除了傳統財務報表資訊之外，企業財務報告中的附註資訊或是企業年報中 包含的非財務性資訊、文字性資訊等「開放式資訊」，可能也「隱藏」了許多 重要的企業資訊；然而，受限於資訊格式上的不一致，投資人必須透過繁瑣且 錯誤發生率較高的人工處理程序，才能使用或流通此類資訊。因此，本研究認 為應由資訊技術觀點，重新探討不同的企業報告資訊如何整合與塑模，以提升 企業報告的整體品質。本研究嘗試應用設計科學研究方法，定義一個「開放式 企業報告」資訊架構，再利用XBRL的「可尋獲的分類標準集合」技術將「開放 式企業報告」中所包含的重要資料項目與文字加以標記化、模組化，並以公開 發行公司各項企業報告資訊為案例，建置「開放式企業報告」所需之XBRL分 類標準與分析技術，以驗證本研究所提出之概念性架構。另一方面，為了證實 「XBRL格式化之開放性資訊」的相對優勢與用途，乃依據企業報告資訊品質 之相關研究與理論，提出四個研究假說，並利用一個單因子受試者間的實驗設 計，藉由研究發展出的「開放式企業報告」分類標準與案例文件等，於實驗室 進行各項假說之測試；實驗結果顯示，對於一般非專業使用者而言，無論是資 料的可靠性、可比較性、可取得性、攸關性與即時性等，可剖析、標準化與可 延伸定義的XBRL「開放式企業報告」資訊，均較傳統非格式化、無系統性之企 業報告具有較高的品質。

There exist a few problems with the current public-company’s information disclosure mechanisms. For example, due to the traditional close-designed framework, various types of business filings cannot be efficiently integrated to benefit information users. In addition, certain unparsable data format (e.g. PDF or HTML) leads to the unsearchable, unexchangeable and uninteroperable problems of data consumption. Therefore, using appropriate information technology (e.g. XBRL) to reconstruct the information disclosure mechanisms has drawn tremendous attention from market participants for over a decade. This paper uses the design science methodology to develop an “open-ended business report” framework. The framework adopts XBRL DTS technology that will allow owners of the business filings to integrate financial, non-financial reports more flexibly and provide higher search / analytical ability while dealing with either formatted or unformatted data. On the other hand, to prove the proposed framework can increase the overall quality of business information, we conduct an experiment to test four hypotheses derived from related literatures. The experiment findings indicate the XBRL-based “open-ended” business report framework can significantly improve reliability, comparability, accessibility, relevance and timeliness of business information. The empirical results suggest the comparative advantages of proposed framework attribute to format parsability, format standardization and module extensibility of XBRL.
