INTRODUCING
XML
AUTHORITY.

XML Authority is an XML program used to produce reports in XML format using schemas (XSDs) as is typically used for submission to regulatory authorities. XML Authority contains an ever-growing schema library where common reporting schemas are packaged, categorised and maintained.

If the schema required is not in the library, its addition can be requested or users can load their own. Here is a selection of some of the reporting schemas in the Library:

XML Reporting Made Easy.

Easily understand what you are required to report with XML Authority’s intuitive presentation of an XML schema as a set of forms and tables. Guidance embedded in the schema is available through tool tips and mandatory fields are highlighted.

One Application For All Your XBRL Reporting Needs

One application for all your XML reporting needs.

Save time and money by using XML Authority for all your XML reporting needs rather than purchasing and implementing specialised tools for each individual XML reporting requirement. All users have access to the Schema Library. Users can even load their own schema.

Real-time validation.

Be instantly aware of any data issues that could cause the rejection of a submission. Find and resolve issues easily with the expandable and interactive validation panel.

Automated Linking to Data in Excel

Automated linking to data in Excel.

Save time by automating the population of XML Authority documents using data in Excel. Create import templates into which data can be inserted for re-importing into XML Authority.

Link directly to data in relational databases.

Data stored in relational databases can be imported directly into XML Authority. XML Authority can even generate database scripts which can be used to create a set of related tables conforming to the requirements of the XML schema.

Hide XML Schema Complexity with XML Authority's Schema Masking Functionality

Hide unnecessary complexity.

XML Authority contains schema masking functionality to enable the user to simplify the schema presentation and required data. Non-mandatory elements and choice items can be removed to more closely resemble the data you may wish to report.

XML AUTHORITY TRAINING
