XBRL-based structured digital financial reporting - Blog: Digital Financial Reporting (using XBRL)

There is a method to my madness. As you might know from previous posts I am into systems theory and lean six sigma. If you want to understand how I created my framework (i.e. analysis, synthesis, models, patterns) and method (i.e. systems theory, systems paradigm) I would encourage you to watch these excellent videos:

Systems theory: A system is a cohesive conglomeration of interrelated and interdependent parts that is either natural or man-made.
Systems thinking:
Systems paradigm: A paradigm is a model, perspective, or set of ideas that form a worldview underlying the theory and methodology of a particular domain.
Patterns: A pattern is a systematic regularity in the world. A pattern is any form of correlation between the states of elements within a system. Patterns are structural prescriptions to which model artifacts are meant to conform.
Pattern formation:
Graph theory (Network theory):
Synthesis and Analysis:
Synthesis:
Formal models: A model is an abstract, typically compact representation of some phenomenon.
Logic: Thinking according to a set of consistent and coherence rules.
Chain of reasoning:
Process thinking:
Stocks and flows: (From a different channel)

Much more can be found at this YouTube channel, Systems Innovation. I highly recommend it. In fact, this playlist, Systems Theory Course, appears to be an excellent introduction.

I am not making this stuff up. What I am seeing is the synergy offered by artificial intelligence, structured information like XBRL, digital distributed ledgers, and Lean Six Sigma principles, philosophies, and techniques. It is this "match made in heaven" that will enable effective automation of accounting, reporting, auditing, and analysis tasks and processes.

You might want to dust off that Lean Six Sigma Black Belt certification.
