  6. Validate for final approval.

Add a Filing Report

Filing reports in CDM are standalone reports that offer the support that is needed to submit to a particular regulatory authority. An XBRL project is not needed.

Filing reports are added through Administration > Reports and have a distinctive icon that differentiates them from narrative reports and regular XBRL projects. Filing reports are located in report groups and can be grouped with narrative reports.

To add a filing report:

  1. Click the Home tab, then in the Navigation Pane, click Administration.
  2. Double-click Reports.
  3. In the table, right-click the report group, click Report, and select Filing Report.
  4. On the Submission Setup tab, enter the following information:
    • Name - Type a name that is easily identified where it is used.
    • Reporting Entity - Select from the list to determine the regulatory authority, the entity scheme or identifier, and the fiscal year end of the entity that is submitting the report.
    • Framework Release - Select from the list to determine the framework release, for example, a particular version of the European Banking Authority.
    • Report Type - Select from the list of report types that are requested by the regulatory authority, based on the data from the filing package. The report type determines the suitable taxonomy entry point for this type of report based on the data from the filing package.
    • Frequency - Select from the list of frequencies that are applicable to the selected report type as requested by the regulatory authority, based on data from the filing package. If more than one frequency is applicable, you can manage all frequencies in a single filing report.
    • Reference Date - Select the reference date of the report that is being added from a list of reference dates that are applicable, based on the fiscal year end of the reporting entity and the filing report type.
    • Start Date - The start date is based on the selected reference date.
  5. Click Next.
  6. On the Report Details tab, enter the following information:
    • Currency - The currency of the facts that are being reported.
    • Due Date - The target date to complete the preparation of the filing report. Select a date that is on or before the remittance date enforced by the regulatory authority for the prepared report.
    • Default Report Accuracy - If you want to report facts that are exact (implying INF as the XBRL decimal attribute for the reported facts), select Exact. To report facts that are within the limits that are enforced by the regulatory authority, select Custom.
  7. Click Next.
  8. Optionally, on the Select Forms tab, select the forms according to the regulatory authority requirements that are applicable for the selected frequency and respecting the rules in effect for the selected reference date. This step is optional because the list of forms to be reported can be updated at any time from within the filing report.
  9. Click Finish.

Add a Reporting Entity

Reporting entities in CDM 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.

To add a reporting entity:

  1. Click the Home tab, then in the Navigation Pane, click Administration.
  2. Click Filing > Reporting Entities.
  3. Click Add> Reporting Entity.
  4. Enter the following information:
    • Name - User-defined descriptive name where the entity is used.
    • Description - User-defined.
    • Regulatory Authority - Select from the list.
    • Entity Scheme - Select from the list.
    • Entity Identifier - User-defined. It must be in the form of a regular expression.
    • Fiscal Year End - As required by the regulatory authority.
  5. Click OK to complete.

Add a Form

Forms that are included in a filing report in CDM are considered intended to be reported, regardless of the existence of data being added into the form.

When you open a filing report, you can add or delete forms at any time. In effect, for EBA reporting, the filing indicator is set to True for all templates mapped by the forms that are in the filing report. You can delete forms that are not intended to be reported.

If you do not want to delete a form but you do not want it to be reported, you can specify it as Not Printable. When a form is set as Not Printable and contains data, the generated instance does not include any data from the form and no validation is performed for the report. You can also delete forms that are not intended to be reported.

Some forms, called breakdown forms, can be added in multiple contexts. You can select breakdown forms in the Add Form wizard.

To add a form:

  1. Open the filing report that you want to work with.
  2. In the Reports work area, right-click the name of the report, then select Add Child > Add Forms.
  3. Select the forms you need to add and click OK.
