New Features for Working with XBRL in Excel in Altova Version 2020r2

BEVERLY, MA / AGILITYPR.NEWS / May 27, 2020 / Altova® announced the release of  Version 2020r2 of Altova MissionKit desktop developer tools, server software products, and regulatory solutions. This release features numerous additions to the company’s XBRL focused products including new ways to work with XBRL in Excel.


With the importance of accurate, standardized financial reporting enforced through XBRL filing mandates, having XBRL tools you can rely on is a must. Altova is continually updating and improving its XBRL tools to meet the growing challenges in this highly specialized area.


Altova offers several add-ins for Excel that make it easy for organizations to comply with regulations from the EBAEIOPA, and other regulatory bodies that mandate reporting in XBRL. These easy-to-use software products integrate directly into Excel so that users can create valid XBRL reports in an environment where they’re already comfortable working. The add-ins also support importing existing XBRL reports into Excel for easy readability and analysis.


The Altova European Banking Authority (EBA) XBRL Add-in for Excel and Altova Solvency II XBRL Add-in for Excel both support viewing and creating XBRL reports for the respective taxonomies using user-friendly templates in Excel.


New features in these products include:


  • Batch conversion of XBRL reports to Excel documents for easy analysis by business users
  • A new COM API that can be used to programmatically automate data entry, facilitate proper editing of the Excel/XBRL document, and automate the creation of EBA XBRL reports – all of which can increase efficiency and help to reduce data entry errors
  • Support for Deutsche Bundesbank (BBK) Taxonomy in the EBA XBRL Add-in for Excel, adding to existing support for numerous local taxonomies


These and additional features are available in Version 2020r2 of the Altova product line.
