Team Collaboration & User Management
Carbon accounting is a team effort. NetNada makes it easy to invite colleagues for data collection and external advisors for expert review—with role-based access that keeps everyone focused on their responsibilities.
How It Works
Carbon accounting projects span 6-12 months and require input from multiple stakeholders. NetNada provides distinct collaboration pathways for internal team members and external advisors, ensuring the right people have the right access.
Invite Internal Team Members
Navigate to Admin > Invites > Team Members tab to generate shareable invite links. Send links via email or internal channels. Invited colleagues create accounts and join your organisation's workspace.
Assign Roles and Responsibilities
Team members can be assigned specific tasks in Task Manager. Distribute data collection across departments—facilities for utilities, finance for spend data, operations for fleet information.
Invite External Advisors
Navigate to Admin > Invites > Advisors tab to create advisor-specific invite links. Alternatively, enter unique connection codes provided by your sustainability consultant or auditor.
Advisor Collaboration
Connected advisors can review evidence, verify audit trails, upload data on your behalf, and help prepare reports. Their access is designed for support without disrupting your team's workflow.
Manage Access Over Time
View and manage all connected users and advisors from Admin settings. Revoke access when team members leave or engagements end. Maintain clear records of who has platform access.
Why Use Team Collaboration Features
Distributed Data Collection
Carbon data lives across your organisation. Invite the people who know the data—facilities, finance, operations, HR—to contribute directly rather than funnelling everything through one person.
Expert Support Access
Sustainability consultants and auditors need platform access to do their jobs. Advisor invites provide appropriate access without sharing login credentials or creating security risks.
Role-Appropriate Access
Team members see tasks assigned to them and can upload data. Advisors can review and support but can't disrupt operational settings. Access matches responsibility.
Audit Trail for Access
Know who has accessed your account and when. User management provides clear records for security review and audit compliance.
Flexible Engagement Models
Whether you work with consultants on retainer, engage auditors annually, or have rotating team responsibilities, the collaboration model adapts to your needs.
Centralised Hub
All stakeholders work in the same platform. No version control issues, no email attachment tracking, no spreadsheet chaos. One source of truth for your carbon data.
Who Needs Team Collaboration Features
Sustainability Managers Coordinating Teams
You own the carbon footprint but need data from many colleagues. Invite team members, assign tasks, and track who has contributed without being a bottleneck.
CFOs Overseeing Climate Reporting
Climate reporting is increasingly a finance responsibility. Invite sustainability team members and consultants with appropriate access to prepare compliant disclosures.
Organisations Using External Consultants
If you work with sustainability consultancies or Big 4 firms, advisor invites let them access your data efficiently. No credential sharing, no manual data exports.
Companies Undergoing External Audit
Climate disclosures require audit. Invite auditors with review access to verify calculations, check documentation, and complete their work within the platform.
Multi-Department Organisations
When carbon data spans facilities, finance, procurement, HR, and operations, inviting representatives from each department creates efficient data collection workflows.
Team Collaboration Features
Team Member Invites
Generate shareable invite links for internal colleagues. Links can be sent via email or internal communication channels for easy onboarding.
Advisor Invites
Create invite links specifically for external advisors and consultants. Advisor role provides review and support access with appropriate limitations.
Connection Codes
Enter unique codes provided by advisors to establish connections. Simple, secure linking without sharing sensitive credentials.
User Management Dashboard
View all connected team members and advisors. See invitation status, last login, and role assignments from Admin settings.
Access Revocation
Remove users when team members leave or engagements end. Maintain security by managing active access continuously.
Task Assignment Integration
Invited team members can be assigned tasks in Task Manager. Connect user access with specific data collection responsibilities.
Activity Tracking
See when users last logged in and contributed. Identify engagement levels and follow up with inactive team members.
Role-Based Permissions
Different roles have different access levels. Team members manage their assigned areas; advisors provide support and review.
