1 | In this initial XBRL release, tags are applied only to the following statements:
Therefore, please select the inputs below under :
The following statements are not tagged in this release:
|
2 | In this release, only the mandatory tagging items have been covered. Therefore, the 'Notes - List of Notes' (text tagging) have not been included, as they are not mandatory for validation. |
3 | Report elements with the display condition set to Show consol have been excluded from XBRL tagging, as they would generate validation errors at the company level. e.g. Material accounting policies information > Summary of material accounting policies; Deferred tax > Taxes. |
4 | To get validated successfully, users must enable E1 then select SeparateMember in Nature of financial statements in Filing information when they wish to produce a company XBRL instance, and enable both E1 and E2 then select ConsolidatedMember for a consolidated XBRL instance.
According to SSMxT, if you have selected SeparateMember (company) Financial Statements, then only the columns for separate will appear. However, if you select consolidated Financial Statements, then the MBRS templates will have columns for both Consolidated and Separate level. |
5 | Only the ssmt-fs-mfrs_2022-12-31_entry_point taxonomy has been imported in this template. Therefore please ensure to select MBRS_Preparation_Tool V2.2 as 'Name and version of software used to generate XBRL file' and SSMxT_2022v1.0 in Taxonomy version in Filing information. Otherwise users will not be able to import the XBRL instance in Mtool successfully. |
6 | Reconciliation row is not available in taxonomy tables in notes to the financial statements. |
7 | If users wish to use another taxonomy reference, please update the href and namespace accordingly through taxonomy references in the [FY] XBRL tab. |
8 | As taxonomy tags were added to the existing primary statements aligned with our model content, certain items could not be tagged because corresponding taxonomy elements were not available. |
9 | To be able to validate successfully, it is required to display 0 instead of "-" in standard/non-standard tables throughout the report. An attempt was made to change the table number format from #,#; (#,#);_(-_) to #,#; (#,#);_(0_) ; however, this approach was not successful for the Malaysia template. A backlog item has been created to investigate the reason for this change. Until the issue is resolved, the current workaround is to manually format the cells as #,#; (#,#);_(0_) . |
