Digital data standards
With True North, you can capture and publish your reporting requirements as a digital data standard. This is in the form of an XBRL taxonomy which captures all the data definitions, validation, business rules and external references in a single, computer readable package.
Taxonomies are written directly using a taxonomy editor or the data model can be expressed as tables in Excel, marked up and used to generate a taxonomy. The platform’s taxonomy management provides audit, rollback of changes and release workflow. Documentation, samples, databases and other artefacts that are helpful to users can be generated automatically.
Once you have created a taxonomy, you can publish it for collaborative taxonomy review to allow public and private consultation on changes. Our professional services consultants are experts in taxonomy architecture and authoring and can provide as much help as is required to complete and publish your digital standard.
