Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	'
	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
	Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“Financial Statements”) include the accounts of Covisint Corporation and subsidiaries, a Michigan corporation majority-owned by Compuware Corporation (“Compuware” or the “Parent”).

	The Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), for interim financial information and with the instructions of Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, contingencies and results of operations. While management has based its assumptions and estimates on the facts and circumstances existing at June 30, 2014, final amounts may differ from these estimates. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.

	The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date its financial statements were issued.

	These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Prior to April 1, 2014, the Compuware allocation was recorded within general and administrative expense. Effective April 1, 2014, the allocation was replaced with actual expenses and these have been recorded in each respective line item. Other than this allocation, there have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies as disclosed in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
	In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists.” The amendments in this ASU provide guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, similar tax loss, or tax credit carryforward exists. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company adopted this ASU effective April 1, 2014, and the adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)," a new comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The standard's core principle is that revenue should be recognized as goods or services are transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Entities will have the option of using either a full retrospective approach or a modified approach to adopt the guidance in the ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

	-1	The Covisint trademarks were acquired by Compuware in an acquisition in March 2004. These trademarks are deemed to have an indefinite life and therefore are not being amortized.

	-2	Amortization of capitalized software is included in “cost of revenue” in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Capitalized software is generally amortized over five years.

	-3	Amortization of customer relationship agreements is included in “sales and marketing” in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Customer relationship agreements were acquired as part of acquisitions and are being amortized over periods up to six years.

	-4	Amortization of trademarks is included in “general and administrative” in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Trademarks were acquired as part of acquisitions and are being amortized over three years.

	Amortization expense of intangible assets was $1.8 million and $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Estimated future amortization expense, based on identified intangible assets at June 30, 2014, is expected to be as follows (in thousands):

	EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
	Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS assumes the issuance of common stock for all potentially dilutive equivalent shares outstanding using the treasury method.
	EPS data were computed as follows (in thousands, except for per share data):

	Contractual Obligations

	The Company entered into standalone operating lease agreements for its Shanghai, China and Detroit locations in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2015. The Shanghai lease expires on April 30, 2017 and does not contain any purchase obligations associated with the lease. The total future minimum lease obligation of the Shanghai lease is approximately $1.5 million as of June 30, 2014. The lease agreement for the Company's Detroit location expires March 31, 2015.
	Legal Matters
	The Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims, investigations and proceedings in the ordinary course of business. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company makes a provision for a liability when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These provisions are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case.
	Beginning on May 30, 2014, two putative class actions were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company, directors and certain officers at the time of the Company's initial public offering ("IPO") alleging violation of securities laws in connection with the Company's IPO and seeking unspecified damages. We believe these lawsuits are without merit, and we intend to vigorously defend them. The Company currently has no other outstanding material litigation.

	Options exercisable as of June 30, 2014	279				$8.90		1.23			$357

	The vesting schedule of options has varied over the years with the following vesting terms being the most common: (1) 50 percent of shares vest on the third anniversary date and 25 percent on the fourth and fifth anniversary dates; (2) 25 percent of shares vest on each annual anniversary date over four years; or (3) 30 percent of shares vest on the first and second anniversary dates and 40 percent vest on the third anniversary date.
	All options were granted with exercise prices at or above fair market value on the date of grant and expire ten years from the date of grant. Option expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period unless the options vest more quickly than the expense would be recognized. In this case, additional expense is taken to ensure the expense is proportionate to the percent of options vested at any point in time.
	During the three months ended June 30, 2014, 1,376 Compuware option shares granted to Covisint employees vested, with an average fair value of $8.63 per share.
	Compuware Restricted Stock Units
	A summary of non-vested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) activity for Covisint employees and directors under the Compuware LTIP as of June 30, 2014, and changes during the three months then ended is presented below. Shares and intrinsic value are presented in thousands.



		Three Months Ended June 30, 2014

	Forfeited	(4	)
	Dividend equivalents, net	1				$9.74

	Non-vested RSU outstanding at June 30, 2014	147


	RSUs have various vesting terms related to the purpose of the award. The most common vesting term is 25 percent of shares vest on each annual anniversary date over four years.
	The awards are settled by the issuance of one common share of Compuware stock for each unit upon vesting and vesting accelerates upon death, disability or a change in control of Compuware.
	Compuware paid quarterly dividends of $0.125 per share. As a result of these dividend payments, approximately 967 dividend equivalent shares were issued to participants holding non-vested RSUs as of the dividend record date during the three months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.
	Covisint 401(k) Plan
	The Company matches 33 percent of employees’ 401(k) contributions up to 2 percent of eligible earnings. Matching contributions vest 100 percent when an employee attains one year of service. During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company expensed $0.2 million and $0.2 million related to this program.
	Covisint Stock-Based Compensation Plan
	In August 2009, Covisint established a 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2009 Covisint LTIP”) allowing the Board of Directors of Covisint to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance-based cash or restricted stock unit awards and annual cash incentive awards to employees and directors of Covisint and its affiliates. The 2009 Covisint LTIP reserves 4.5 million common shares of Covisint for issuance under this plan. On December 30, 2013, the Board of Directors of Covisint Corporation adopted the First Amendment to the 2009 Covisint LTIP, subject to shareholder approval. The Amendment increased the number of shares of Covisint’s common stock available for issuance pursuant to stock-based awards granted under the LTIP by 3 million shares (increasing the number of shares available for issuance under the LTIP from 4.5 million to 7.5 million). On January 2, 2014, Compuware, as holder of the majority of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, approved the Amendment to increase the shares available. The increase in shares set forth in the Amendment became effective on February 13, 2014, twenty (20) days after the date of mailing of the Company’s Schedule 14C Information Statement to the Company's shareholders.
	As of June 30, 2014, there were 4.4 million stock options outstanding from the 2009 Covisint LTIP. The Company recognized stock compensation expense of $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014.
Certain individuals, who received stock options from the 2009 Covisint LTIP, were also eligible to be awarded performance-based stock awards (“PSAs”) from the Compuware 2007 LTIP. As of June 30, 2013, there were 631,000 PSAs that were cancelled upon the closing of the Covisint IPO. PSA expense totaling $0.2 was recorded to “general and administrative” during the three months ended June 30, 2013. As the PSAs were cancelled upon IPO, no expense was recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2014.

Options expire 10 years from the date of grant unless expiration has been otherwise accelerated in accordance with a termination and/or separation agreement.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2014, 110,519 options were exercised by participants of the 2009 Covisint LTIP.
Stock Awards Compensation
For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, stock awards compensation expense was recorded as follows in thousands:




	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2014				2013
Stock awards compensation classified as:
Cost of revenue		$515				$5

Research and development	66				47

Sales and marketing	605				47

General and administrative	1,432				387

Total stock awards compensation expense before income taxes		$2,618				$486


Total stock awards compensation expense before income taxes of $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, is comprised of $1.5 million of stock compensation expense according to the normal expense recognition schedule of the grant and $1.1 million of expense recognized due to employee terminations, which, pursuant to the terms of these options, accelerated vesting.

As of June 30, 2014, total unrecognized compensation cost of $5.5 million, net of estimated forfeitures, related to nonvested equity awards granted is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.5 years. The following table summarizes the Company’s future recognition of its unrecognized compensation cost related to stock awards as of June 30, 2014 (in thousands).



	Year Ending March 31,
Stock-Based Compensation Plan:	Total				2015			2016				2017		2018

Covisint		$5,381				$2,761			$1,715				$543		$362

Compuware	156				30			89				37		—

Total		$5,537				$2,791			$1,804				$580		$362


In order for Compuware to retain over eighty percent (80%) ownership of Covisint common stock to qualify under the United States Internal Revenue Code Section 355 for a subsequent tax-free distribution of its shares in Covisint to Compuware shareholders, in early June 2014, (a) Covisint issued tandem stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) to its option holders who had options exercisable in 2014; and (b) Covisint and Compuware entered into a Purchase Agreement for Compuware to purchase from Covisint shares of Covisint common stock to fund Covisint’s cash outlay resulting from the exercise of the SARs. Due to Compuware's purchase of 1,381,920 shares of Covisint common stock in the open market during June 2014, Compuware owns sufficient shares of Covisint to maintain its ownership percentage despite the exercise of outstanding vested Covisint options. Accordingly, the tandem SARs were no longer necessary, and, on June 17, 2014, Covisint rescinded the tandem SARs granted to its option holders. On June 20, 2014, Compuware and Covisint agreed to terminate the Purchase Agreement, with a termination date of June 20, 2014.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS	'
	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
	The Company previously utilized professional services staff of Compuware to provide certain services to customers and to provide additional resources for research and development activities. These costs were included in “cost of revenue” and “research and development” as applicable. Effective January 31, 2014, Compuware sold substantially all of the assets related to Compuware's Professional Services business unit to Marlin Equity Partners. As such, related party charges for professional services totaled $0.0 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

	Certain related party transactions are settled in cash and are reflected as due to or due from parent and affiliates within the condensed consolidated balance sheet. At June 30, 2014, the Company had a net receivable due from parent of $4.1 million as compared to a net receivable of $2.8 million at March 31, 2014. The activity in the three months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily comprised of Compuware's repayment of the ($2.8) million receivable as of March 31, 2014, and $4.2 million related to the required payment from Compuware for its use of the Company’s tax loss and other tax related attributes. This activity was partially offset by ($0.1) million due to miscellaneous intercompany activity, primarily working capital movements such as customer collections and vendor payments. Compuware is the lessor of the Company's Detroit real estate lease.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	Jun. 30, 2014
Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Basis of Presentation	'
	Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“Financial Statements”) include the accounts of Covisint Corporation and subsidiaries, a Michigan corporation majority-owned by Compuware Corporation (“Compuware” or the “Parent”).

	The Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), for interim financial information and with the instructions of Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, contingencies and results of operations. While management has based its assumptions and estimates on the facts and circumstances existing at June 30, 2014, final amounts may differ from these estimates. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.

	The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date its financial statements were issued.

	These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Prior to April 1, 2014, the Compuware allocation was recorded within general and administrative expense. Effective April 1, 2014, the allocation was replaced with actual expenses and these have been recorded in each respective line item. Other than this allocation, there have been no significant changes to the Company’s accounting policies as disclosed in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Revenue Recognition	'
Revenue Recognition	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)," a new comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The standard's core principle is that revenue should be recognized as goods or services are transferred to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Entities will have the option of using either a full retrospective approach or a modified approach to adopt the guidance in the ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
Income Taxes	'
Income Taxes	In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists.” The amendments in this ASU provide guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, similar tax loss, or tax credit carryforward exists. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company adopted this ASU effective April 1, 2014, and the adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.
