How do I start putting XBRL to use in my organisation?
The first step is normally to contact your local XBRL organisation or “jurisdiction” — contact information is under XBRL Around the World. Programmes for the use of XBRL are already under way in many countries and you will find information on most of these under Projects in the XBRL in Action section or jurisdiction websites. These programmes will usually provide technical support or guidance for those taking part. We do not provide a single “starter pack” for implementing XBRL because uses and circumstances vary greatly around the world, but plenty of support is available for adopters. If you cannot get local help, please contact info@xbrl.org. XBRL also runs open discussion groups where non-members can ask for specific help: see the Discussion Groups page. Members can gain support from a range of internal groups.
