XBRL Text Block is Invalid

Answered
Request Demo
Hi there - XBRL related question here. Im receiving an error that says my text block is invalid because it may have been disconnected and needs to be re-added and then to run an XBRL doc check. Well I've done all of those things, including deleting the block and re-creating it but with no luck. Does anyone have a solution? Thanks for your help

    My first thought was whether you applied a concept other ​T​han a [Text Block]. For example, did you inadvertently select a [Policy Text  Block] or [Table Text Block]? You’ll want to make sure it’s just a [Text  Block].

     
    ​I'd s​a​y ​double-check ​and also if track changes are enabled too. ​Let me know what you find​. ​Thanks!

    So it can't be that because these are the same text blocks that we had on our 10-K which we filed a couple months ago without the issue. I thought it might have been a deprecated concept, but we migrated for the 10-K and didnt have the issue.

    I've had that error before, but this is a text block for an entire footnote, so would changes, hidden tables, verbiage changes, etc., have an impact on that?

    Just wanted to say that accepting the track changes worked! Thanks for that suggestion!!

    Hi , How to create text block in NextGen? I can't find this feature in NextGen.

    Hi Sally,

    In next gen, to create a text block tag, simply select the chunk of text you are looking to tag and from the XBRL tab, click the Create Fact + button.

    Then, from there you can select the text block type tag from the search window. In the right-hand panel for Fact Details, click Select Concept and search the Concept Selector for the tag. After you apply it, you'll need to add a date to the tag, but at this point your text block is tagged.

    Hopefully this helps. Let me know what questions you have for me or if you need anything else. Happy Friday!
