Legislation-backed regulations abound today to help control the financial arena. Many a business actor is concerned by mandatory financial reporting to submit to national or European authorities. Reporting formats are imposed and implement complex business rules. The emerging standard for framing data and shaping reports is XBRL, the eXtensible Business Reporting Language.

The definition of XBRL reports is supplied by the Authorities under the form of a specific XBRL taxonomy, to be viewed as a "dictionary" of reporting concepts capturing business meaning, inter-relationships and any other pertinent semantic meaning. It also offers a solution for rendering and validating reports. Needless to say that an XBRL taxonomy can be sensibly more complex than a basic report template!

Banks, investment firms, insurance companies, pension funds, and tomorrow public entities or "listed" companies (whose shares are traded in a stock-market), must report regularly on business results, financial shape and stamina, and compliance with regulations.

To this end, they have to take a series of snapshots of their positions and state of affairs, and to feed it into an XBRL report. This entails capturing all relevant information from within their financial and ICT systems, making it fit the supplied XBRL taxonomy and submitting the resulting XBRL instance (i.e. the files created) for validation to the National Authorities which in turn will feed the corresponding European Supervisory Authorities.

You don’t do this in the wink of an eye! This is where Acsone’s AREVIO XBRL wizard will boost your reporting accuracy and proficiency!
