When you have prepared your ESEF file and want to start the review process with your auditor, you will be asked to provide a list of different files.
Below, you will find a list of files that your auditor may ask you to provide.
1. The ESEF file (ZIP package)
This file can be downloaded from the ParsePort Platform in the Validation tab after converting your files into iXBRL format. To download the package, you should click on the “ZIP” icon in the top right hand corner of the Validation page.
2. Validation report
The validation report lists all the information you can find in the validation tab. This report can be downloaded from the Validation page via the second downward arrow icon in the top right corner.
3.The viewer file
The viewer file allows you to check your ESEF report without using dedicated software like the ParsePort Platform. This xHTML file is not part of the ZIP package, but you can download it from the ParsePort Platform. To download the Viewer file, you can move to the Viewer tab and click on the downward arrow icon which you will find at the top right corner of the page.
4. A fact list
The fact list is a list of all the taxonomy elements used in your report. This file is not part of the ZIP package, but you can download it from the ParsePort Platform. You can download it by moving to the Facts tab and clicking the downward arrow icon in the top right corner of the Facts page.
5. Extensions list
This list is similar to the fact list, but instead of listing all taxonomy elements, it shows only the extension elements used within your report. This is not part of the ZIP package, but you can download it from the ParsePort Platform by clicking the downward arrow icon on the top right corner of the Extensions page.
Additionally, you can use the ParsePort Platform User Manual where export options are explained in detail. You can find the Platform User Manual by clicking on the below icon and selecting the option “User Manual”.
