Hitachi XBRL Controller
Internal Reporting Applications and Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance

Hitachi XBRL Controller is a server-based product suite for internal reporting applications, accounting integration, and Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance. At the heart of the Controller is the XBRL-GL data integration solution: XiRUTE Journalizing Engine. Today's Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) are best suited to this solution.

XiRUTE Journalizing Engine

XiRUTE Journalizing Engine is a server-based software that uses XBRL-GL as a common API to facilitate data exchanges between internal data stores, business application systems, and accounting / financial systems. The XiRUTE Journalizing Engine can work with all legacy systems, whether they are running on mainframes, minicomputers, UNIX servers, or Windows-based PC servers. To extract data from legacy systems, Hitachi works with end users to develop custom add-on logic for the XiRUTE Journalizing Engine.

It consists of an XBRL Data Object Model (DOM) engine with Java API’s; the use of XBRL DOM objects masks the complexity of processing XBRL documents.

HBRP is designed to run on J2EE compliant Application Servers or in standalone mode.

Easy-to-use XiRUTE Library for Microsoft .NET requires little XBRL and XML development knowledge and includes a Basic Module, Converter Module, Validation Module, and Viewing Module.
