Data validation during export

During export, data is automatically validated. Any errors, inconsistencies and warnings are reported in the Validation Report. For more information, see Data Validation.

 

Cell values that do not conform to the data type of the underlying XBRL concept prevent the report from being exported. For tips on how to avoid data formatting errors, see Data Entry. Note, however, that not all XBRL validation errors might be related to incorrect formatting. Some errors might occur because entered data does not meet the XBRL validation rules for the report you are filing.
