New IXBRL (Accounts Filing) Test Validation Service is now Active

I can now advise that the new iXBRL accounts test service is now active – the URL Is as follows:

https://test-validator.companieshouse.gov.uk/xbrl_validate

The new service will allow the validation of both zip and single submission accounts, and image rendering of the latter, in a single service.

We have introduced this new service not only to combine the functionality of both the existing services, but to also ensure it sits within our new architecture and is able to handle larger zip files, which will feature as part of the wider accounts work, that we are developing.

Please note the previous validator link will be retired in the next few days.
