In this section, you’ll be able to configure and organize key components that define how your data is managed, reported, and accessed across the platform. ### **What You Can Configure** 1. **KPIs** Create, manage, and edit the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that track your organization's ESG performance. Each KPI can be associated with various dimensions and periodicities to match your reporting requirements. 2. **Variables** Set up custom variables linked to KPIs, adding flexibility to your data tracking. Variables can be used to capture specific data inputs or metrics that influence the performance of your KPIs. 3. **Users & Roles** Manage user accounts and assign roles within the platform. This section allows administrators to create user profiles for data providers, validators, and managers, ensuring each person has the right access and responsibilities. 4. **Dimensions** Organize data based on specific dimensions, such as business units, countries, or regions. By assigning KPIs to these dimensions, you ensure that data is captured and reported according to the company's structure. 5. **Translations** Customize the platform to support multiple languages by configuring translations for KPIs, variables, and other elements. This is particularly useful for multinational organizations that operate in different regions. --- By mastering the **Configuration** environment, administrators can create a tailored and efficient setup that ensures accurate data collection, streamlined workflows, and effective reporting. Properly configuring KPIs, variables, users, dimensions, and translations will help ensure your organization can manage ESG data seamlessly. ---  **If you still have doubts and need to get in touch with our customer success team, please reach out to "[support@aplanet.org](mailto:support@aplanet.org)" and you will be attended as soon as possible.** - [ESG](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/esg?hsLang=en) - [Sustainability](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/sustainability?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Introduction](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/sustainability?hsLang=en#introduction) - [Power BI](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/sustainability?hsLang=en#power-bi) - [My tasks](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/sustainability?hsLang=en#my-tasks) - [Edit](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/sustainability?hsLang=en#edit) - [Reports](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/sustainability?hsLang=en#reports) - [Configuration](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/sustainability?hsLang=en#configuration) - [Activity log](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/sustainability?hsLang=en#activity-log) - [Neutrality](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/neutrality?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Introduction](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/neutrality?hsLang=en#introduction) - [Configuration](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/neutrality?hsLang=en#configuration) - [Dashboard](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/neutrality?hsLang=en#dashboard) - [Data collection](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/neutrality?hsLang=en#data-collection) - [Communication](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/neutrality?hsLang=en#communication) - [Action](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/neutrality?hsLang=en#action) - [Certification](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/neutrality?hsLang=en#certification) - [Materiality](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/materiality?hsLang=en) - [Supply chain](https://help.aplanet.org/migration/en/helpcenter/supply-chain?hsLang=en) - [Default HubSpot Blog](https://blog.aplanet.org/blog) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://help.aplanet.org/hs-fs/hubfs/APLANET_Isotipo-2.png?width=19&height=24&name=APLANET_Isotipo-2.png "Chill listening crop-3")](https://aplanet.org) If you still have doubts and need to get in touch with our customer success team, please reach out to "support@aplanet.org" and you will be attended as soon as possible.
