XBRL calculation linkbase validator

This service allows XBRL instance documents to have their content validated against a calculation linkbase to show whether calculations are correct.

The zip file should contain a set of taxonomy files (including a calculation linkbase) and an instance document. Extension taxonomies may be included as well with their corresponding linkbases.

An example zip file is provided here . It includes three instance documents, one of which passes all calculations correctly, and two of which show error detection within calculations. For more information about the example files click here .

Information about XBRL including specifications may be found at xbrl.org . DecisionSoft also offer white papers on XBRL implementation.
