Clipboard Manager

The Clipboard Manager is a powerful tool that can be used to solve a large number of tasks:

   Cut, copy and paste of existing tags (including undo) using the keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V.

   Backup and reuse tags from other documents, especially extensions.

   Re-assign backed up mappings that could not be restored.

   Restore mappings from another document type.

   Copy mappings between documents.

To get started, simply open the Clipboard Manager by either clicking on the Clipboard icon or by going to Tools → Mapping Clipboard:

All items that have been added to the clipboard so far, for example by using Ctrl+C, are listed here: Restore Tags

To restore tags from the clipboard, simply drag and drop the tag from the clipboard to the cell where the tag has to be restored.

If you want to restore a whole table or a group of cells, select all the cells you want to tag and click on Tag whole table on the upper right corner of the clipboard:

Click Yes to confirm and all selected cells will be tagged with only one click.

Please note that groups of cells can only be used on selections of the same size. For instance, it is not possible to select a group of four cells, copy the tags with Ctrl+C and paste them onto a selection of six cells. Remove Tags

To remove one or more selected tags from the list, click on the Remove selected icon:

To remove all tags, click on the Remove all button right next to it. Use External Files

With a click on Load existing mapping file, tags can also be loaded from external sources:

Possible external sources are:

   Files that have tags (.epub, .pdf, .word, .html)

   Backed up tags (.etm, .ixbak)

   Saved tagger clipboard files (.tcf)

This functionality enables the Tagger to re-use tags already created in different documents, which comes in handy if you want to re-use basic extensions. Simply create a base report or add all extensions to the clipboard and save the state to an external file. This feature also allows you to restore tags from other formats (for example .word to .epub).

Please, note that not every ESEF report can be opened in the Clipboard Manager. For instance, ESEF reports generated by the Tagger from PDF documents can't be opened in the Clipboard Manager. Use the PDF.mapping files instead. Also note that sometimes ESEF reports generated by third party tools can't be opened. Due to invalidity or unsupported report architectures it might happen that the Clipboard Manger is not able to import all the tags. In this case, please send the report to xbrl-support@amana.de and we will enable the import in the future. Save Tags

To save the current state of a tagger clipboard file (*.tcf), use the Save button: Use Taxonomy Extension Elements

You can also filter the list by taxonomy extension elements: Change of the Taxonomy Version

If you have already tagged a report and you want to tag your new report you can use the Mapping Clipboard to apply the tags and even update them to the new taxonomy. To do so, you just need to select the correct, new, taxonomy version when importing your new report. The pasted tags will be automatically updated, or you will receive an error message if you are using tags that are no longer up to date. Unresolved Mappings

If the structure of a report has been too heavily changed, there will be unresolved mappings. These unresolved mappings can be imported into the Clipboard Manager:

From there you can restore or delete them: Multiple Documents

The preferred method to copy mappings between two documents, be it a roll forward or transferring mappings from one language to another, is to use the Clipboard Manager. You can open two Taggers, one with a document that already contains the mappings and one with the new document, and use the Clipboard Manager to transfer the mappings, as shown in the image below.

Simply select and copy all mappings from a table in the source document, switch over to the same table in the target document, open the Clipboard Manager and click the "Tag whole table" button. All mappings, including calculations and all metadata, will be transferred. If the new table has additional rows, those will usually remain empty and the mappings will only be restored to the cells the Tagger recognizes.

If you copy mappings between reports that have different languages, labels or monetary formats, these might have to be adjusted. The Tagger helps during the copy-and-paste process; just make sure that the document settings of the target document are correct. If the Tagger detects that the target document has a different reporting language than the source document, the labels will be updated from the respective row and the formats will be updated with the default format from the document settings.
