BLOG: Digital Financial Reporting
This is a blog for information relating to digital financial reporting. This blog is basically my "lab notebook" for experimenting and learning about XBRL-based digital financial reporting. This is my brain storming platform. This is where I think out loud (i.e. publicly) about digital financial reporting. This information is for innovators and early adopters who are ushering in a new era of accounting, reporting, auditing, and analysis in a digital environment.
Much of the information contained in this blog is synthasized, summarized, condensed, better organized and articulated in my book XBRL for Dummies and in the chapters of Intelligent XBRL-based Digital Financial Reporting. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

Meta patterns: The Key to Making XBRL Easy to Use
Meta patterns are the key to making XBRL easier for business people. This is an updated explanation of what meta patterns are and how they make XBRL easier.
Recall that you can grab sample XBRL instances and XBRL taxonomies of the meta patterns I have created here.
The US GAAP Taxonomy has meta patterns. [Table]s, [Roll Forward]s, and a few others are explicitly identified. It has [Roll Up]s and [Hierarchy]s which are not explicitly itentified, but they do exist. Leveraging patterns like these is done all the time by information technology professionals. Soon, business reporting tools will leverage these meta patterns to make working with XBRL easier for business users.
