Introduction

The Data Point Methodology provides a set of methodical procedures to create a multidimensional data point model that reflects detailed business aspects of supervisory frameworks. A data point model provides data structures represented in supervisory tables and underlying regulations that can be interpreted by IT applications. The document defines also requirements on this data structures that need to be fullfilled when using data point models (1) for generating data formats for the reporting process or (2) for designing multidimensional database structures for the analysis of supervisory data.

The document intend to support the communication between supervisory experts and IT experts by introducing the concept of data point modelling and its underlying terms.

This guidance is in the form of notes in association with the pertaining requirements clause and uses the terms “MUST” (strong recommendation), “SHOULD” (recommendation) and “MAY” (possibility). Organizations wishing to implement this CWA (CEN Workshop Agreement) would be expected to consider all recommendations where the terms "MUST" and “SHOULD” are used.

Objective

The following set of methodical precedures describe how business analysts prepare data structures on basis of supervisory regulations that can be communicated and understood by computers. The result of the application of these procedures is a data point model.

Target Audience

This document is being created to support Information Technology (IT) experts in the transfer of content from regulatory reporting to IT systems. It assumes that the reader has a working knowledge of the XBRL 2.1 and the XBRL Dimensions 1.0 Specifications as Data Point Models are being used as basis for generating XBRL taxonomies. Furthermore basic knowledge about Business Intelligence is assumed to understand the reules to be followed when designing multidimensional database structure for data warehouses.

Scope

The methodical procedures have been defined for the creation of data point models in the context of European supervisory reporting. Data Point Models are published by an European supervisory authority and accompanied by an XBRL taxonomy to reflect the defined data structures in a machine-readable form.
