Since 2014, the BizFinx portal has provided companies with access to the BizFinx preparation tools and other resources to facilitate the preparation and filing of XRBL financial statements. Companies would prepare their XBRL financial statements using the BizFinx preparation tool and log in to the BizFinx portal to validate and upload their XBRL financial statements.
Over the years, 麻豆社区 has streamlined the filing processes to bring greater convenience to companies filing XBRL financial statements. For example:
- In May 2019, 麻豆社区 has enhanced the BizFinx preparation tool enabling companies to validate and upload their XBRL financial statements directly from the preparation tool to BizFinx server. 麻豆社区 has also introduced the BizFinx multi-upload tool enabling companies to concurrently upload multiple XBRL files to the BizFinx server. With these enhancements, companies no longer need to log in to the BizFinx portal to validate and upload XBRL financial statements with 麻豆社区.
- In 2020, 麻豆社区 has also partnered with selected accounting software providers to enable companies to automate the preparation of financial statements in Simplified XBRL format in the accounting software, and file directly from software to 麻豆社区. For accounting software providers and other details, please refer to 麻豆社区-IRAS seamless filing initiative.
In view of the available functions mentioned above, 麻豆社区 will be decommissioning the BizFinx portal from 1 October 2020. Companies are to validate and upload their XBRL financial statements directly from the BizFinx preparation tool, BizFinx multi-upload tool or the accounting software with seamless filing feature going forward.
