Tags in Non Printing Section

Answered

Is there a reason / rationale why some items need to be tagged in a non printing section but others don't? On the cover page and in parenthetical we have multiple tags that are in there, do these actually need to be tagged in this format or is there another way to tag these numbers?

    Generally, items should not need to be tagged in multiple places. The need for tagging a fact in a hidden section exists when that fact does not comply with acceptable Inline XBRL Transformations (see EFM 5.2.5.12) and in the case of Cover Page tagging where certain facts are mandatory for tagging purposes but do not exist on the Cover Page itself. Furthermore, Next Gen provides many benefits of reducing the dependency on hidden sections by allowing sub-cell linking/tagging and applying multiple facts (with different dates for example) on the same number.
