Update DMA templates for simplified ESRS
If your Sustainability Reporting workspace includes the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) add-on and you want to prepare your double-materiality assessment (DMA) templates for the new topics of the simplified European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), you can now request a Spreadsheet template from your Customer Success Manager or advisory partner:
- To start fresh for the simplified ESRS and not retain your DMA templates' current topics, request the Simplified DMA topics and DRs bulk import Spreadsheet to import the new topics and disclosure requirements (DRs).
- If you previously used the DMA templates for the ESRS Delegated Act of 2023 and want to retain their current topics, request the Simplified DMA topics and DR update accelerator Spreadsheet to decide how your current topics map to the new topics.
Note: Consult your advisory partner to help decide which template is right for you. Your partner can also assist if you choose to update your DMA templates' current topics or their impacts, risks, and opportunities (IROs).
