Release Notes

09/05/2025 - ATOME:Matter is now Regnology Metadata Modeller

For the past few weeks, we worked on rebranding of ATOME:Matter to match other Regnology products look and feel. There is a new login screen following Regnology’s OneUI approach and recolouring of major components to match Regnology’s scheme. The new URL to access the platform will be constructed according to the following pattern: https://rsh-mm-{environment name}.regonology.net. All old links will remain valid and redirected. We are also working on integration of the platform with other Regnology products to provide our clients with new functionalities.

25/03/2025 - Updated front-end tech

For the past few weeks we have worked on updating the ATOME:Matter front-end to a recent version of technology applied there (Angular). We have tried our best to replicate all past behavior as it was, but you may notice a slightly different look and feel related to use of newer version of components (especially more spacious fields). Together with polishing this we will work on the better user experience so don’t be surprised with modified window panes, user entries, etc in the next releases. Please note that with this exercise no functionalities will be removed - we only hope to provide a better accessibility to existing features.

29/01/2025 - Matter at the heart of semantic metadata for Regnology products and recent updates to further support DPM 2.0 (EBA 4.0) and OIM-CSV

BR-AG has been acquired by Regnology, a global leader in the RegTech and SupTech markets. This strategic acquisition enriches Regnology’s SupTech offering with ATOME:Matter – our unique and only collaborative platform for data modelling and digital data standardisation that will become the sematic metadata hub for various existing and new products.

08/11/2024 - Enabling DPM 2.0

BR-AG has supported the EBA, ECB and EIOPA in development of the DPM 2.0. We are now working to make our solutions compliant with updates to the modelling methodology. In this release of ATOME:Matter users are enabled to assign Release to certain concepts, which is the bare minimum to enable working on the DPM 2.0 models while still being able to operate on models developed under DPM 1.0. We have adjusted DPM database import/export to understand the new versioning semantics and in the next updates on the platform we will extend it to other formats (XBRL export, XLS import/export, …).

30/07/2024 - Improvements to business rules definition, visual fixes and enhancements in various interoperability options

In this release users will find important improvements to the business rules definition process, that aim to eliminate certain common errors.

Firstly – before saving a rule a check is performed to confirm that variables are properly defined in terms of indicating all headers. User will be informed in case a variable is missing coordinates for row, column or closed z-axis.

22/05/2024 - Export of Annotate Templates with Tables gathered in Groups

ATOME:Matter enables serialising of the developed models to various formats. In addition to technical ones like XBRL or database dumps used by systems to support automated reporting, collection, and analysis of data, it also provides options to export entire model or its parts to Excel files. This helps sharing the model metadata with a wider group of stakeholders that do not have access to the platform. One of the commonly used for this purpose format is Excel file containing Annotate Templates, i.e. reporting tables with information on how they are assigned with the dictionary concepts. Until now, this export contained one table per worksheet, which for some larger models resulted in hundreds of worksheets. With this release users are enabled to take advantage of the Table grouping metadata and decide that all tables gathered by a Table group shall be included in the same worksheet. This may help in analysing annotations of tables grouped by topic they cover.

09/04/2024 - Improved DPM XBRL export

With this publication we release the new XBRL export engine. Until know Matter has employed a third-party component to produce DPM XBRL taxonomies. This black box prevented flexibility and optimisation. With the new code, developed entirely by BR-AG engineers, we are able to control the processes from end to end. This offers a lot of possibilities, of which some we already use:

20/03/2024 - Small improvements while waiting for bigger changes

There haven’t been many updates this year as we are fully focused on completing our major developments for the early 2024: the Simplified Table Builder – a first phase of easy and fast model creation functionality, and the new xBRL generation code that produces taxonomies much faster and enables further enhancements to this process and its results.

16/01/2024 - Improved logging on export/import of ITA models and several bugfixes.

In this release we are improving the logs verbosity on ITA model export/import making it easier to troubleshoot problematic exports and pinpoint modelling issues.

• Merging models – Modules were not correctly merged in some cases

19/12/2023 - Bugfixes and minor UI improvements

In this release we are removing “Reset” option from the list of sorting options in the Dictionary (defaulting it to Code, A-Z), adding colour legend to the duplicated DataPoints export outputs and fixing few minor bugs:

• No axis codes included in the DPM database export

05/12/2023 - Improved sorting of concepts in the Dictionary and new DB export option

We have improved A-Z sorting options of the concepts in the Dictionary in this release. They are now sorted in a more natural and humanly readable alphanumeric order instead of alphabetic. (as in x1,x2,x3,...,x9,x10,x11,x12,...,x19,x20,x21... vs old x1,x10,x11,x12,...,x19,x2,x20,x21,...,x29,x3,x30...)
We are also introducing a new DB export option that allows to export only Dictionary (leaving out all frameworks and their tables) and some minor bugfixes in the UI and versioning report.

22/11/2023 - Improved sorting on the Dictionary page and last login date export for admins

This release features the new sorting options on the Dictionary page: you can sort concepts by labels, codes or creation time (ascending or descending) in all four lists (Domains, Hierarchies, Dimensions and Members).

There is a new functionality in the organisation management popup that enables Admin users to export the list of users in the organisation including the last log in date for each of them.

24/10/2023 - Bugfixing release

This release addresses the following issues:

1. Improved logging when copying framework to another model (now logs contain meaningful information on missing dictionary elements)

10/10/2023 - New JoinDimensions function in the Business Rules and improved rule-to-module and rule-to-severity linking in XBRL outputs

This release features new ability to join a table variable based on dimension is now available (the feature was not released to end users in the previous release due to problems with handling typed dimensions) and improved rule-to-module and rule-to-severity linking in XBRL achieved by generating “deactivation” lists in the XBRL export.

17/08/2023 - Business Rules Expert Mode available in Excel and Extensible Enumeration Sets

With this release we introduce several new features:

1. Extensible Enumeration 2.0 (Enumeration Sets) data type is no introduced for ITA models - from now on, once you select “Enumeration” data type the system will also present you with an additional dropdown selection enabling you to choose the type of enumeration to apply (Enumeration 1.0, Enumeration 2.0 or Enumeration Set 2.0)

07/07/2023 - Multiple improvements for ITA-like models

There are multiple improvements to how Matter handles import and export of ITA models (support of UTR-related data types in the application, improved logging on import, option to remove presentation linkbase for hierarchies in exported XBRL and more). Also we’ve improved the Comparison functionality to improve performance on large models comparison.

21/06/2023 - Automatic Mapping of Fallback values on demand and new math functions and more

There are also few bugfixes to note:

13/04/2023 - Context menus in the navigation search results and new data types for ITA-like models

This release features overflow menus in the navigation panel search results, enabling you to perform operations on multiple model components without the need to navigate to them (e.g. manage permissions on multiple model versions or copy tables between framework versions). We are also introducing Volume and Weight data types for the models exercising ITA-like architecture as well as some bugfixes.

03/04/2023 - New Model Navigation

This release features complete redesign of the model navigation in the ATOME:Matter. Now all the dropdowns for navigation between various parts of the model are positioned on the left panel and navigation for the functional pages is rearranged to represent the logical model structure.
