XBRL GL WG Outreach Webcast “Amazing Accounts” Now Available
“Amazing Accounts” , an outreach session hosted on March 30, 2011 by the XBRL Global Ledger Working Group is now available as a webcast here.
Learn about one of the most foundational structures of XBRL GL – the account structure – and understand its reporting representational power that covers not only accounting but much, much more. You will learn:
- What can be represented with the account structure, and how
- Other structures that parallel and supplement the account structure
- How the account structure in XBRL GL uniquely supports cross-GAAP and cross-reporting reconciliation, reporting trees, and super-charges sub-ledger reporting concepts
You can also check the list of all the past webcasts hosted by the XBRL GL Working Group in the Webcasts page of the GaLaPaGoS – Global Ledger Practices Guide for Study website.
Implementing XBRL GL Webcast Now Available
The webcast of the latest XBRL GL Working Group outreach call “Implementing XBRL Global Ledger – Standardizing the Standardization Process” is now available for offline viewing in the webcasts page at the GaLaPaGoS website. You can also find the slides used in the presentation below.
XBRL Global Ledger Working Group Outreach: Implementing XBRL GL – Standardizing the Standardization Process
As I mentioned recently, the XBRL GL Working Group is promoting a discussion on a standardized, repeatable methodology for “deeply embedded” XBRL/XBRL GL implementations. As part of this effort we scheduled a webinar on February 3, 2011 at 21:00 UTC. Here is the announcement published in the XBRL-public Yahoo! Group. If you do not have access to that group but you are still interested in participating you can contact me.
XBRL GL WG Outreach Call: The New XBRL GL Public Draft – Webcast Now Available
The webcast of the December 10, 2009 XBRL GL Working Group outreach call is now available in GaLaPaGoS. Eric E. Cohen (PricewaterhouseCoopers), Toshimitsu Suzuki (Fujitsu) and myself introduce the new Public Working Draft of the XBRL GL taxonomy, the new architecture designed to cater for labels in multiple languages and the newly added Japanese labels.
A Last Call for Comments has now been issued for the Public Working Draft, and the comment period ends on January 31, 2010. The purpose of this webcast is to provide an overview of the new features for the benefit of reviewers. If you have time and interest please check the webcast and the documentation in the PWD and provide your feedback to the XBRL GL Working Group or to me directly.
XBRL GL PLDPRC
Yesterday during the monthly – well OK, it is not monthly, it is periodic - XBRL GL Working Group outreach call I gave a presentation on one of the next big things in the implementation of XBRL for internal use: XBRL GL Profiles for Labels, Documentation, Presentation, Rules and Constraints, aka XBRL GL PLDPRC.
XBRL GL PLDPRC is about leveraging XBRL GL as a generic, holistic standard while at the same time providing a standardized way to cater for local restrictions and usage conventions – in other words, about safely customizing XBRL GL without breaking its philosophy and its architectural design, two features that ensure its “fitness for the purpose.”
I am very excited about this effort, because I believe that it is important not only as a tool to make XBRL GL implementation simpler and easily customizable for specific requirements, but also to contribute to the more general discussion about profiles for XBRL as a whole. The initial reaction within the XBRL community has been very encouraging in this respect.
The webcast of the presentation will be available soon in GaLaPaGoS, and I will let you know when that happens. Meanwhile, the slides that I presented yesterday are posted below.
If you have an interest in this discussion and you feel you can contribute, please let the XBRL GL Working Group or myself know.
