Selecting XBRL contexts
Use the Select XBRL Contexts to Import page of the wizard to select an XBRL context type and individual contexts.
The XBRL data imported to an Analytics table must all be associated with the same context type (instant, period, or forever). Importing multiple context types into a single Analytics table is not supported.
Note
If you are working with a complex XBRL file you may need to, or may find it easier to, define more than one Analytics table for the various contexts in the file, and then define relations between the tables using the Relate Tables command.
To select XBRL contexts:
- Select the Context Type you
want to add to the Analytics table.
All contexts in the XBRL file with a matching context type are displayed in the Available Contexts pane.
- Select one or more contexts in the Available
Contexts pane and click the right arrow button to move
them to the Selected Contexts pane.
You can also click Add All to add all available contexts. When you add one or more contexts to the Selected Contexts pane, the Import Size panel displays the number of individual records that will be imported to the Analytics table.
When you select an individual context in either pane, the Context Properties area displays entity and period information. You can click View Scenario if any scenario information is associated with the context.
- When you have added all the contexts required for the Analytics table, click Next.
