What are auditors finding in Washington and other states? XBRL Extensible Business Reporting Language It is estimated that auditors and analysts spend up to one third of their time on the inputting and validating of financial data rather than actually analyzing it. eXtensible Business Reporting Language, or XBRL, is the cutting-edge technology for the transfer of financial data. XBRL provides for the rapid and accurate transfer of data that, upon transfer, is automatically validated. The automatic validation of XBRL eliminates errors due to re-keying or faulty data links. This new technology is currently used by the Security and Exchange Commission and is in use internationally. This class will cover not only what XBRL is, but will discuss its design, its different taxonomies and its unique characteristics. In addition, there will be discussion on where XBRL is currently and its future. Finally, the class will look at the enormous potential this new technology provides to both auditors and analysts.
