Locate concepts, dates, and units

Use Locate XBRL to find where concepts, dates, or units are used in your document.

Locate concepts

There are two ways to locate a concept in your document -- through the Locate XBRL panel and from the XBRL outline.

Use Locate XBRL

Locate XBRL lets you find where any concept is used in your document, including deprecated and new concepts.

1

Open the document and make sure Show XBRL is on.

2

Choose an XBRL profile if one is not already applied.

3

Open the Locate XBRL panel on the right.

4

Click Concepts. A full list of concepts used in your document appears.

5

Enter the concept name in the search field to find a specific concept and press Enter to update the list of results.

6

Use the filter options to narrow the results:

• Concept Type
• Period
• Data Type
• Section
• Deprecated
• New

7

Click a result to jump to that location in the document.

8

To clear results, remove text from the search field and click Clear in the filter options.
