Introduction
The Altova European Single Electronic Format (ESEF) XBRL Add-in for Excel (or ESEF Add-in for short) enables your organization to prepare annual financial reports that conform to the ESEF reporting format.
The ESEF Add-in allows you to do the following:
•Enter report data, using a flexible report layout
•Validate report data directly in Excel to ensure the data conforms to the XBRL taxonomy
•Export report data from Excel to iXBRL format
The ESEF Add-in supports the ESEF XBRL Taxonomy that is based on the IFRS taxonomy. The ESEF Add-in supports the ESEF taxonomy from Version 2017 onwards. The list of supported XBRL taxonomies is periodically updated to include the latest versions, independently of Altova add-in releases. To view, install, upgrade, and uninstall ESEF taxonomy versions, use the XBRL Taxonomy Manager included in the add-in. For more information about the ESEF format, see European Single Electronic Format. For information about ESEF reporting guidelines, see the ESEF Reporting Manual.
