Nested Tags

Disclosure Management supports any level of nested tags where a data value can be tagged within another tag. Nested tags are useful when you need to tag items that need to appear several times in the instance document. For example, a fractional value may be tagged within text block, which itself has to be tagged separately within a text tag. In this case the fractional value is displayed twice in the document. In one instance the fractional value is included in the text block, and then again as a numeric value.

Disclosure Management handles nested tags based on which items are mapped and where the mapping occurs:

  • When a tag is created (a concept is mapped to a section of the document), the new tag has no default context or unit.

  • If a new tag is created using the "Quick Mapping" functionality, then the tag is created with the specified context or unit from the Quick Mapping user interface.

  • When a section of a document is highlighted and associated with a context or unit for mapping, Disclosure Management identifies all "top-level" tags. A top-level tag refers to a tag that is not nested within another tag.

  • When a top-level tag is within a highlighted range, Disclosure Management maps it to the context or unit. The mapping occurs whether or not a context or unit have already been mapped. Any existing context or unit mappings are overridden.

  • Top-level tags that either begin or end outside the highlighted range are ignored and no mappings occur.
