YOU NEED TO BE SHERLOCK HOLMES TO DIG ‘RELEVANT’ INFORMATION OUT OF THIS GARBAGE OF INFORMATION….YOU HAVE AN INFORMATION OVERLOAD AND YOU DON’T HAVE THE REQUISITE INFORMATION – AT THE TIME WHEN YOU REQUIRE IT THE MOST.
MORE TIME IS SPENT ON DATA MINING, DATA GATHERING AND LESS TIME IS SPENT ON DATA ANALYSIS
A Simple ExplanationThe idea behind XBRL, eXtensible Business Reporting Language, is simple. Instead of treating financial information as a block of text - as in a standard internet page or a printed document - it provides an identifying tag for each individual item of data. This is computer readable. For example, company net profit has its own unique tag.
META DATA (DATA ABOUT DATA) SET OUT IN A TAXONOMY (OR DATA DICTIONARY) IT CAPTURES THE DEFINITION OF INDIVIDUAL REPORTING CONCEPTS AND THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THEM---------------It is not just data or text that floats along with an electronic tag. The Tag contains attributes or meta data & Thus, it is not just 'content' but also the 'context' that is being transmitted.
XBRL is Royalty free.. However, here lies the catch : Basically, the Data Standard (Taxonomy) is free - The Conversion Utility and the Viewer – applications required to generate and view the Financial Statements in XBRLare developed by Proprietary vendors and hence subject to both royalty and licenses.
An EXTENSION TAXONOMY allows a company to create and customize concepts and elements for their particular reporting practices. Extension taxonomies import then build on, or “extend” the core reporting taxonomy.
AN INTERESTING POINT TO NOTE IS XBRL IS – BEING CONCEPTUALISED AND DEVELOPED BY CA / CPA AND NOT COMPUTER PROGRAMMERS. THE FATHER OF XBRL IS A CA/ CPA. PERSONS WHO HAVE KEY POSTS IN XBRL ARE CA / CPA AND NOT COMPUTER PROGRAMMERS.WE CAN SAFELY SAY XBRL IS DEMOCRACY FOR CA FRATERNITY – FOR THE ACCOUNTANTS, BY THE ACCOUNTANTS AND OF THE ACCOUNTANTS.
XBRL is democracy for Accountants – Of the Accountants, by the Accountants and (for the Accountants)

HUMOURA famous inspirational speaker said:"The best years of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who was not my wife!"The audience was silent with shock.He continued: "She was my mother!"Applause and laughter!A man tried this at home.After a few pegs, he said loudly to his wife, in kitchen: "The best years of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who was not my wife!"Standing for a moment trying to recall the second half, he finally blurted out: "I can't remember who she was!" By the time he regained his senses, he was on a hospital bed, recovering from burns of boiling water! MORAL: Don't copy if you can't paste!
Rather than treating financial and business information as a block of text, as in a standard internet page or a printed document, XBRL allocates a computer readable identifying tag for each individual item of data. This enables reporting software to collect relevant data and place it in the appropriate financial reports. Businesses and accountants gain significant benefits through easier preparation, analysis and communication of information. These benefits include cost savings, greater efficiency, and improved accuracy and reliability of information.

National jurisdictions have different accounting regulations and accordingly separate Taxonomies are developed for different reporting purposes such as Indian GAAP C & I, IFRS, Bank Regulatory reporting, etcXBRL Specification 2.1 & XBRL Dimension 1.0 – Specifications for the Taxonomy.
An Instance Document is the XBRL financial report. -- OUTPUTExamples of instance documents include a set of financial statement or an earnings release encoded in XBRL format
Eg. ASSETS = LIABILITY + EQUITYSpecify Enumeration : Type of Goods = [Traded] [Manufactured]CIN Format – Valid CIN / SRN Format – Valid SRNMandatory Element, Use Only in case of Consolidated Financial StatementsEtcUse of Business RulesTo explain the data we are collecting; orTo explain the data which needs to be collected; orValidate the data prior to it being submittedBusiness Rules further express the semantic meaning of the data.
APPLICATIONS ARE INTERACTING WITHOUT HUMAN INTERVENTION / MANUAL PROCESSESSThe introduction of XBRL tags enables automated processing of business information by computer software, cutting out laborious and costly processes of manual re-entry and comparison. Computers can ACCESS, EXTRACT AND PROCESS XBRL data "intelligently": they can recognise the information in a XBRL document, select it, analyse it, store it, exchange it with other computers and present it automatically in a variety of ways for users. XBRL greatly increases the speed of handling of financial data, reduces the chance of error and permits automatic checking of informationXBRL is a format for exchanging information between applications. Therefore each application will store data in whatever form is most effective for its own requirements and import and export information in XBRL format so that it can be readily imported or exported in turn by other applications. In some applications, for example, the XBRL formatted information being used may be mostly tabular numeric information, hence easily manipulated in a relational database. In other applications, the XBRL information may consist of narrative document-like structures with a lot of text, so that a native XML database may be more appropriate. There is no mandatory relationship between XBRL and any particular database or other processing or storage architecture.
BAR CODING IS ASSOCIATED WITH SAVINGS / QUALITY / EFFICIENCY IN PRODUCT DISTRIBUTION.WE CANNOT EXPORT WITHOUT A BARCODE; YOU CANNOT RUN A COMPANY WITHOUT XBRL.XBRL “TAGS” can be thought of as a “Bar Code” system for financial information, allowing financial statements to be read and understood by a computer.
XBRL IS THE SINGLE LINK…!!
XBRL is an Accounting Standard : No. XBRL is simply a language for transmitting information. It must accurately reflect data reported under different standards – it does not change them. XBRL will never tell you… • when to recognize revenue ; • if you qualify for hedge accounting ; • whether you are required to consolidate a subsidiary XBRL provides a mechanism for communicating revenue or off balance sheet risk once you have determined what it is.XBRL is a Limited Chart of Accounts : No. XBRL Taxonomy is basically a Dictionary of key components and concepts in Financial Reports. Where, a Company / Entity has unique aspects to report in its Financials, XBRL allows Extensions.

XBRL will help achieve this. Institutes also believe that the development of XBRL will help position their members as valued knowledge providers for their clients. Businesses, large and small, are undergoing fundamental change. Accountants, as the managers of the underlying language of business, can help organisations fit into the new digital world, solve business issues and capitilise on opportunities.
The objectives of XBRL India are: To promote and encourage the adoption of XBRL in India as the standard for electronic business reporting in India To facilitate education and marketing of XBRL To develop and manage XBRL taxonomies To keep the developed XBRL taxonomies updated with regard to international developments To represent Indian interests within XBRL International To contribute to the international development of XBRL

MeaningIf there is grouping of multiple facts in a single fact then a footnote should be attached.For Example In Annual Report of the company there isLegal and Professional Fees 2113 Legal Expenses 87 However, there is only one element LegalandProfessionalCharges in the Taxonomy for these elements and as Extensions are not allowed we have to group elements then: LegalandProfessionalCharges 2200 and the following footnote should be given for LegalandProfessionalCharges Legal and Professional Fees 2113 + Legal Expenses 87 Total 2200
If HTML guidelines are not followed – HTML tags other than those permitted under the Filing Manual are present then – XBRL Validation Tool displays - Warning Message.
VALIDATIONS : Validating that the instance document is as per the latest and correct version of taxonomy prescribed by MCAAll mandatory elements have been enteredOther validations as per taxonomy / Business Rules prescribed by MCA.
XBRL is just replacing the paper documents into e-mode, so it is of foremost importance to ensure that XBRL is true and correct vis-a-vis signed hard copy financials.XBRL is a language for transmitting business information. It must accurately reflect data reported in the Annual Report – it does not change them. There is a slight misconception regarding the term "Validation" Validation as per MCA Validation Tool is a technical validation covering the following areas - whether tags are conforming to taxonomy, business rules, minimum tagging requirements, etc. – “properly formatted file”The second aspect is the correctness and completeness of the XBRL Instance vis-a vis the Annual Report - where lies the responsibility of the management & the professional (CA/CS/CWA) certifying the XBRL Instance. A proper XBRL filing would include Validation as per MCA Tool as well correct and complete representation of the facts in the Annual Report as certified by the Professional (CA/CS/CWA).
