Filing Reports and Report Entities

You can use a filing report in CDM to prepare and submit data to a regulatory authority according to their requirements.

Filing Reports

The filing package that is offered by the Filing Plug-in allows the creation of filing reports for released frameworks. For example, the EBA taxonomy versions 2.0, 2.1 and 2.2 are supported to create filing reports.

After a package is added, you can create filing reports according to the regulatory authority requirements that are supported by the package. The filing package also supports previous requirements. A filing package cannot be deleted if it is in use.

Important: You cannot use filing reports as narrative reports or within an XBRL project. Report cascade is not supported. If you select a filing report and cascade it, the new report is considered a regular report and not a filing report. Cascading does not preserve the filing properties of the filing report.

Reporting Entities

Reporting entities are used to identify the entity that is submitting the filing report, its end of fiscal year, and the regulatory authority that it is making a submission to. If the same entity needs to report to two or more regulatory authorities at the same time, give it a name that avoids confusion and error. For created reporting entities, the regulatory authority that is used determines the validation checks and generation that are used. Entity schemes and entity identifiers are used to correctly identify the reported facts in the XBRL instance. Also, the fiscal year end determines the list of applicable reference dates.

Important: When you define a reporting entity, you can choose from several entity schemes according to the regulatory authority requirements. You must insert a valid entity identifier according to the entity scheme that you choose. You can then choose an end of fiscal year for your entity.
