iXBRL Tagging Services
iXBRL refers to Inline XBRL and is a format that allows filers to embed XBRL data directly into a HyperText Markup Language (HTML) document.
What are the potential benefits of iXBRL?The iXBRL format has the potential to provide a number of benefits to companies and users of the information. iXBRL could decrease filing preparation costs, improve the quality of structured data, and by improving data quality, increase the use of XBRL data by investors and other market participants.
Has the SEC permitted voluntary filing using iXBRL?The Commission issued an order under the Securities Exchange Act to allow companies that comply with certain conditions listed in the order to file structured financial statement data required in their annual and quarterly reports that is integrated within their HTML filings through March 2020.
How will iXBRL submissions be viewed?The Commission has incorporated tools into the EDGAR system that will enable users to view information about the reported XBRL data contained in embedded tags on the Commission's website, using any recent standard Internet browser, without the need to access a separate document. With this feature, when a user views a filing submitted with iXBRL on EDGAR, the user will be able to see tags and the related meta data while viewing the HTML filing. The public can explore the functionality of the iXBRL viewer that is in use on EDGAR by accessing a mock filing on the Commission's website. The contents of the sample filing are intended only to be used to demonstrate the iXBRL viewer and do not represent a legal interpretation or a statement of policy.
Will the Inline Viewer software source code be available for download?The Inline Viewer software is freely available to the public in an effort to facilitate the creation of cost effective IXBRL viewers and analytical products.
Where can I find the technical requirements related to filing using iXBRL?An updated EDGAR Filer Manual provides the technical requirements needed for filers to begin using iXBRL.
