In my last post I noted that “…XBRL US is saying don’t file your 2009 XBRL exhibit with the SEC using the dification taxonomy extension. If you do, the SEC’s Edgar system won’t be able to aept your filing.” This statement is rrect but let’s clarify it further.

The SEC will not reject all filings, they will only reject those that are filed with either the Relative dification Extension or the Absolute dification Extension. These dification Extensions are for reference purposes only. The intent is that they may assist you in making sure your data is tagged to the rrect 2009 US GAAP Taxonomy element now that US GAAP is set forth only in the dification. The reason the SEC will reject electronic filings that inlude either the Relative or Absolute dification Extension is because EDGAR has not been modified to aept the new Taxonomy Extensions.

To file your XBRL exhibit with the SEC use the 2009 US GAAP Taxonomy. You may extend the 2009 US GAAP Taxonomy as needed to acmodate your specific business and financial data. After you finish tagging your data and producing your XBRL files you may seperately verify that your tagged data is nnected to the appropriate area of the dification by utilizing one of the dification Extensions.
