An Innovative Approach to Data Integration: Let XBRL GL do it for you

TORONTO, Nov. 3 /CNW/ - XBRL Canada is very proud to have Eric Cohen from PricewaterhouseCoopers present how to understand & leverage XBRL's Global Ledger Framework (XBRL GL).

Many people think of XBRL as simply a way to file financial statements of public companies. But nothing could be further from the truth. XBRL GL is the taxonomy developed and recognized by XBRL International as THE standard way to represent the detailed data found in accounting, business and operational systems. It could be called XBRL Detailed Data or XBRL ERP and is valuable for internal as well as external reporting.

More than standardizing a "general ledger" or representing a standard chart of accounts, XBRL GL was designed to help businesses, large AND small, to move information between, into and out from their accounting systems to integrate with external systems and share information with their accountants and external advisors.

In this timely webcast, you will learn how XBRL GL can standardize and simplify information exchange, revolutionize business intelligence and audit, and be used today with our existing accounting software. You'll also learn why the bolt-on approach to implementing XBRL misses so many opportunities.
