Definition

An XBRL Tag (or XBRL Mark) is to use specific XBRL Taxonomy elements to identify disclosures reported in an annual financial report or other Business Reporting document. Hence tagging means effectively having an XBRL Element name assigned to a piece of information that can be used to unambiguously identify it.

Example

<cash>1000</cash>

  • the word “cash” together with the angle brackets “<” and “>” is a tag
  • there are opening tags: <...> and closing tags: </...> which are recognized by the use of the backslash“/” before the tag name.
