Presentation View
You can view the details of an instance document before you export it. Each element in the taxonomy is displayed along with the associated values that have been tagged in the CaseView document. You can view the details by the different contexts or unit of measure/numeric options associated with the tagged element.
Viewing the details of the instance document

- Complete the options in the wizard until you are at the XBRL Export Summary dialog.
- Click Preview Document. The details are displayed.

Calculation View
When exporting an XBRL file, diagnostics are displayed in the XBRL Diagnostics dialog. Tagged numeric items in the document are checked to see if they sum up correctly based on the taxonomy's calculation linkbase. If any are out of balance, they are displayed in the Diagnostics list with a description of the error and the severity of the problem. You can select the calculation error to correct any tagging errors.
In Calculation View, each taxonomy element is displayed with the value from the CaseView document (under Given Value) and the value calculated using the taxonomy’s calculation linkbase (under Calculated Value). Values in red indicate that the two values do not match.
