Get Emission Data via kolum

Inviting suppliers to enter emissions data directly in kolum is a fast, accurate way to capture upstream emissions for your purchased articles. It reduces manual work, keeps data tied to the right items, and lets suppliers take ownership inside your shared system. This workflow works best when suppliers are ready to participate actively in tracking.

How it works

1) Add & invite the supplier

• Go to Suppliers in kolum.

• Add the supplier (if they’re not already in your workspace).

• Send an invitation so they can create a kolum account and access their workspace.

2) Link the supplier to purchased CBAM goods

• In Imports, create the relevant import, assign the CN code, and connect the supplier.

• The linked CN-code article will appear on the supplier’s subpage in the Purchased CBAM goods table.

• When the supplier provides data, it will show up in this table.

• Note: if the country of origin differs for the same CN code, each country appears as a separate row.

3) Supplier provides emissions data

• The supplier sees the Purchased CBAM goods you linked to them in their kolum workspace.

• They can enter direct and indirect emissions at the CN-code level using verified measurements or calculated values.

• If they already know the values, they can click Provide data to enter them directly, or use kolum’s built-in calculator.

• If the same CN code spans multiple production countries, they can add additional entries per country.

4) Review & integrate

• Once submitted, you’ll receive a notification.

• Accept or reject the data from the notification. Only accepted data is reflected in the Purchased CBAM goods table.
