)  
    • AND User A is associated as a data provider with Entity 1
  • WHEN: The list of users available to tag in a comment on a report associated with Entity 1 is displayed
  • THEN: User A is not present in the list of taggable users
Fixed Behavior:  
User A should be selectable and appear in the list of users available to tag in the comment section of the report

Problem: The “Go to Users to add” hint is incorrectly shown to non-admin users who do not have permission to view the Users page.
  • GIVEN: A user has a non-admin role without access to the Users page
  • WHEN: They try to tag a non-existing user in a comment
  • THEN: A hint saying “Go to Users to add” is displayed
Fixed Behavior:  
Non-admin users without access to the Users page should only see “No results” when the user does not exist; the “Go to Users to add” hint should only appear for users with permission to access that page.



What has changed?


Improved Activity Selection Experience

  • Display the full name of the Taxonomy goal next to each activity in the dropdown.
  • Show the goal name for already selected activities to enhance clarity.


Enhanced Visibility for Related Activities

  • Clearly indicate dependencies between activities to help users understand required selections.
  • Display related activities in greyed text to differentiate them.


Better Information Accessibility

  • Ensure an "Info" button is available for all activity entries, including combined activities.
  • Maintain tooltips for additional details without requiring excessive user interaction.

What is the added value?

  • Users can quickly identify activities by their full goal names.
  • Improved clarity in dependencies ensures smoother report completion.
  • Consistent information display enhances usability and reduces confusion.



What has changed?

Overhaul of Gap Analysis Report Interface
  • Redesigned Gap Analysis (GA) report to mirror steps 1 and 2 of the ESRS report layout.
  • Included full functionality: assign/exclude data points, change data collection methods, view justifications, and review history.
  • Logic from DMA transfer now reflected directly in GA report setup.
Seamless Import to ESRS Reports
  • Users can now import a GA report when creating a new ESRS report, copying its results 1:1 into steps 1 and 2.
  • Also possible to import a GA report into an existing ESRS report, allowing for flexible reuse of preparatory analysis.
Data Availability Tracking in Gap Analysis
  • Step 2 of GA report retains the ability to mark data points as available or not available.
  • This setting is not transferred to the ESRS report, ensuring GA-specific insights are preserved for internal analysis.

What is the added value?

  • Aligns GA with ESRS reporting flow, reducing redundant work and manual re-entry.
  • Enables direct reuse of analysis in ESRS, streamlining compliance preparation.
  • Supports early-stage data assessment while keeping reporting logic clean and consistent.





What has changed?


Improved CO2 Report Export Functionality
  • Include Scope 2 activities marked as excluded in the exported spreadsheet for full transparency.
  • Clearly label excluded activities to distinguish them from those included in total emissions.
Added Calculation Method Visibility for Scope 2 Activities
  • Show whether each Scope 2 activity uses Location-based or Market-based calculation in the export.
  • Helps ensure all necessary audit data is readily available in the export file.
Selective Report Export Option
  • Introduced a dropdown menu on the CO2 Data Collection page for selecting specific reports before export.
  • Allows users to export only relevant reports instead of the full dataset.

What is the added value?

  • Users can provide a complete and audit-ready report, including all Scope 2 activities and their calculation methods.
  • Selective export streamlines data sharing by focusing on the most relevant reports.
  • Better data labeling and visibility reduce manual work and improve trust in exported data.



What has changed?

  • A new “Deactivate”option is now available: 
    • In the three-dot menu of each supplier in the repository
    • As a bulk action for multiple suppliers
  • Once deactivated:
    • Supplier is visible in the repository but cannot be edited
    • Appears under a new “Deactivated Suppliers” section in Settings
    • All actions are disabled (e.g., requests, assignments, incident reports)
    • The existing “Inactive” status is now replaced with this improved functionality

  • Please Note: 

    • Only Admins and Entity Managers in the SCS module can deactivate or reactivate suppliers

    • Supplier relationships and historical data remain unchanged

  • Reactivation of The Supplier:

    • The action changes to “Re-activate” when viewing a deactivated supplier

    • Reactivation restores all functionalities

    • Requests remain cancelled even after reactivation

  • What Changes When a Supplier Is Deactivated?

    • Exports: Supplier excluded, unless using the "Repository Info Export" filter

    • Analytics & Dashboards: Supplier excluded

    • Requests & Assignments: Disabled

    • Incidents Tab: Supplier greyed out and unselectable; tooltip on hover: “Supplier is deactivated” / “Lieferant ist deaktiviert”

    • Supplier Login: Supplier can view their profile, but cannot edit
    • Import Files: Deactivated suppliers are ignored
    • UI Changes: All actions greyed out; only “Delete” and “Re-activate” remain active
    • Tooltips: Disabled actions show tooltip: “Action unavailable as supplier is deactivated…"

  • Tooltip info icons for Product & Country Risk in Abstract Assessment

    • Info icons are now displayed next to the Product Risk and Country Risk cards.
    • Hovering over the icons reveals a tooltip that explains the source of each risk value.
    • Product Risk Tooltip: "Product risk presents the product risk defined in the settings."
