Definition

XBRL Domain. An element that represents a set of members sharing a specified semantic nature; the domain and its members are used to classify facts along the axis of a table. A domain is a set of related values. In XBRL, domains are defined using taxonomy elements that are used to group domain members.

Example

  • Examples of different domains for use on a "geography" dimension would be "Countries", "Continents" or "States".
  • "Lithuania" is a domain member in the domain "Member States," and would be used to classify elements domain set in the taxonomy. When a fact does not have any domain member specified, that means it applies to the entire domain or to a default member of such as revenues and assets in Lithuania as distinct from other Member States.
