XBRLizer+  The XBRL report editor

Reporting Estándar has developed the easiest- to- use XBRL report editor in the market which keeps the user away from the complexity of XBRL. But XBRLizer+ is something more than a XBRL information editor, it is a complete solution for users who demand more from an XBRL tool.

XBRLizer+ works as a spreadsheet where, clicking on a cell provides automatically all the necessary information about the reported value. That is, the company’s name, reporting period, associated dimensions, measurement units, currency, etc. All this data can be edited and changed later manually. Additionally, the tool will prompt the user in the case the value is not automatically detected.

Main features of XBRLizer

Multilingual

Users can select multiple languages, and their preference order. Then, taxonomy text labels will be shown according that selection. So, if a text label is not available in the main language the software automatically will search for another available label in the next language of the list. XBRLizer+ is the only XBRL software in the market that offers such functionality.

Multiple content

For XBRL report with more than one form, users can select which form(s) they will fill.

Multiple ways of displaying information

XBRLizer available views are in order of appearance: Regular, Dimensional and the last one (and selected) Form

The available views are:

  • Regular view: All facts within the report are displayed without taking in consideration its dimensional aspects.
  • Multidimensional view: If a taxonomy contains XBRL dimensions, informs can be viewed as a one dimension or as a multidimensional table. In multidimensional view, users can rearrange dimensions in order to show reports according their needs.
  • Form view: This view is available for those reports whose taxonomy makes use of the TABLE 1.0 specification.
  • iXBRL view: If the XBRL report comes in iXBRL format, the iXBRL view will render the information like a browser will do, adding additional XBRL information.

XBRLizer+ menu functionalities

XBRLizer+ incorporates improvements aimed to assist final users:

The plugin allows reading templates generated by the XBRLizer+ and, by using drag and drop, select the cells that will contain the data in the final XBRL report.

  • XBRL Mapper data is a tool incorporated as an Excel complement. This tool allows the creation of Excel templates to collect financial data for reporting, that could be transform automatically into XBRL reports. Therefore, final users without XBRL knowledge can fill reports easily.
  • RS-XBRLizer tool and the Mapper incorporated in the same one, is intuitive use and require few hours of training by the client for the optimal use of the tool.
  • Users can access to updated taxonomies from the tool, since it has a permanent online catalogue, which compiles continuously the corresponding updates and new taxonomies published.
  • The tool has automatic formulation of the loaded taxonomy reports, allowing specific assessment of financial statements sections. By doing so, we avoid inconsistencies among defined formulas in the taxonomy and the specific financial formulation of the company.

With RS-XBRLIZER+ the preparation of templates in Excel format can be personalised according to following parameters:

  • Entity to report (Supervisor or specific Organism)
  • Applicable taxonomy
  • Specific financial information of client
  • Reporting period.
