Required Member on An Axis

Rule ID: DQC_0055
Status: Final
Release date: October 4, 2017
Effective date: June 1, 2018

Rule function

In a number of cases the US GAAP taxonomy defines members that are intended to be used for organizational purposes on an axis. These members allow children to be grouped under the member. The FASB has defined certain situations where a member or multiple members must used with an axis. If the member or combination of members is not used then an error results. This rule defines the axis and the member or members that must be present.

This rule checks whether either the Domestic Plan Member or Foreign Plan Member or both are used on the RetirementPlanSponsorLocationAxis.

Axis Member
Retirement Plan Sponsor Location [Axis] Domestic Plan [Member] OR Foreign Plan [Member]

This rule differs from DQC_0001 because DQC_0001 defines what members are allowed to be used on an axis and reports when inappropriate members are used. This rule checks that at a minimum specific members are used.

The rule will report a single error when either the DomesticPlanMember OR ForeignPlanMember is not used with the axis in a given presentation linkrole. The rule will create a single error in each role where the condition occurs. If either one of the elements is present then no error will be reported. If only the member RetirementPlanSponsorLocationDomain is associated with the axis then no error will be reported. This rule should be evaluated by navigating the presentation linkbase and not the definition linkbase. The presentation and definition linkbases are assumed to be the same.

Updates for Version 18 Based on feedback from the FASB the rule was updated to include 3 additional checks. The rule also now checks the following:

  1. The rule now looks at the paths under the Retirement Plan Sponsor Location [Axis] and determines that each path includes either the Domestic Plan [Member] OR Foreign Plan [Member]. This prevents filers from using one of these members on one path and none of these members on a second path.
  2. The rule checks that if the Domestic Plan [Member] is used the member includes children.
  3. The rule checks that if the Foreign Plan [Member] is used that the member includes children.

Basis for rule

This is defined in the FASB taxonomy and retirement benefits implementation guide in 2017 and applies to filings using the 2017 US GAAP taxonomy and subsequent taxonomies.

Problem solved by the rule

The DomesticPlanMember and/or ForeignPlanMember are used on the RetirementPlanSponsorLocationAxis to act as a parent member for specific countries. The rule checks that at a minimum one of these members is included. If it is not used, the axis is being used inappropriately.

Example rule message

Neither the Domestic Plan [Member] NOR Foreign Plan [Member] has been used on the Retirement Plan Sponsor Location [Axis] in the presentation linkbase http://www.abc.com/20170331/role/statement-note-6-retirement-plan. The FASB requires that either one or both of these members is present on the Retirement Plan Sponsor Location [Axis]. Please review the axis and add one of these members or assess the need to use the Retirement Plan Sponsor Location [Axis].

Rule version: 5.0
