Company Settings
Your company profile is the foundation of your carbon assessment. Accurate information enables reliable calculations and a compliant BEGES report.
General information
From Settings > Company, fill in the basic information:
- Company name — The official name of your company as it appears on your Kbis extract.
- Industry sector — Determines the pre-configured BEGES categories. A consulting firm doesn't have the same emission sources as a transport company.
- Number of employees — Used to calculate your tCO2e/employee ratio and assign your carbon badge.
- Revenue — Optional. Allows calculating carbon intensity per euro of revenue in the report.
The SIRET number
The SIRET (14 digits) identifies each establishment of your company. The first 9 digits form the SIREN (company identification), the last 5 the NIC (establishment identification).
Where to find your SIRET?
On your Kbis extract, your supplier invoices, or by searching your company on societe.com or annuaire-entreprises.data.gouv.fr. The SIRET is optional but recommended for BEGES report compliance.
Significance threshold
The significance threshold is the minimum percentage of emissions a category must represent to be considered significant in your assessment. By default, Dekko uses 5% in accordance with the BEGES V5 methodology.
Example: if your total footprint is 100 tCO2e, any category representing less than 5 tCO2e (5%) can be excluded from the detailed scope — but must be mentioned as excluded with justification.
BEGES regulations
The BEGES V5 methodology requires covering at least 95% of emissions within your scope. Excluded categories must be justified in the report (e.g., "No company vehicles").
Scope configuration
In settings, you can enable or disable scopes based on your activity:
- Scope 1 — Direct emissions. Enabled by default. Covers vehicle fuel, gas/oil heating, and refrigerant leaks.
- Scope 2 — Purchased energy. Enabled by default. Covers electricity, district heating, and district cooling.
- Scope 3 — Indirect emissions (commuting, purchases, waste). Optional in Dekko, gradually being expanded.
Don't disable a scope without reason
Disabling a scope excludes all its categories from the assessment. Only do this if your company truly has no emission source in that scope (e.g., a fully remote company with no owned premises could disable Scope 1).
Roles and permissions
Dekko offers three access levels for your team:
- Administrator — Full access. Can invite members, modify company settings, manage billing, and delete data.
- Editor — Can create and edit assessments, add emissions, upload invoices, and generate reports. Cannot invite members or manage billing.
- Viewer — Read-only access. Can view assessments, reports, and add comments. Ideal for external stakeholders or management.
Organization tip
Designate a single Administrator (the director or CSR manager) and assign the Editor role to people who enter data. External auditors can be invited as Viewers.
