| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Label | Identifies the human-readable name for the concept. |
| Name | Identifies the unique name of a concept in a taxonomy. Each concept has a standard name that equates to the concept name and is unique in the taxonomy. |
| Data Type | Identifies the expected data format that can be associated with the concept (such as numeric or string). |
| Abstract | Identifies concepts that are used in a hierarchy to group related elements together. An abstract concept cannot be used to map data in a report or document. |
| Period Type | An attribute of a concept that shows whether the concept is reported in an instant or duration time period. The period type of the concept must match the period type definition in a context. For example, a context that is defined as an “instant” cannot be associated with a taxonomy concept whose period type is “duration”. |
| Balance | Identifies the weight value assigned to a numeric item type when calculations are performed. Values include: debit, credit, or neither. |
| Tuple“company address” | Facts containing multiple values and identified by a single XML concept holding nested items. A tuple member by itself may not provide enough relevant information; however, a group of tuple members provides the information needed. For example, the tuple concept “company address” may consist of the following tuple members: “Name”, “Street”, “City”, “State”, “Postal Code,” and “Country”. A single tuple member by itself (such as “City”), is not sufficient to describe the concept “company address”. Only when all tuple members are provided does the concept become meaningful. The Disclosure Management Mapping Tool provides a “tuple view” under the Concept tab that shows all existing tuples defined within a taxonomy. See About Tuples. |
| Substitution Group | An XSD (XML schema) entity that enables the implementation of a multiple inheritance structure. For the basic XBRL specification, the substitution groups elements are defined as “item” and “tuple”. For dimensionality, two additional substitution groups are defined in the XBRL standard: “hypercubeItem” and “dimensionItem”. |
| Documentation | Identifies any specific authoritative citations used to provide further documentation about the concept. |
