FOREWORD

The SAP® Disclosure Management, starter kit for U.S. GAAP (U.S. Generally Accepted

Accounting Principles) delivers business logic for the “last mile of finance” on top of a collaborative,

flexible disclosure solution using both product and business best practices. This pre-configuration

assists you in setting up your application in order to publish financial / non-financial regulatory

statements and notes as well as to file the corresponding data in XBRL (eXtensible Business

Reporting Language) format.

The starter kit is based on the U.S. GAAP taxonomy as published January 31, 2012 by the FASB

(Financial Accounting Standards Board), adopted and supported by U.S. SEC (United States

Securities and Exchange Commission) effective March 26, 2012. It includes predefined financial

statements designed according regulation S-X in order to address U.S. SEC requirements for

Domestic Private Issuers through a pre-built 10-Q form template compliant with the EFM

(EDGAR® Filer Manual) rules and the US GAAP Taxonomy 2012 Guide. SAP® Disclosure

Management, starter kit for U.S. GAAP has been designed to maximize your time-to-value when

used in combination with transactional and consolidation systems, in particular SAP® Planning and

Consolidation and SAP® Financial Consolidation applications.

The Configuration Overview document firstly explains the principles of SAP Disclosure

Management, starter kit for U.S. GAAP data repository. Secondly, the quarterly financial report

sample and the content related to the SEC 10-Q form are described. Lastly, this document

presents the structure of the starter kit U.S. GAAP-based taxonomy.

FUNCTIONAL ARCHITECTURE

Introducing the data repository

The SAP Disclosure Management, starter kit for U.S. GAAP includes a Microsoft Excel-based data

repository, also referred to as data cache, which is the cornerstone of your disclosure management

application. It is organized in a way that allows you to clearly define and identify the source data in the

reporting application. It also highlights how this data is prepared and linked to the financial report on the one

hand, and tagged against the U.S. GAAP-based taxonomy. This data repository can be easily adapted to

meet your specific filing requirements for instance inserting new rows and columns, copying existing cells,

copying formulas to extract, control the data or applying one of the starter kit pre-defined cell format.

Distinct Configuration principles

Disclosure Management repository can be configured according to different principles. You therefore start

your SAP Disclosure Management reporting from the configuration principle that corresponds to your

requirements the most.

Explaining the configuration principles

Integrated vs. Bolt-on

According to the “Integrated” principle, the data repository is populated by directly extracting the reporting

data from the source reporting system. To do so, the Microsoft Excel-based data retrieval methods for the

underlying reporting application are leveraged: cell-based formulas or report definition.

For example, SAP® Financial Consolidation data is extracted directly into the data repository by using the

CtGetData() cell-based formula of SAP Financial Consolidation add-in for Excel.

In the “Bolt-on” approach, the data from the data repository is fetched from existing Excel-based reports

extracted from or built for the underlying reporting application. It is recommended that the users put in a

single report bundle all their financial statements and notes for one period.

For example, financial reports designed for SAP® Planning and Consolidation application via the SAP® EPM

add-in for Excel can be manually or automatically refreshed and stored in a Microsoft Windows file directory.

They can then be used as data source for populating the SAP Disclosure Management data repository.

Unified vs. Separate

The “Unified” approach consists of putting together all financial worksheets inside one workbook of the data

repository designed for populating both the reports and the XBRL tagging.

Conversely in the “Separate” approach, worksheets used to prepare data for reports are kept distinct from

one another.


6

Link with SAP Planning and Consolidation and SAP Financial Consolidation

As per the “Integrated” configuration principle, the data repository workbook leverages the appropriate

functionality to fetch the data from your reporting system.

However should you have other reporting software, these templates can be easily adapted to the

corresponding data extraction function for Microsoft Excel, if any.

Configuration Principles applied for sample reporting Q3 2012

The SAP Disclosure Management starter kit is delivered with a sample reporting period which illustrates how

data is distributed from SAP® Planning and Configuration or any back-end system supporting Excel output

format.

Configuration Sample reporting period

Integrated / Bolt-on Unified / Separate For SAP Planning and Consolidation / For SAP Financial Consolidation

Q3 2012 Bolt-on Unified YES

During your Disclosure Management implementation project, you can make the most of either sample

reporting period as a starting point for your configuration depending on how the reporting team and workflow

is organized: for example, availability and publication of financial reports, access authorizations by report

section, workflow for updating the data repository and performing XBRL-related tasks.

As part of this implementation, you may even want to create a new combination that matches your

requirements at best from the pre-delivered templates, for example “Integrated” and “Separate”.

Data Workflow

The workbook delivered as part of the SAP Disclosure Management starter kit data repository for the Third

Quarter 2012 sample period is configured for extracting the reporting data from Microsoft Excel-based

reports located in a shared directory. This corresponds for instance to the use case when SAP Planning and

Consolidation reports are being automatically refreshed and published to a network folder by using the SAP

Disclosure Management Distribution feature.

For Q3 2012, 3 financial reports are managed based on the same data in the repository:

1) Quarterly Report in Word format

2) Form 10-Q in Word format

3) Form 10-Q in XBRL format

This organization of reports especially is relevant for granting different access rights to users depending on

whether they should work on report data or XBRL tagging. Moreover, it supports 0 to several XBRL reports

for the same period.

Configuration of the data repository

Settings

In the first worksheet, settings related to the source reporting data are exposed to you on the one hand, and

notably the following:

The scale factor to be applied to the source amounts (see Error! Reference source not found. Error! Reference source not found.);

The period end date, the currency and the currency rate to configure the headers of all financial statements

Note regarding data retrieval formula and settings:

The settings and formula of SAP Disclosure Management starter kit for U.S. GAAP are defined so it is

possible to extract data from the source Excel workbook (SAP Financial Consolidation or SAP Planning and

Consolidation). Should this template be used with another source system, the settings can be adapted easily

while keeping them based on the same principle for extracting data from a reporting database or other

workbooks.

Controls

The first worksheet also provides you with a table of contents of the financial statements and notes.

Formulas are used to retrieve the number of errors in the statements and hyperlinks have been inserted to

directly switch to the report you have selected.

The control column gives you a snapshot of the number of rollup inconsistencies raised by visual controls

defined in the reports, notably those due to rounding issues.


9

Adjustments

Data Retrieval Formula

The data retrieval formulas include mechanism for fetching the source reporting data (Excel links or Excel

add-in formula) and:

rounding source amounts to the configured scale

By default, the amounts filed in the reports are in thousands of U.S. Dollars.

reversing the sign of the source amount

Some amounts may have a negated sign in the source system compared to the expected sign in the final reports (e.g. expenses, treasury shares). For this reason a specific column exposes the multiplying factor to be applied to the source amount to reverse the sign in this case (column header = “N” equals to 1 or -1).

multiplying source amounts in the case they are originally expressed in thousands or in million for example.

According to the EDGAR Filer Manual (see EFM 6.6.34), you should not define or use units that imply a scale factor on a currency. If amounts are expressed in thousands or in million in the source reporting application, they should be multiplied accordingly to turn them into amounts in simple unit without factor in the instance file. Thus the retrieval formula finally takes into account the scale factor defined in the Settings section.

Formatting

Microsoft Excel cell styles have not been leveraged in order to streamline the layout applied to cells of

different content: statement title, base-level account description, total account description, control formula for

example. As a result, you can update the cells layout consistently throughout the workbook by range of cells.

Conditional formatting of cells has been implemented in order to highlight all rounded amounts in the report.

Content Refresh

The SAP Disclosure Management, starter kit for U.S. GAAP showcases best practices for configuring data

sources, especially you should be able to refresh all cache data in one click. You can either open the

Financial Statements main workbook and click the Refresh button from the Disclosure Management add-in,

or click the Content Refresh tab of the report from the Web interface and click the Start refresh button.

In addition to the main financial workbook, other Microsoft Excel chapters can be provided to populate

additional or industrial specific data in the reports (e.g. Key Figures to illustrate charts in the sample annual

report…)

These files can be stored out of the SAP Disclosure Management application, for instance on a shared

directory, and uploaded in the data repository.


10

REPORTS

Financial Report

SAP Disclosure Management, starter kit for U.S. GAAP, includes a quarterly financial sample report. This

report can be used as an illustrative reference for implementing and configuring your own financial reports

given the way it leverages a large number of SAP Disclosure Management features while remaining simple

and generic.

Building your own application by creating a period and reports from your existing documents and applying

customization materials and enhancements from the starter kit is much quicker and easier than designing all

the necessary configuration building blocks from scratch.

Report content

Report structure

The quarterly report includes a basic financial report structure in order to illustrate Disclosure Management

features and best practices. You can reuse chapters, default cover page and templates for your future

reports, automatically update the content and layout of the pre-defined table of contents via the usual

Microsoft Word capabilities in terms of automation and styles.

At the end of your reporting, you can make the most of the SAP Disclosure Management import features and

load all the structure of your financial report in one go via a text file, or you can copy existing reports to new


11

reports or preferably use the Roll Forward button in the Settings / Period interface. So the default starter kit

period is an interesting source of inspiration for implementing Disclosure Management projects.

Content of tables: Briefing Books and Data providers

Data providers are used to fetch data from the data repository. They correspond to worksheets or a selection

of cells from workbooks, also called the Briefing Books. SAP Disclosure Management starter kit for U.S.

GAAP is delivered with a set of predefined data providers which allow you to fetch and format relevant data

organized in tables for the reports.

All Data providers configured in the starter kit for U.S. GAAP are ER tables based on Excel range names. It

is recommended to use ER tables in order to reference data independently from the layout of the Briefing

Books, so the fetched data keep consistent when adding or removing rows or columns.

In addition, an important best practice consists of numerating the Dataproviders in order to insure that the BD

data worksheets in the destination Excel report are correctly ordered so the Excel links inside the destination

workbook keep consistent.

The naming convention for ER tables is:

ER_KEYS_(order number)(name of the table)

ER_LABELS_(order number)(name of the table)

On the other hand, the name of values columns should be as short as possible and not include any order to

support insertion or removal of columns:

ER_VALUES_(order number)(name of the table)_(column code)

Each predefined data provider is associated with a formatting table template defined in the

BIP_WordTableDef.doc file (see

The naming convention of the templates is:

(Report Code)(Formatting Version)_(Table Layout)

Report Layout below ).

The naming convention for the templates is:

(Report Code)(Formatting Version)_(Table Layout)


12

When associating a table template to a Data provider, you can configure the rendering of each line items

with a formatting code (for example, Default leaf-level or total-level formatting styles provided with the starter

kit).


13

The naming convention of the templates is: (Report Code)(Formatting Version)_(Table Layout)

Report Layout

Table Formatting Templates

Applying normalized formats to tables requires designing and implementing a specific Microsoft Word-type file. Such a file is delivered by the starter kit and configured to be shared by all the document writers. This file includes various formatting templates depending on the table type: financial statement over two periods, financial statement over two periods including the reference to notes, statement of changes in equity and others. The text formats of the different table components are streamlined by leveraging the Microsoft Word styles (headers, labels, amounts….). With this it is much easier for you to update these formats according to your company’s brand image and to apply the changes throughout your financial report. All Word styles used to format table templates are prefixed by DM. It is forbidden to include Normal style in the design of table templates.

Text Styles, Headers and Footers

SAP Disclosure Management, starter kit for U.S. GAAP also includes a template for text styles, headers and

footers, which by default is applied to all chapters when creating the final financial report. This template

showcases many interesting examples and best practices in terms of page layout, such as streamlining the

text formats via Microsoft Word styles, differentiating even and odd pages, including the title of the current

chapter or section in the page header or page numbers.

As with table formatting template, the template for text styles, headers and footers will be easily updated in

accordance with your company’s brand image, notably by replacing the SAP logo, replacing the default

report title and adapting the text styles.


14

Validation Dashboard

The starter kit for U.S. GAAP includes a Validation Dashboard configured as a specific chapter of the

financial report. It will be kept out of the final rendering of the final report while providing you with an at-a-

glance understanding of the data consistency. Firstly the dashboard shows the number of possible errors

raised in the table of contents of the data repository. Secondly it highlights the specific controls you may

configure in the report based on the amounts included in the tables.


15

10-Q Form

10-Q Structure

The starter kit includes a report whose chapters’ structure corresponds to the 10-Q form as defined by the

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. When designing your 10-Q filing in SAP Disclosure

Management, you can start from this report and import your Microsoft Word files into this structure.

10-Q Heading and Items

In addition to the 10-Q form structure, a generic 10-Q heading template and sample items are available

including placeholders dedicated to the information related to your company.


16

XBRL Tagging – Concepts, Contexts and Units

Each cell of the tagging file for period Q3 2012 have been tagged with the following elements:

One Concept from the starter kit’s taxonomy (see U.S. GAAP-based Taxonomy on page 20),

One of the base Contexts, or one of the related dimensional Contexts defined for the Statement of Changes in Equity and the notes,

o No unused context was defined as per EFM 6.5.8 (see Appendix),

One of the following Units when appropriate: USD (Dollar), perShare (USD per Share), shares.

o Unit templates defined in the starter kit are being used to tag amounts with decimal attribute (no precision attribute as per EFM 6.5.17).

In terms of contexts, six base contexts have been created in order to tag position data (period type = instant)

and periodic data (period type = duration) for both the current fiscal year and the prior fiscal year, and

position data for the year before the prior fiscal year:

Base Context ID Description Period Type

FYp0YTD Current Year – Year To Date Duration

FYm1YTD Prior Year – Year To Date Duration

FYp0Qp0e Current Year, Current Quarter End Instant

FYm1Qp0e Prior Year, Same Quarter End Instant

FYm1Q4e Prior Year, Fourth Quarter End Instant

FYm2Q4e Year minus 2, Fourth Quarter End Instant

Additional dimensional contexts are derived from the base contexts above. They were created to

dimensionally tag the data in the Statement of Changes in Equity with members of the Component of Equity

axis, and the data in the notes with members corresponding to components of tangible and intangible assets.

Example of dimensional context: Current Year to Date, Retained Earnings Member


17

When filing data are changed in the DEI worksheet, a macro is triggered to update the time-related attributes

(Instance, Start Date, and End Date) and the company attributes (Entity URI and Entity Code) of all contexts,

thus avoiding tagging information more than once. This macro uses the Report Builder’s Application

Programming Interface (see Updating Contexts Automatically below).

Data Retrieval Formula

The data retrieval formulas for XBRL include additional mechanism for validating the reporting data against

the U.S. GAAP taxonomy and:

reversing the sign of the source amount

Data may be of negative sign in the financial reports whereas the values of the business facts in the XBRL instance are absolute to match the balance attribute (debit or credit) of the corresponding taxonomy concepts.

adjusting the weight of the amounts by 1 or -1 to check the rollup consistency on rounded amounts.

The calculation hierarchy is displayed in column B of the reports in order to ensure consistency controls of total accounts.

Rollup Consistency Controls

Worksheets include control columns (right columns in red color) in which the difference between amounts

stored on parent accounts and the sum of amounts stored on the respective child accounts is computed.

These visual controls reflect the rollup calculation controls defined in the taxonomy, and therefore allow you

to anticipate on possible rollup errors raised by the validation engine of Report Builder.


18

Formatting

Microsoft Excel cells have no background color except for the tagged cells.

Notes block tagging and table tagging

In order to comply with the SEC filing requirement, textual information and entire tables must be block-

tagged. As a reminder, the 4 levels of tagging required by the SEC from the second year of mandatory XBRL

filing:

Level 1: block tagging of notes

Level 2: separate block tagging by significant accounting policy

Level 3: separate block tagging by table

Level 4: detail tagging at amount level for amounts included in tables and footnotes

In the data repository report, subsections have been created under the chapter of the XBRL tagging

workbook so that the content of the corresponding Microsoft Word chapters can be tagged and notably entire

blocks of chapters, paragraphs and tables.

Thus SAP Disclosure Management, starter kit for U.S. GAAP illustrates how the different levels of text detail

are associated with the appropriate concept in the U.S. GAAP taxonomy. Opening the chapters from this

data cache view allows you to tag the required information in the same text files that make up your annual

report, and ensure the consistency of the data in the report and in the XBRL filing. By following these

examples for the rest of your financial report, all the required textual information of your notes will be

included in your XBRL instance.

Updating Contexts Automatically

A VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) macro is attached to the DEI worksheet so that it is triggered when one

of the context-related pieces of information is updated in this sheet: entity URI, entity code, period end date


19

or fiscal year end date. This allows you to automatically update all the time and entity related properties of

the predefined contexts, including dimensional contexts.

This macro is based on the Application Programming Interface (API) of the Report Builder component. It

illustrates how you can leverage the openness and smart programming capabilities of this SAP Disclosure

Management component.


20

U.S. GAAP-BASED TAXONOMY

Organizing the Taxonomy Files

The starter kit includes a customizable XBRL taxonomy which can be modified to reflect your own filing

requirements, notably in terms of specific concepts. In this respect, the namespace prefix “comp” has been

defined and identifies the taxonomy items that are specific to your group: extended primary concepts and

members, labels and links between elements (presentation links, calculation links and definition links).

The taxonomy files are named and organized in compliance with rule 6.3.3 of the EDGAR® Filer Manual

(see EFM 6.3.3 in Appendix).

XBRL Document File name*

Schema comp-20120930.xsd

Calculation Linkbase comp-20120930_cal.xml

Definition Linkbase comp-20120930_def.xml

Label Linkbase comp-20120930_lab.xml

Presentation Linkbase comp-20120930_pre.xml

*For a company identified with “comp” and for 2012 third quarter end

According to this EFM rule, for Q3 2012 year end, the XBRL instance that you will create with your corporate

extensions should be named comp-20120930.xml where “comp” stands for your SEC registrant ID.

The “comp” default prefix must be changed to the filing prefix of your company both for taxonomy elements

and the files’ names. You can do this in the Taxonomy Information section via Taxonomy Designer.

Locating and operating the taxonomy files

The xml taxonomy files are stored in the Disclosure Management repository. Therefore they are stored in the

server’s side as with any Microsoft Office file used in the data repository or the financial report. A specific

XBRL taxonomy-type report has been created for this purpose for the Q3 2012 period: U.S.GAAP2012-

based taxonomy.

In order to operate the XBRL tagging workbook, the user needs to load the taxonomy from the Report

Builder menu. For doing so, the taxonomy files can be accessed via WebDAV1 as illustrated hereafter:

1 WebDAV is an extension of the HTTP protocol which allows you to browse the content of the database as in a folders

hierarchy. WebDAV must be properly setup on the Disclosure Management server; it is strongly recommended to map a network drive in Windows Explorer to the WebDAV directories and to refer to this drive for loading the taxonomy.


21

Presentation Groups

The following presentation groups, i.e. Extended Link Roles in XBRL terms, have been created in the

taxonomy in order to reflect the 4 levels of tagging required by the SEC mandate:

00000 - Document - Document And Entity Information

00100 - Statement - Consolidated Statement Of Operations

00200 - Statement - Consolidated Balance Sheets

00300 - Statement - Consolidated Statement Of Cash Flows

00400 - Statement - Consolidated Statement Of Shareholders Equity

10100 - Disclosure - Significant Accounting Policies

10200 - Disclosure - Acquisitions

20100 - Disclosure - Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

30200 - Disclosure - Acquisitions (Tables)

40200 - Disclosure - Acquisitions (Details)

10300 - Disclosure - Goodwill And Intangible Assets

30300 - Disclosure - Goodwill and Intangible Assets (Tables)

40300 - Disclosure - Goodwill and Intangible Assets (Details)

40301 - Disclosure - Goodwill and Intangible Assets (Details2)

10400 - Disclosure - Supplemental Balance Sheet Information

30400 - Disclosure - Supplemental Balance Sheet Information (Tables)

40400 - Disclosure - Supplemental Balance Sheet Information (Details)

10500 - Disclosure - Capital Stock

10600 - Disclosure - Income Taxes

10700 - Disclosure - Pension Plan

10800 - Disclosure - Fair Value Measurements

10900 - Disclosure - Commitments And Contingencies

11000 - Disclosure - Comprehensive Income

11100 - Disclosure - Business Segments

11200 - Disclosure - Geographic Areas

The descriptions of these presentation groups abide by the EFM 6.7.12 rule ({SortCode} - {Type} - {Title}).


22

The first presentation group (00000) includes mandatory information related to the document and the

publisher entity (DEI) as per EFM 6.5.21 such as the document type, the document fiscal year focus and the

entity registrant name. The four presentation groups 00100 to 00400 correspond to the publishable financial

statements. The coding of the disclosures enable to quickly identify the level of tagging required for the

concepts:

The first position corresponds to the level of tagging (1 for block tagging, 2 for tagging of policies, 3 for

tagging of tables, 4 for detailed tagging)

The second to the the third position is the ordering number of the document

The forth and the fifth position is the ordering number of the detail data for Level IV tagging

Organizing Concepts: Presentation, Calculation, Definition

The vast majority of concepts used in the taxonomy for the financial statements listed above are U.S. GAAP

concepts imported from the U.S. GAAP taxonomy released by the FASB (

http://www.fasb.org/jsp/FASB/Page/SectionPage&cid=1176157087972 ). The hierarchies of concepts

defined in the Presentation view, in the Calculation view and in the Definition view are essentially based on

those of the standard U.S. GAAP taxonomy.

Example 1: Statement of Operations – Presentation view

Example 2: Statement of Cash Flows, Indirect Method – Calculation view

http://www.fasb.org/jsp/FASB/Page/SectionPage&cid=1176157087972


23

Example 3: Statement of Changes in Equity – Definition view

Example 4: Note – Supplemental Balance Sheet Information – Presentation view


24

The names of extension concepts have been defined as per the Label Camel Case Concatenation (LC3)

convention (see EFM 6.8.5 in Appendix). Besides, all standard labels are different from one another in

accordance with section 6.10.4 of the Edgar Filer Manual (see EFM 6.10.4 in Appendix).

EDGAR Filer Manual Validation

The EDGAR filing process requires that electronic filings to the SEC be validated prior to submission against

the most recent version of the EDGAR Filer Manual Volume II published on the U.S. SEC website. In support

of this requirement, Report Builder implements an automated electronic financial review checklist for

Interactive Data Exhibit 100 (attachment type EX-100) and Exhibit 101 (attachment type EX-101).

The validation process is based on Rules Library catalogs that are defined in formula linkbases. By default,

rules associated to U.S. GAAP 2010 and 2011 may exist in the current release Report Builder but not U.S.

GAAP 2012. In order to support the U.S. GAAP 2012 taxonomy, you may need to create a new library of

business rules for Report Validation.

To do so, follow these steps:

1) Update the Taxonomy List

Edit the resource file TaxonomiesList.xml located in your user directory (in Windows 7 environments:

C:\Users\(name)\AppDataLocal\EDGAR Online\UBmatrix Report Builder\RBMEResources\System) and

declare the U.S. GAAP 2012 taxonomy by adding new rows in the XML file:

CONCLUSION

Corporate reporting is very specific to each company. In terms of content, many lines of your financial

statements, your notes and all the textual information are relevant to your company only. As regards the

form, the layout of your annual and quarterly reports is similar to no other.

SAP Disclosure Management, starter kit for U.S. GAAP provides you with a valuable starting point to secure

and accelerate your own disclosure implementation. In order to make sure that you benefit from all SAP best

practices, you just have to follow simple steps such as:

Adapting the cache Excel files to import your financial statements,

Creating reports and periods,

Updating the pre-delivered text styles,

Extending the default taxonomy, and

Inserting your logo.

It is always easier and safer to adapt existing tried-and-tested elements than designing them from scratch.

Take advantage of SAP Disclosure Management, Starter Kit for U.S. GAAP to streamline your compliance to

disclosure requirements and reduce implementation time.

APPENDIX

Edgar Filer Manual Rules

This section lists the EFM rules which are explicitly referred to throughout the present document. More

detailed explanations about these rules can be found in chapter 6 of the Edgar Filer Manual, Volume II

available on the U.S. SEC website at the following URL:

http://www.sec.gov/info/edgar/edmanuals.htm

EFM 6.3.3 XBRL document names must match {base}-{date}[_{suffix}].{extension}.

EFM 6.5.8 Every xbrli:context element must appear in at least one contextRef attribute in the same instance.

EFM 6.5.17 The xbrli:xbrl element must not have any facts with the precision attribute.

EFM 6.5.21 An instance must contain one non-empty fact for each required Entity Information element, each with a contextRef attribute referring to a Required Context. The value of an EntityPublicFloat fact in an instance will be 0 for an entity that has only public debt.

EFM 6.6.31 The content of a numeric fact never has a scale factor.

EFM 6.6.34 Do not define or use units that imply a scale factor on a currency.

EFM 6.7.12 A link:roleType element must contain a link:definition child element whose content will communicate the title of the financial statement section, the level of facts in the instance that a presentation relationship in the base set of that role would display, and sort alphanumerically into the order that statements and footnotes appear in the official HTML/ASCII document. The link:roleType link:definition text must match the following pattern: {SortCode} - {Type} - {Title}

EFM 6.8.4 Wherever possible, registrants should assign a standard and other labels for an element defined in a standard taxonomy schema in preference to declaring a new element in a company schema.

EFM 6.8.5 The name attribute of an xsd:element should consist of capitalized words corresponding to the standard label, a convention called LC3.

EFM 6.10.4 The DTS of an instance must have no distinct elements having the same English standard label (xml:lang attribute equal to “en-US”)
