Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) was enacted into law. The TCJA significantly reforms the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, including but not limited to reducing the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent and moving toward a territorial tax system with a one-time transition tax imposed on previously unremitted foreign earnings and profits. Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 (SAB 118) includes additional guidance allowing companies to use a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the TCJA enactment date to account for the impacts of the law in their financial statements. Effective in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company has completed its accounting for the income tax effects of the TCJA in accordance with SAB 118. There have been no material measurement period adjustments made during the six months ended January 31, 2019 from those amounts recorded and disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2018. If, in the future, Congress or the Department of Treasury provides legislative or regulatory updates, this could change the Company’s accounting for the TCJA in the period of the legislative or regulatory updates. The Company has made the accounting policy election to treat taxes related to the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI) provision of the TCJA as a current period expense when incurred. As of April 30, 2019, the gross unrecognized tax benefits were $19.3 million and accrued interest and penalties on these unrecognized tax benefits were $2.2 million. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. If the Company were to prevail on all unrecognized tax benefits recorded, substantially all of the unrecognized tax benefits would benefit the effective tax rate. With an average statute of limitations of approximately five years, up to $2.0 million of the unrecognized tax benefits could potentially expire in the next 12-month period, unless extended by an audit. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and foreign income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010. The United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has completed examinations of the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns through 2016. The Company protested certain IRS proposed material adjustments for fiscal years 2015 and 2016 and entered into the administrative appeals process with the IRS.
