Open Source tool reading ESEF & iXBRL

easyREADER imports ESEF iXBRL reports (.zip .xbri .xhtml .html .htm format) and present the facts in an Excel sheet. In an extended taxonomy (as usual in ESEF), Statements/Linkbases are also presented on additional Excel sheets, as user help. easyREADER is an stand-alone executable Excel binary workbook (file type .xslb) with about four thousand lines of Open Source VBA code (Excel macros). easyINSTANCE is a lite version (two thousand lines of code) to minimize tasks on security certification of source code, at the cost of present only the facts, but not the Statements/Linkbases.

easyREADER and easyINSTANCE are Open Source subsets of easyQC (Quality Control), Review and Consumption Software Certified, XBRL International

Open Source tool mapping from ESEF reports to ERICA format

This mapping Excel tool (using easyREADER) has been created to harmonize and make possible the comparison of the publicly available financial statements of European non-financial listed groups in ESEF format, using to that aim ERICA, a standard European common format. It includes mapping decisions (from ESEF XBRL tags to the ERICA format) derived from the experience of the use of consolidated accounts by members of the ERICA WG. The ERICA format (European Records of IFRS Consolidated Accounts) is managed by the ERICA WG of the European Committee of Central Balance Sheet Data Offices (ECCBSO). The lite mapping Excel tool (using easyINSTANCE) minimizes tasks on security certification.

This project started on July 5th 2021, with a public call in the event ESEF mapping challenge. The go live was December 7th 2021 at Extending ESEF opportunities
