Have multi-unit selection (units of measure per commodity) options out of the box for manual data entry.

Allow the company to select mtCO2e as a unit of measure to provide ultimate clarity of what tons are being used while also being able to match how many companies talk about, report on and have goals using mtCO2e as a standard method of communication.

Allow users to create their own custom reports without having to try to use a pre-created report from envizi, save a copy, and make edits.

We'd like to be able to use PowerReports with updated data in real time

We have been using PowerReports for reporting and find them helpful, but not having them update for 24 hours after the underlying data is updated is very frustrating and slows down our process greatly.
