New website, Try XBRL



Posted by: viip
Fellowship, Inherent Quality, Software Quality

Here is another example of fellowship, the global efforts of a consortium, such as one related to XBRL, an internationally recognized standard for electronic business and financial reporting. This April 3, 2008 Zorba.ca post says the new website by RR Donnelley and Edgar Online provides complimentary access to over 12000 US filers, and is definitely worth some time browsing and testing. If you Try XBRL feel free to write a related comment or post; thank you for doing so.

I reviewed the site and white papers without registering. I can see this being a huge improvement in financial data integrity. The IT department shouldn’t be affected unless it is slated to develop company applications to manage XBRL reporting. It could be a scary prospect for computer-shy folks, but converting to the XBRL standard can increase competitiveness in the future. The more companies that report in this format, the easier data analysis should become.
