Very cool to see XBRL still alive and thriving, and excited in particular by the intersection with PowerPivot.

If you ever want to do a guest post on http://powerpivotpro.com, let me know. I'd be excited to host it.

Thanks]]>Nate AndersonThu, 25 Nov 2010 02:53:25 +0000http://xbrl.squarespace.com/journal/2010/11/1/model-sec-xbrl-filing.html#comments24118:165869:comment/10632688I can't understand the lingo yet (distinguishing Concepts, Members, Axis, Domains, Roll Ups, Elements, etc.) I hope to become conversational in XML, and then XBRL soon. But as it is I am tagging data for financial companies, and struggle with the same "document-centricity", the questions like whether we would prefer to drill down by Member or by concept (in deciding how to structure taxonomies), and that XBRL isn't leveraged to its fullest in its current state. Just wanted to show you support from an interested reader. Thanks!]]>paurlmaxWed, 24 Nov 2010 17:01:38 +0000http://xbrl.squarespace.com/journal/2010/8/14/seeing-two-new-metapatterns-variance-and-adjustment.html#comments24118:165869:comment/10629104Joe RybaWed, 17 Nov 2010 21:08:47 +0000http://xbrl.squarespace.com/journal/2010/11/16/gartner-the-21st-century-disclosure-initiative-will-repriori.html#comments24118:165869:comment/10573678bgbFri, 08 Oct 2010 05:52:18 +0000http://xbrl.squarespace.com/journal/2008/12/18/hello-world-xbrl-example.html#comments24118:165869:comment/10102594Jim RichardsThu, 02 Sep 2010 11:06:41 +0000http://xbrl.squarespace.com/journal/2010/8/14/seeing-two-new-metapatterns-variance-and-adjustment.html#comments24118:165869:comment/9584690
The variance pattern depends on whether you are comparing a budgeted income statement of a budget balance sheet but the analyses are for the same period - comparison for actual and budget for the same period (income statement) or instant (balance sheet). It is an example where a scenario element in a context would be used to distinguish between actual, budget and variance for the same concepts. Since dimensions cannot be used for scenario (I think I read that somewhere) then actual, budget and variance would be domain members or variance would be the domain and actual and budget would be the domain members. A little different from where a domain is usually the total and the domain members sum to the total.]]>RyanTue, 10 Aug 2010 21:25:38 +0000http://xbrl.squarespace.com/journal/2010/4/2/imagine-ipad-app-for-reading-financial-statements.html#comments24118:165869:comment/9311934AaronWed, 04 Aug 2010 02:04:16 +0000http://xbrl.squarespace.com/journal/2008/8/20/idea-interactive-data-electronic-applications.html#comments24118:165869:comment/9224982
