Update Arelle Version & DQC Rules
Updated Arelle version 2.37.0 to include support for US GAAP 2025 and ESMA ESEF 2024 Taxonomy.
Add Support for SASB Taxonomy (Limited Support – No Extensibility)
You can now utilize the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Taxonomy in CDM to import, tag, and generate taxonomy, enabling the development and dissemination of sustainability accounting standards that help public corporations disclose material, and decision-useful information to investors.
Support for Oracle EPM Financial Consolidation and Close (FCCS)
Oracle EPM FCCS connections will offer direct data connectivity using secure APIs and retrieve real-time financial consolidation data for use in disclosures and reports.
CDM users with appropriate permissions will now be able to create an Oracle EPM data source by choosing to add a new OLAP Data Source, and afterwards to build data queries against this new connection and insert the data into their report objects.
To be able to create a data query against an Oracle EPM data source, a Metadata export job must exist in Oracle EPM FCCS and be referenced in the metadataExportJobName attribute under the EPMConfiguration key in the CDM.config file. The key is configured by default with the following job name: CDM_Metadata_Export.
AI Doc Assist Icon Update
You can now use two distinct icons to toggle the opening/closing of the AI Doc Assist chat bot.
Support URL Update
CDM Support email option has been removed. The support link has been updated with the Central Support URL for quicker access to help.
