On December 16, 2024, the SEC introduced EDGAR Release 24.4 that included EDGAR filing website and EDGAR Online updates as well as the following XBRL Updates:

• EDGAR will be updated to accept the 2024Q4 version of the Variable Insurance Products (“VIP”) XBRL taxonomy, which incorporates new disclosure requirements on Form N-4 for non-variable annuities. (2024Q4 VIP taxonomy is now available within the Workiva platform)
• Starting January 1, 2025, all new inline XBRL filings will display with IXViewer Plus on SEC.gov. IXViewer Legacy will remain in use for existing filings and those submitted through December 31, 2024 (except for those with multiple inline XBRL documents or instances, or a reference to ffd or sbs taxonomy, which will continue to use IXViewerPlus). The Workiva platform has now been updated to incorporate these changes to the SEC Viewer. The changes include visual updates to the viewer including a new red highlighting feature for XBRL applied to text blocks. See more information below. 
• EDGAR update to allow RXP filings in Inline XBRL in addition to traditional XBRL-XML format.

This release also included the EDGAR Filing Website update for added support for a new Form SHO related to Rule 13f-2 for 13F institutional investment managers. For more information on this new form, please see the related community post for Form SHO - another 13F Reporting Requirement.
