Hello. We understand the issue and I have created a ticket for Tech to look into this. We round to 2 decimal places when showing aggregated values in the MBE v3 report, but we should not be rounding prior to aggregation. This rounding before aggregation is causing an issue so we'll look to fix this.
In other areas of the platform we should be rounding to 4 decimal places before aggregation. Please let us know if you have identified any areas where this is not the case.
Client and third party assurance provided the following feedback due to inconsistent rounding causing emission total differences between the monthly data summary report and the market-based emissions inventory: "recommends to review and standardize the rounding criteria applied across all tabs to ensure consistency between source data and consolidated reports, especially in cases where emissions are small but not zero. Aligning decimal precision across systems (e.g., Envizi reports) will contribute to greater accuracy, completeness, transparency and traceability of the inventory."
Consistency around reporting is extremely important. Having reports that have 2 different values is extremely frustrating. The market based power report only reports 2 decimal places for total emissions while it's reported to 4 decimal places in others. The different rounding in different places causes different totals to be generated.
