Product description
XBRL Taxonomy Loading
The
XBRL Tagger can load and display any valid XBRL taxonomy. Due to its
generic implementation, new taxonomies can be used without updated. The
taxonomies are represented using its Presentation, Calculation and
Definition Linkbase. Translations of taxonomy items in form of Labels
are displayed in all languages shipped with the taxonomy.
Tagging of Word, XHTML, InDesign (ePub) and PDF files with XBRL taxonomy items.
The
XBRL Tagger can open, parse and display the document file formats
mentioned above. Taxonomy items can be mapped to the document. The
tagging itself is performed by doing drag & drop and the XBRL Tagger
is supporting the user by doing consistency checks. Multi-column tables
can be mapped by using dimensional elements from the taxonomy. All
required meta-data like reporting period and currency will be
automatically detected if possible. By using different colours for
tagging’s, a status-based workflow can be used. The mapping itself can
be exported and imported – the XBRL Tagger will restore the tags and
even if numbers are texts are changed. It is possible to do a
roll-forward and export a mapping to Excel.
Taxonomy-Extension
The
Tagger has a taxonomy extension functionality, by selecting line items
that can’t be mapped from the taxonomy. This includes an anchoring
functionality, as described by ESMA.
Auto-Tagger
The
Auto-Tagger is a functionality, that enables mapping of tables by
pushing a button. There are two algorithms that all0w it: A fuzzy name
comparisons, that is matching the names from line items to taxonomy
items. The second algorithm allows auto-mapping based on Artificial
Intelligence (AI). It is trained with existing IFRS XBRL Reports, by
using the specific label that is shipped with each taxonomy extension
and the original name of the taxonomy item. AMANA is updating this
functionality with more learning data on a regular basis and the
accuracy of automated tagging will improve.
XHTML Converter und iXBRL Generation
The
XBRL Tagger converts Word, PDF and ePub files into valid XHTML, which
is required for Inline XBRL (iXBRL). It preserves the formatting and
layout of the original document as far as possible. After applying the
XBRL tags as defined by the mapping, an iXBRL file will be saved.
XBRL Validation
When generating an iXBRL file, a full XBRL validation is performed covering the following specifications:
- XBRL Specification 2.1
- XBRL Dimensions 1.0
- XBRL Formula 1.0
- Table Linkbase 1.0
- Extensible Enumerations 1.0 und 2.0
- Inline XBRL 1.1 incl. XHTML and Transformation Registries 1-4
Additionally, a so called Filing Rule validation is be performed (e.g. ESEF Reporting Manual).
Document requirements and limitations
The
XBRL Tagger is able to tag MS Word, InDesign, XHTML and PDF documents
properly with the following requirements and limitations:
- It is not possible to tag any value of a table that is included as "image" in a document.
- For
MS Word documents it is required to use styles (heading 1, heading 2,
etc.) to structure the documents. The chapter headings are used by the
Tagger to allow easy navigation through the document. All tables that
have to be tagged must be normal Word tables (no embedded Excel or
similar). To change the outline level of styles, right click on the
paragraph and select "Paragraph" and then set "Outline level". For more
information look at our FAQ item 20 and 21.


- Shapes
and images anchored in front of text or behind text are placed at the
anchor position. This might lead to different layout when converting to
XHTML.
- Two-column text layout is not yet supported for MS Word to XHTML conversion.
- InDesign
documents (IDD) can be tagged by exporting to ePub _(File → Export to
ePub). The document must use fonts that are available for web-browsing
(XHMTL).
- Scanned (PDF) reports can't be tagged, the XBRL Tagger does not include an OCR module.
