Advanced capabilities

Technical depth without workflow friction.

Import Existing Filings

Bring submitted or draft XBRL XML and xBRL-CSV ZIP packages back into Excel for review, data remediation, or template reuse.

Cell-Level Diagnostics

Stop hunting for broken data. Validation errors map directly to the offending spreadsheet cells with formula failures clearly explained.

Autonomous Taxonomy Manager

Download, refresh, and switch European regulatory taxonomy versions locally without waiting for IT deployments or system re-installs.

Audit raw filings

Turn machine-readable filings into review evidence.

Inspect submitted or draft XBRL without forcing reporting teams to work through XML logs.

Validate the package

Run taxonomy-backed validation on XBRL XML or xBRL-CSV packages, including formulas and table linkbase rules.

Visualize the filing

Render raw filing data as readable HTML or Excel so reviewers can inspect tables, values, and diagnostics.

Review with evidence

Use validation output, rendered tables, and imported workbooks to support remediation and filing sign-off.

Bidirectional conversion

Move between Excel, XBRL XML, and xBRL-CSV.

Review, remediate, and republish a filing in the format required by its destination portal.

The reporting team stays in control

Built for Financial Reporting Teams. Not Just IT.

Legacy XML suites treat regulatory filings like generic developer data pipelines, forcing financial teams to rely on complex IT toolchains. PenguinXBRL keeps the reporting machinery close to the spreadsheet. Your team owns the data context, runs the table linkbase validations, and handles remediation entirely inside Excel.

It natively handles EBA (4.0, 4.1, 4.2), DORA, Solvency II, EIOPA, COREP, FINREP, Pillar 3, MICA, and specific DNB extensions.
Can I convert files between XML and xBRL-CSV?
Yes. The platform provides full bidirectional conversion workflows. You can import legacy XBRL XML into Excel, export modern xBRL-CSV report package ZIPs, or transition back to standard XML depending on your destination portal's requirements.
