SAP Green Ledger
Turn carbon data into a trusted business asset. SAP Green Ledger integrates carbon and financial data to deliver transparent, auditable carbon accounting.
What is SAP Green Ledger?
Most organizations today measure greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by collecting and aggregating data after the fact. SAP Green Ledger takes the next step by embedding carbon directly into the financial processes, structures, and dimensions your business already uses.
Available as an application on SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP), the foundation of SAP Business AI Platform, and integrated with SAP S/4HANA Cloud, SAP Green Ledger enables organizations to post GHG quantities alongside financial transactions. This gives finance teams a carbon view of the business — granular, auditable, and actionable as their financial reporting.
