Interactive Data - Building XBRL into Accounting Information Systems

The Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA) recently published a research study on Interactive Data - Building XBRL into Accounting Information Systems. The study explores the implementation and business process implications of tagging XBRL at different levels in an organization’s information infrastructure. It explains in non-technical terms what XBRL is, the growing usage of XBRL, how it is being applied, for what purposes and the business case for adopting XBRL.
