To save a project, at least one taxonomy must be added to the project. |
Fact collections
In the tab fact collections data is summarized. The organization of the fact collection is hierarchical, similar to a directory structure in a file system.The values of the positions of a an XBRL taxonomy are called facts. The term “fact” is used in different reporting tools in the ReportFactory when it comes to the generation of position values. A collection of facts is used for a user-defined subdivision of the generated project facts to the positions of a XBRL taxonomy.
The subdivision of facts can be useful to display only a certain part of the facts in the reports.
To create a collection of facts, the buttons "Add Top-Level" and “Add Child" can be used. "Add Top-Level" creates a new collection of facts, which is not a subdivision of an existing collection of facts. "Add Child" creates a collection of facts under the currently selected collection of facts. By clicking "Remove" an existing collection of facts can be removed
| Note |
|---|
Please check before removing a collection of facts, whether account balances or forms were created for this fact collection! If they exist, they must be deleted first, after that the collection of facts can be removed. |
The subdivision of the facts in several collections of facts has no predetermined meaning. It is not a prerequisite for creating a XBRL filing. As a result all the facts can be created in a single collection of facts (without subdivision).In the application, these facts are organized in fact collections.

Clients
In a report project company reports for multiple clients can be created. A XBRL filing is created for each client. Thus, from From the perspective of reporting, the term “client” client is an essential criterion for the selection of facts used to create a XBRL filing .
The clients can be sorted hierarchically by pressing “add top-level” or “add child”.
If a client is created under a parent client, then the parent client can be choosen in the project configuration in tab “ledgers” or “forms” to create a balance list or a form exactly for this client and all clients below.
The structuring of clients may for example be used to define a subset of clients in the project account assignments for a standard chart of accounts and to create different mappings for other clients.
