From time to time, you will need to perform an update of your General Data sheet (not the information, but the code). Avant d’effectuer la mise à jour, vous devez toutefois télécharger la dernière version de notre « Tagging Template ».
WARNING: We urge you to follow the instructions closely. The general data sheet contains hidden information, which is needed for the Workiva Report Tagging Tool to read the file properly. La modification ou la suppression de l’une de ces informations entraînera des erreurs.
Performing an automatic update of the General Data sheet
If your current Excel template is outdated, you can perform an automatic update of the General Data sheet by following the directions below. If your Excel template is version 1.1.4 or earlier, you instead need to follow these directions.
- Download the latest version of our Tagging Template here and follow the indications there.
-
When you have downloaded the latest version of the General Data sheet, you need to open it along with the Excel template you use for conversion. Assurez-vous que vous êtes sur la bonne feuille dans le fichier intitulé ESEF Tagging Template.
Note: The update file for the general data sheet is protected by password, but you can perform the update by choosing to open the file as "Read Only" when prompted to type in a password.
- Then navigate to the General Data ESEF sheet of the Excel template you use for conversion.
Notice that the version number in the top left corner of the sheet is different from the one in the ESEF tagging template you downloaded. - While in the General Data sheet of the Excel file you use for conversion, press "CTRL+W". This updates the code behind the sheet without changing the information you've already added.
- Une fenêtre s’ouvre ensuite pour vous demander si vous souhaitez supprimer l’ancienne fiche de données générales. Click Yes.
- After you've performed the update, look in the top left corner of the General Data sheet. Il affichera désormais le même numéro de version que le modèle que vous avez téléchargé.
- Please be aware that the latest version of the Excel template won’t contain green area in the General Data sheet where you included information about the company.
After performing the update, you will be able to find this information on the newly created sheet “General data ESEF_REPORT”. You can delete that sheet when the data is saved elsewhere.
How to manually copy or move the General Data sheet
If your current General Data sheet is of version prior to 1.1.5, you won't be able to automatically update the general data sheet as described in the process above. Instead you need to perform a manual copy, select the cells in the General Data sheet.
Clicking Copy is not enough.
- Assurez-vous d’abord d’ouvrir la dernière version du modèle de données générales. You can download the latest version of the of the general data template here;
- Right-click the General Data ESEF tab and select Move or Copy....
This opens a pop-up menu with the options to either copy or move the selected sheet. - Mark the checkbox that says Create a Copy in order to copy the sheet.
- Select the workbook you want to copy the general data sheet to from the dropdown menu at the top and finish by pressing OK.
- This copies the selected sheet to your chosen workbook, but it does not delete the old copy of the General Data Sheet, which means you will now have two sheets: one sheet titled "General data ESEF (2)" and one sheet titled "General data ESEF".
- Delete the old sheet and rename the newly updated sheet to "General data ESEF".
To make sure you keep the right sheet, you can check that the versioning number found in the top left corner of your sheet corresponds with the latest update template.
Performing an automatic update of the ESEF hypertags/ESEF tags sheet
Updating both the ESEF tags or Hypertags sheets is done in the same way as updating the General Data sheet. These same steps can be followed to update the Hypertags sheet as long as you remember that you need to be on the tab in order for it to work.
