Manage custom units

Use this spreadsheet to add custom units. You cannot add a custom unit within the temperature unit category.

The spreadsheet has two tabs 

• DataEntry: this tab is where you add custom units
• System units: a read-only tab of all system units in the application.

Any custom factor added with this spreadsheet is available in the factors list. Factors can also have multiple versions.

The most recent version is available for selection when working in the application, but previous versions may continue to be referenced to understand emissions data changes over time.

To create new factors or factor versions, complete the required columns in the spreadsheet. 

A minimum of one gas type is required for every factor version.
