An instance covering a reporting period must contain a Required Context that is an xbrli:context having xbrli:startDate equal to 00:00:00 on the first day of the reporting period and xbrli:endDate equal to 24:00:00 on its last day. This rule defines "Required Context". For example, this rule applies to Form 10-Q filings for a company with a June 30, 2009 fiscal year end as follows: Many submissions require a second Required Context, see 6.5.21 below. Required contexts are distinguished by having no xbrli:segment elements. REMARK: The absence of required context will cause several other errors in section 6.5, this has a separate error code to help users identify the
root error of the cascade. REMARK: At this point there is only one distinction, between 485BPOS and 497 which require a one day duration, and all other filings having any
duration. At some point in the future this will be extended to include columns that indicate the allowable range of durations, for example:Required contexts
