Digital Financial Reporting

Below is a link to a web page that provides a list of 14 pretty high quality XBRL-based financial reports of public companies. (Or you can click here.)

Each of the 14 XBRL-based financial reports were evaluated using techniques summarized in the document Blueprint for Creating Zero-Defect XBRL-based Digital Financial Reports.

I am comparing the validation results obtained from different software validation tools, this is a work in progress.

For each of these 14 XBRL-based financial filings of public companies, the following is provided: (the links are all for the FIRST filing)

• Link to the XBRL instance
• Link to the SEC filing page (where you can get the HTML, XBRL, or whatever else was submitted to the SEC)
• Link to the XBRL Cloud Evidence Package (human readable information about the report)
• Link to the XBRL Cloud Viewer
• Link to the XBRL Cloud Edgar Dashboard (which shows inconsistencies for submitted filings)
• Link to the Reporting Checklist/Disclosure Mechanics results (shows validation results)
• Link to the Fundamental Accounting Concept Relations results (shows validation results)
• Link to information about the Reporting Style of the company

Also, links to all the machine-readable rules that were used to validate the reporting checklist, disclosure mechanics, and fundamental accounting concept relations rules are provided on the summary document.  These rules have been implemented in two different software applications, XBRL Cloud which is commercially available software and Pesseract which is a working proof of concept used to test the feasibility of some ideas.

If I can find other publicly available information about these filings, then I will link to that information to this web page.

More information coming soon.
