Validating a document

In toolsxbrl you can validate tagged contents in two different ways.

Quick access via the menu ribbon or the status bar

When working with toolsxbrl, you can access the “Validate Document” function at any time. This checks the XBRL taxonomy contents that you entered in the document manager for their structural validity.



Alternatively, you can use the “Status” function in the status bar to start the validation function.

Good to know

toolsxbrl cannot check the contents to see if the XBRL taxonomy contents were used correctly.


Validating contents when creating iXBRL files

When you create your XBRL-compliant presentation files in iXBRL format, you can have the validity of the taxonomies that you saved checked at the same time. In the “XBRL” menu, click on “Generate iXBRL”.

Once you have configured your iXBRL file, you can click on “Generate and Validate iXBRL”.

Good to know

The validation is performed provided you have not selected the “Skip Validation” setting.


You then see a detailed overview of possible validation errors. These are displayed categorised according to their severity as a “Warning” or “Error”.

When applying the validation process when creating the XBRL files

Error/warning Description Solution

It was determined that the report may need a taxonomy extension. Configure the correct document setting.
All other types in Report generation folder

An error occurred when the XBRL report files were created. If the validation can run via the quick access without any errors, please contact firesys.
XBRL Instance Dimension Specification

An invalid output file was created/found. If the validation can run via the quick access without any errors, please contact firesys.
Filing Rules Validation

It is assumed that the approval regulations set out by the supervisory authorities were not complied with. Ensure that the corresponding taxonomies and configurations were selected (such as ESMA for ESEF).
XBRL Instance Specification 2.1

The converted XBRL file is invalid. You can ignore these warnings if they refer to errors in calculation relationships for example. If in doubt, please contact firesys.
XBRL Taxonomy Specification 2.1

The extension taxonomy is invalid. Please contact firesys.
XBRL Instance Formula 1.0

Presumably, not all rules from the taxonomy were met. You may be able to ignore these warnings if you can create documents without any problems. However, it is recommended that you correct errors (where possible). If in doubt, please contact firesys.
