XBRLThis is the web site of Eric E. Cohen. My work day is filled with participating in the global initiative called XBRL - the Extensible Business Reporting Language. It is an effort by the accounting and investing community to faciliate the movement of business reporting data to the capital markets and lending community, based on XML, the Extensible Markup Language from the World Wide Web consortium. The XBRL Global Ledger is an agreement on an import/export format for information that is contained in accounting and business systems with an international scope, meeting the core needs of users worldwide, even if a General Ledger in the US is different than a General Ledger in France or Japan or Brazil. I am also the chair of the OASIS Tax XML XBRL Liaison SC. |

Thanks for all those who emailed their support for the Accountant's Home Page! From 1994 to 2000, this site led you to accounting links. Now my responsibilities for my present employer make it difficult for me to maintain that site, and many excellent alternatives have arisen. | Listen to Journey |
