The development of business models that boost fundamental changes in behavior to act more economically, ecologically, and socially is a challenging task because the consideration of sustainability is a multidimensional problem characterized by uncertainty and value conflicts. In order to deal with such complex tasks, methodological and technical tool support is required. Even though tools for business model development are well-established, they typically focus on economic obligations and pay little attention to ecological and social concerns. To bridge this gap, we shed light on the question of how functions for software can be designed to respect sustainability in business models. We present a software prototype and prescriptive design knowledge in the form of design principles and features, and thereby aim to contribute to the information systems body of knowledge by providing guidance to software designers and business model developers on how to reflect on sustainability.

商业模型的发展促进了行为的根本变化，使其在经济，生态和社会方面的行为更加富有挑战性，因为对可持续性的考虑是一个以不确定性和价值冲突为特征的多维问题。为了处理这些复杂的任务，需要方法和技术工具的支持。尽管已经建立了完善的业务模型开发工具，但它们通常专注于经济义务，而很少关注生态和社会问题。为了弥合这一差距，我们阐明了如何设计软件功能以尊重业务模型中的可持续性的问题。我们以设计原则和功能的形式介绍软件原型和规范性的设计知识，
