Projects

A project is a framework for holding the data and metadata that refers to an XBRL instance document. You can use CDM XBRL to manage a project.

A project is a container that is used to store the tags that make up an instance document. Before you can perform tagging in XBRL, you must first create a project. When you create the project, you associate it with a taxonomy and a report. After the project is created, you then associate aspects with it (time periods, units and measures, and entity identifiers).

A project is associated with one report. A report can be associated with multiple projects so that you can produce multiple instance documents from one report.

You can enable a project for inline XBRL generation and query tagging.

• You can enable your project for inline XBRL to embed XBRL instance data and metadata (using XML elements) into an HTML or XHTML document. This allows you to see a visual representation of the XBRL instance document while also allowing for the necessary information in it to be extracted upon submission.
• You can enable your project for query tagging to allow users to create query tags against a relational query.
