A set of facts to be displayed has, at a minimum, a primary axis and a period axis. If there are numeric facts, it also has a unit axis. If the contexts have xbrli:segment elements then it has a set of additional axes. To lay out a report, every axis with more than one member must be assigned a layout direction (column or row) and if there is more than one axis per direction, they must be nested. In the default layout, the period axis is on the columns and the primary axis is on the rows. For example: If there is a Unit axis, the units are on the Columns. If there are any other axes, they are on the rows. The nesting of the columns in the default layout is:
Layout as Columns and Rows
Period Axis →
12 mo. ended
Dec 31 2013
Dec 31, 2012
Primary Axis ↓
Line Items:
Revenue:
For example:
Period Axis → | 12 mo. ended
Dec 31 2013 |
12 mo. ended
Dec 31 2013 |
Dec 31, 2012 | Dec 31, 2012 |
---|---|---|---|---|
Unit Axis → | USD | CNY | USD | CNY |
Primary Axis ↓ | ||||

The nesting of rows in the default layout is:
For example, if the presentation base set had ordered the "Entity" Axis before the primary axis with a default member and one member "ABS Subsidiary", then the nesting would appear as follows:
Entity Axis ↓ | Period Axis → | 12 mo. ended
Dec 31 2013 |
Dec 31, 2012 |
---|---|---|---|
Primary Axis ↓ | |||
Line Items: | |||
Revenue: | |||
Assets: | |||
ABC Subsidiary | |||
ABC Subsidiary | Line Items: | ||
ABC Subsidiary | Revenue: | ||
ABC Subsidiary | Assets: |
A warning is issued when the nesting of axes cannot be determined (see 6.26.6).
