Knows how linked data flows in Workiva: how a source value in a spreadsheet drives every linked figure in the filing, and how to trace a number back to its source Knows how to tie out a filing: footing, cross-footing, and agreeing statement and footnote figures to the trial balance and supporting schedules Knows how to judge XBRL/iXBRL tagging: standard US GAAP taxonomy element vs. custom extension, period and sign conventions, and dimensions Knows how to check disclosure completeness against Reg S-X and S-K requirements, not just whether a section exists Knows how review workflow works (tasks, comments, sign-offs, versions) and when a sign-off is stale because the underlying data changed Specialized depth (strong working knowledge in at least 2–3 of the following) 10-K, 10-Q, and 8-K preparation and EDGAR filing SOX 404 controls documentation, testing, and deficiency evaluation ESG and sustainability reporting (CSRD, ISSB, climate disclosures) Earnings releases and board or management reporting Rollforwards (equity, debt, PP&E, tax) and their linkage to the face statements Workiva administration: permissions, templates, data connections What you'll do Confirm a figure, tag, or disclosure in the filing is correct and traces back to its source, not just that it renders Catch broken or stale links, mis-tagged XBRL elements, sign or period errors, and edits made outside the scope of the request Judge completeness: when one number changes, are all affected statements, footnotes, and tags updated Distinguish "the document validates" from "this would survive SEC review or audit" Verify that a request that should be refused (editing a locked section, overriding a signed-off control without support) is refused rather than forced through
