Welcome to the IFRS-GPTaxonomyModulesManager developed by the IASC Foundation XBRL Team. Its purpose is to allow the user to easily create an XBRL
Schema or XBRL Instance file fitting individual requirements (e.g. selecting a language or modules of your choice).
If you have questions, remarks or feedback, contact us by sending an E-Mail to xbrl@iasb.org.uk.
Instructions
To start the IFRS-GP Taxonomy Modules Manager click on the "Start
creating document" button. If you have problems with the
IFRS Taxonomy Modules Manager check if you have activated JavaScript
in your browser.
Instructions:
Step 1.
Specify what type of starting point you wish to have created.
Select "Instance" when
you want to create an instance. Otherwise select
"Schema" if
you want to create a Schema. An instance is a file that
ends with ".xbrl" and captures reported facts.
A schema is a file which ends with ".xsd" and
describes the content of a report.
Step 2.
Specify a Namespace for your purpose.
Normally this namespace
should identify your company (e.g. "http://www.myCompany.com")
and must be an URI, which is a line of characters with
a special formatting. Good examples of URIs are the addresses
of a websites.
Step 3.
Specify the referencing to the IFRS-GP Taxonomy files.
Choose "Absolute" for the Schema or Instance
file to reference the IFRS-GP taxonomy on the web. Choose "Relative" if
you want to reference a copy of the IFRS-GP Taxonomy stored
locally, as opposed to accessing it from the internet.
The file created by the IFRS Taxonomy Modules Manager
must be saved in the same directory as the IFRS-GP Taxonomy.
Download the IFRS GP Taxonomy ZIP file here and
unpack it to your specified folder.
Step 4.
Specify your language(s) to include in Label Linkbase file(s).
If you choose a language other than the English one, you
have to separately download the selected label linkbase.
You can get it from the Translation
Status and Downloads page of the IASC Foundation
website or follow the provided link in step 4 while
creating the document. Save the Label Linkbase in the
same directory as the file created by the IFRS Taxonomy
Modules Manager.
Step 5.
Specify your required Linkbase Files by checking the checkboxes.
According to your reporting needs, place a check next to
the linkbase files required in your taxonomy or instance.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
After saving the created Schema file in the same folder
where all the IFRS taxonomy files are you need to import
the created Schema into the tool. Please note that you
should NOT OPEN the created
Schema but IMPORT it into the tool. Opening
the schema will result in the fact that you will be changing
the IFRS presentation, calculation and different that
English label linkbases instead of extending them. Importing
the schema into the tool solves this issue.
After saving the created Instance file in the same folder where all the needed IFRS
taxonomy files are, you can OPEN the Instance in the tool.
