Writing Your Report

After completing the setup wizard, you can begin writing your VSME sustainability report using Karomia's rich text editor.

From data to report in hours

Report structure

Your VSME report is organized into sections based on the subtopics you selected during setup. Each section includes:

  • Guidance text — Explanations of what information is expected.
  • Editor area — Where you write your content.
  • Document attachments — Space to link supporting evidence.

Using the editor

The VSME editor provides the same features as the main report editor:

  • Text formatting (bold, italic, headings, lists).
  • Tables for structured data.
  • Links to external references.
  • Collaborative editing with team members.
  • Auto-save functionality.

Tips for writing

  • Be specific — Use concrete data, metrics, and examples rather than vague statements.
  • Reference your data — Link to supporting documents and evidence.
  • Stay focused — Each section has a specific purpose; keep content relevant to the subtopic.
  • Use consistent units — When reporting metrics, use consistent measurement units throughout.

  1. Navigate to the Documents section.

Before exporting:

  1. Review all sections for completeness and accuracy.
