Edit extension concepts

You can edit, deprecate, and undeprecate extension concepts from Ext. Concepts on the XBRL toolbar.

Choose an XBRL profile if one is not already applied.

3

Edit extension concepts

To edit an extension concept:

1

Click Attributes on the XBRL toolbar then choose Extension Concepts. 

2

Click the dropdown menu for the extension concept you want to edit and select Edit.

3

Make your desired changes and click the green checkmark to save the changes.

Deprecate extension concepts

Deprecate an extension concept when it should no longer be used. Deprecating it adds the next to the extension name so others know it is no longer used. However, you can undeprecate it to continue using it.

1

Click Attributes on the XBRL toolbar then choose Extension Concepts. 

2

Click the drop-down menu for the extension concept and select Deprecate. If a fact is still using a deprecated extension concept, it turns yellow in Fact Details and the Deprecated symbol appears next to it.

To undeprecate an extension concept, click the dropdown menu and select Undeprecate.
