XBRL Conversion Process

Follow these six essential steps to ensure a successful XBRL filing through BizFinx.

01

Collect Financial Statements

The process begins with gathering finalized financial statements prepared in accordance with applicable financial reporting standards.

  • Statement of Financial Position (Balance Sheet)
  • Statement of Profit or Loss
  • Statement of Changes in Equity
  • Statement of Cash Flows
  • Notes to Financial Statements
  • Directors' Report
02

Map Financial Data to Taxonomy

Each financial element is mapped to the appropriate taxonomy defined by ACRA. Accurate mapping is critical to avoid validation errors.

  • Revenue → Revenue element
  • Total Assets → Assets element
  • Profit Before Tax → Profit element
  • Cash and Cash Equivalents → Cash element
  • Share Capital → Equity element
03

Perform XBRL Tagging

During this stage, financial figures are assigned XBRL tags, notes and disclosures are structured, and relationships between financial elements are defined.

  • Financial figures are assigned XBRL tags
  • Notes and disclosures are structured
  • Relationships between financial elements are defined
  • Creates a machine-readable XBRL instance document
04

Validate the XBRL File

Validation ensures correct taxonomy usage, completed required disclosures, and logical relationships between financial data.

  • Correct taxonomy usage
  • Required disclosures are completed
  • Financial data follows logical relationships
  • Errors identified must be corrected
05

Review and Approval

Before submission, the XBRL report is reviewed for accuracy of financial figures, correct tagging, and completeness of disclosures.

  • Accuracy of financial figures
  • Correct tagging
  • Completeness of disclosures
06

Submit through BizFinx

The final XBRL file is submitted through the BizFinx platform.

  • The filing is recorded by ACRA
  • Compliance requirements are fulfilled
  • Financial data becomes part of the regulatory system

✦ Why This Process

Where AI Speed Meets Human Judgment

Each of the six steps above splits work between what AI does best and what still needs a person. AI reads and maps your statement at machine speed; the reviewer's job is everything a machine can misjudge -footnote meaning, document structure, and whether a number actually matches its source.

Tagging Quality

Every figure mapped to the precise taxonomy element, not a coarse approximation.

Visual Elegance

Line-item order and groupings kept exactly as your statement was prepared.

Footnote Clarity

Related-party notes and restatements read and tagged individually, not summarized.

Detailed Understanding

Every tag cross-checked back against the source statement before delivery.
