  • WM-FLW-008 Mass-balance / Material Flow - Resource Consumption is one use-side source-qualified flow assertion that may participate in a mass balance. Mass-balance system definition, complete input-output reconciliation and conservation analysis remain external; the candidate parent signal is held for review.
  • Resource and inventory masters - Consumption binds a resource and may explain a stock reduction, but resource identity, stock balance, ownership, availability and valuation remain external.
  • Meter, sensor and observation - Readings and observations support a consumption assertion. Device identity, datastream, calibration and observation lifecycle remain externally mastered.
  • Invoice, cost, ledger and allocation - Invoice quantities and costs may reconcile with consumption but do not replace its physical quantity and measurement boundary; financial records remain external.
  • Emissions, footprint and environmental impact - Consumption is an activity datum for external factor, footprint or LCA calculations. It does not own emission factors, characterization or impact conclusions.
  • Baseline, target, plan and forecast - The model records references and comparison assertions. Baseline models, targets, plans, forecasts and accountable performance decisions remain external masters.
  • Water, energy and material profiles - The common root preserves generic identity, boundary, quantity and provenance, while domain profiles define withdrawal, discharge, carrier, conversion, renewable, recycled and quality semantics.

Not applicable

  • Often confused with a meter reading, an invoice and an emission.

Capabilities and actions required Filled

  • Register consumption assertion: Create one governed consumption identity, kind and revision.
  • Bind consumer and resource: Bind external consumer, resource, activity, asset, facility and place identities.
  • Define boundary and interval: Record organizational, operational and measurement boundaries plus qualified clocks.
  • Record measurement: Attach meter, observation, counter, calibration and quality references.
  • Derive consumption quantity: Calculate a qualified value from observations, counters and flow components.

  • Reconcile consumption sources: Compare meter, estimate, allocation, invoice and balance evidence without last-write-wins.
  • Evaluate performance: Compare normalized consumption with baseline, target and indicator definitions.

  • GRI defines sustainability-reporting disclosures and does not become the source master for meter, stock, invoice or impact facts.
  • Allocation, billing, tax, resource rights, environmental reporting, privacy and retention consequences depend on organization, sector and jurisdiction.
