with or w/out the -ed

I would like to know whether to use the word "detail" or "detailed".

My sentence is: "This document contains all quarter activity on your account, at a detail level."

I am inclined to use "detail" rather than "detailed", as I'm describing the level of information the reader can expect to see, rather than how the information is presented.  

Or have I thought myself into a corner? Emotion: smile

Neither is wrong, but I suggest this. "This document (say statement? "
