The future start tag for all integrated reports?December 31st, 2011 by Stewart McKie - Executive Advisor
In my roundup of the XBRL news of 2011 (coming soon), I mention the Integrated Reporting (IR) movement, which has been discussed in this blog over the years. The IR’s discussion document Towards Integrated Reporting: Communicating Value in the 21st Century is well worth a read and also some thought in response to the questions it helpfully poses within the text. But what interests me more is their new logo <IR>, which looks to me like an XBRL tag – something that we should not regard as a coincidence.

Jordan Woodard comments on the success of XBRL23 (the 23rd XBRL International Conference), the status of current XBRL initiatives from around the world, and the future of XBRL & data standardization. The 23rd XBRL International (XII) Conference was held a few weeks back in beautiful Montreal, Canada and the talk of the town was the new and existing XBRL global initiatives. This was my first XII Conference and I was joined by familiar faces from the SEC, FASB, the Big 4, and a number of new faces from around the Globe.

Charlie Hymer, CPA – Regional Sales Director, reminisces about the old days of financial reporting and how XBRL will forever change its future. The financial reporting industry has changed drastically over the last 20 years. Not to date myself, but oh well, here goes. I remember when I first started out at Arthur Andersen we didn’t have computers. We used columnar paper and had to continually tape more paper on the end of the spreadsheets to add more columns if the paper wasn’t long enough. To make a change was completely manual—erasing, re-adding, and hoping that everything flowed through properly. In 1989 we got computers to go out in the field. They looked like huge suitcases and we newbies always had to carry them because they were so heavy. We used Lotus 123 and thought that it couldn’t get any better than that. Then a little company called Microsoft gave us Excel and Word.
