| 4 | Improvements | When importing data from variable row tables Report Authority now reports all rows with duplicate row dimensions rather than reporting only the first occurrence. |
| 5 | Improvement | When generating an Excel import template, Report Authority now adds a note containing the calculation expression to cells containing automatic calculations. |
| 6 | Improvement | Significantly increased the performance of adding Microsoft SQL Server adaptors to data points of existing tables. |
| 7 | Improvement | Significantly increased the performance of adding Excel Named Range adaptors to data points of existing tables during the create import template and auto-link functionality. |
| 8 | Improvement | The Update Import Template functionality is now more tolerant of changes to the order of Excel sheets. Previously the sheets Cover Page, TOC and Fact List were assumed to be the first 3 sheets. |
| 9 | Improvement | Automatic calculations created from validation rules that are subsequently disabled are removed from the Report Authority document. |
| 10 | Improvement | Report Authority now gives the option not to create a compressed XBRL file when generating output using the OneGate envelope for the French regulator. |
| 11 | Bug Fix | Report Authority would crash when generating an Excel Import template with automatic calculations enabled in some cases (For example having both F 08.01.a and F 08.01.b enabled from the EBA DPM 2.8 taxonomy). |
| 12 | Bug Fix | Fixed a logical miscalculation in the HasFallbackValue function which could result in a false positive during the validation process - discovered with v8713_m in the EBA DPM 2.9 taxonomy. |
| 13 | Bug Fix | Fixed a bug that would result in a truncation of sheet labels in the Expression column of the validation panel (impacting only the display of failures - not the accuracy). |
| 14 | Bug Fix | Fixed a bug that would result in automatic calculations being inserted into the wrong column in variable row tables when updating an import template create using version 19.1 of Report Authority. |
| 15 | Bug Fix | Automatic calculations were erroneously set up at the same scale as the source data scale setting. For documents created with a source data scale of Thousands, the calculation result was incorrectly multiplied by 1000. |
| 16 | Bug Fix | Fixed a bug that would cause Report Authority to crash when exporting data to Excel in documents with very large data sets in variable row tables. |
20.1.1 (27 March 2020)
| No | Category | Change |
| 1 | New Taxonomy | New National Bank of Belgium Solvency II NST for Interest Rate Risk. |
| 2 | New Functionality | Microsoft SQL Server Adaptor |
| 3 | New Functionality | Report Authority now gives an option to automate template totals and subtotals. |
| 4 | New Functionality | When generating an XBRL document, the option for compressing it into a zip file is now available. |
| 5 | New Functionality | Report Authority now has the ability to automatically tag free format tables, such as Income Statements and Balance Sheets. |
| 6 | New Functionality | When validating a document, Report Authority will now also validate the calculation linkbase (if one exists). Currently, this impacts the CIPC and ESEF free-format taxonomies. |
| 7 | Improvements | Report Authority will automatically update the list of disabled validation rules in existing documents base on the list of disabled rules included in the software release. |
| 8 | Improvement | The Display Name columns in variable row tables are now omitted from Excel import templates. |
| 9 | Improvement | When creating a new document, you can set the scale of your source data. Previously this was determined by a user setting that was not transparent. |
| 10 | Improvement | Report Authority will now only report failures when validating for a single table (but the previous behavior can be restored by changing an application setting). This change was made due to the long time it could take to report all rule passes in very large variable row tables. |
| 11 | Improvement | When validating the document, Report Authority will pause if any inconsistent duplicate fact errors are detected before continuing. The presence of inconsistent duplicate fact errors often causes unexpected results in taxonomy validation results. |
| 12 | Improvement | The file naming convention when generating files for the Luxembourg regulator has been updated to support the EBA DPM 2.9 taxonomy and the SRB v4.0 taxonomy. |
| 13 | Improvement | Report Authority will remove any leading or trailing whitespace in identifier scheme URLs entered manually to prevent rejection by regulators. |
| 14 | Improvement | You can now select the taxonomy you wish to use as you create your free-format documents. |
| 15 | Improvement | Some shortcut keys have been remapped to prevent the issue where special characters could not be typed with the Alt key modifier. |
