Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Business	Business Our Company Alteryx, Inc. and its subsidiaries, or we, our, or us, are improving business through data science and analytics by enabling analytic producers, regardless of technical acumen, to quickly and easily transform data into actionable insights and deliver improved data-driven business outcomes. Every day, our users leverage our end-to-end analytic platform to quickly and easily discover, access, prepare, and analyze data from a multitude of sources, then deploy and share analytics at scale. The ease-of-use, speed, and sophistication that our platform provides is enhanced through intuitive and highly repeatable visual workflows. Basis of Presentation Our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP, for interim financial information. Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on March 1, 2019. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with that used to prepare the audited annual consolidated financial statements and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of our management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair statement of the condensed consolidated financial statements. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. We adopted Accounting Standards Codification, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , or ASC 606, effective January 1, 2018 on a modified retrospective basis during the fourth quarter of 2018 for our annual reporting period for the year ended December 31, 2018. As a result, the quarterly financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 have been recast to reflect the adoption of ASC 606. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year ending December 31, 2019 .

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies	Significant Accounting Policies There have been no changes to our accounting policies disclosed in our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the year ended December 31, 2018 other than, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, we adopted new accounting guidance related to leases. See Leases and Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements below and Note 9, Leases , for additional information. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. On an ongoing basis, our management evaluates estimates and assumptions based on historical data and experience, as well as various other factors that our management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Operating Segments Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or CODM, who is our chief executive officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess our financial and operational performance. Our CODM evaluates our financial information and resources and assesses the performance of these resources on a consolidated and aggregated basis. As a result, we have determined that our business operates in a single operating segment. Leases Through December 31, 2018, we recognized rent expense related to operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term and, accordingly, recorded the difference between rent payments and rent expense as a deferred rent liability. Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2016-02, Leases , or ASC 842. See Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements below. Under ASC 842, we determine if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, other current liabilities and operating lease liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease charges are recorded in operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. We do not separate lease and non-lease components for all underlying asset classes. As most of our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate, we estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. We determine our incremental borrowing rate for each lease based primarily on the lease term and the economic environment of the applicable country or region. The operating lease right-of-use asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The lease term includes options to extend or terminate when we are reasonably certain the option will be exercised. In general, we are not reasonably certain to exercise such options. We recognize lease expense for minimum lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term, while variable lease payments, such as common area maintenance, are recognized as incurred. We elected the practical expedient to not recognize operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities that arise from short-term leases (i.e., leases with a term of 12 months or less). Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU 2016-02, codified as ASC 842, which requires lessees to record the assets and liabilities arising from all leases, with the exception of short-term leases, in the statement of financial position. Under ASC 842, lessees will recognize a liability for lease payments and a right-of-use asset. This guidance retains the distinction between finance leases and operating leases and the classification criteria remain similar. For financing leases, a lessee will recognize the interest on a lease liability separate from amortization of the right-of-use asset. In addition, repayments of principal will be presented within financing activities, and interest payments will be presented within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. For operating leases, a lessee will recognize a single lease cost on a straight-line basis and classify all cash payments within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. We adopted the new lease accounting standard effective January 1, 2019 using the optional transition method described in ASU 2018-11, Leases – Targeted Improvements , which was issued in July 2018. Under the optional transition method, we recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance as an adjustment to the operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet on January 1, 2019 in the amount of $24.8 million without retrospective application to comparative periods. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have an impact on retained earnings on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019 and is not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard which allowed us to carry forward our historical assessments of whether contracts are or contain leases, lease classification and initial direct costs. See Note 9, Leases , for additional details. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . The new standard amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology. As a result, we will be required to use a forward-looking expected credit loss model for accounts receivables and other commitments to extend credit. This pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. We are evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. This guidance will be effective for us for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those annual periods and can be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs after the date of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue	Revenues Disaggregation of Revenue The disaggregation of revenue by region, type of performance obligation, and timing of revenue recognition was as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Revenue by type region: United States $ 57,782 $ 36,157 $ 110,678 $ 71,439 International 24,261 15,345 47,385 30,392 Total $ 82,043 $ 51,502 $ 158,063 $ 101,831 Revenue by type of performance obligation: Subscription-based software license $ 36,841 $ 21,484 $ 71,649 $ 43,959 PCS and services 45,202 30,018 86,414 57,872 Total $ 82,043 $ 51,502 $ 158,063 $ 101,831 Cost of revenue by type of performance obligation: Subscription-based software license $ 1,073 $ 519 $ 1,848 $ 1,126 PCS and services 8,222 4,750 15,447 9,147 Total $ 9,295 $ 5,269 $ 17,295 $ 10,273 Revenue attributable to the United Kingdom comprised 10.1% of total revenue for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 . Other than the United Kingdom during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, no other countries outside the United States comprised more than 10% of revenue for any of the periods presented. Our operations outside the United States include sales offices in Australia, Canada, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Japan, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom, and a research and development center in Ukraine and the Czech Republic. Revenue by location is determined by the billing address of the customer. Revenue recognized on our subscription-based software licenses is recognized at a point in time when the platform is first made available to the customer, or the beginning of the subscription term, if later. Revenue recognized related to post-contract support, or PCS, service, and hosted services is recognized ratably over the subscription term, with the exception of professional services related to training services. Revenue related to professional services is recognized at a point in time as the services are performed, and represents 5% or less of total revenue for all periods presented. Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities Timing may differ between the satisfaction of performance obligations and the invoicing and collection of amounts related to our contracts with customers. Contract assets primarily relate to unbilled amounts for contracts with customers for which the amount of revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer. Contract assets are transferred to accounts receivable when the right to invoice becomes unconditional. Contract liabilities, or deferred revenue, are recorded for amounts that are collected in advance of the satisfaction of performance obligations. These liabilities are classified as current and non-current deferred revenue. As of June 30, 2019 , our contract assets are expected to be transferred to receivables within the next 12 to 24 months and, with respect to these contract assets, $13.1 million is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $25.5 million is included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2018, we had contract assets of $11.2 million included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and $16.5 million included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. There were no impairments of contract assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 . During the six months ended June 30, 2019 , we recognized $58.0 million of revenue related to amounts that were included in deferred revenue as of January 1, 2019. Assets Recognized from the Costs to Obtain our Contracts with Customers We recognize an asset for the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer if we expect the benefit of those costs to be longer than one year. We amortize these deferred costs proportionate with related revenues over the benefit period. A summary of the activity impacting our deferred contract costs during the six months ended June 30, 2019 is presented below (in thousands): Balances at December 31, 2018 $ 22,391 Additional contract costs deferred 13,440 Amortization of deferred contract costs (11,612 ) Balances at June 30, 2019 $ 24,219 As of June 30, 2019 , $ 11.3 million of our deferred contract costs are expected to be amortized within the next 12 months and therefore are included in other current assets. The remaining amount of our deferred contract costs are included in other long-term assets. There were no impairments of assets related to deferred contract costs during the six months ended June 30, 2019 . There were no assets recognized related to the costs to fulfill contracts during the six months ended June 30, 2019 as these costs were not material. Remaining Performance Obligations As of June 30, 2019 , we had an aggregate transaction price of $ 238.8 million, allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations related primarily to PCS, cloud-based offerings, and subscriptions to third-party syndicated data. We expect to recognize $ 181.3 million as revenue through the period ending December 31, 2020, with the remaining amount recognized thereafter.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Business Combinations	Business Combinations On April 4, 2019, we acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of ClearStory Data Inc., a Delaware corporation, or ClearStory Data, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, or the Merger Agreement, dated as of March 28, 2019. The acquisition was made to augment our research and development team and acquire certain developed technology. The aggregate consideration payable in exchange for all of the outstanding equity interests of ClearStory Data was $19.6 million in cash, subject to customary adjustments set forth in the Merger Agreement. The acquisition of ClearStory Data included $3.0 million of cash consideration held back for customary indemnification matters for a period of 18 months following the acquisition date, which is included in other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2019. We incurred $1.2 million of acquisition-related costs, which are included in general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2019. In connection with the acquisition, we entered into employment agreements with certain employees from ClearStory Data, which include up to $6.0 million in aggregate cash payments based on the achievement of certain milestones over a period of 24 months . As the consideration is subject to the continued employment of the employees, it was excluded from the purchase consideration, and will be recognized as post-acquisition compensation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of ClearStory Data commencing as of the acquisition date. The purchase consideration for the acquisition of $19.6 million consisted of $10.7 million in completed technology, $9.5 million of goodwill, which is tax deductible, and $0.6 million of net liabilities assumed. The values assigned to the assets and liabilities assumed are based on preliminary estimates of fair value as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and may be adjusted during the measurement period of up to 12 months from the date of acquisition as further information becomes available. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price consideration over the fair value of the underlying intangible assets and net liabilities assumed. We believe the amount of goodwill resulting from the acquisition is primarily attributable to expected synergies from an assembled workforce, increased development capabilities, offerings to customers, and enhanced opportunities for growth and innovation. We determined the fair value of the developed technology acquired using the replacement cost method which uses estimated costs to recreate the technology. This model utilizes certain unobservable inputs classified as Level 3 measurements as defined by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures . Key inputs utilized in the models include a discount rate of 20% and estimated costs to recreate the technology. Based on the valuation model, we determined the fair value of the developed technology to be $10.7 million with an amortization period of 4.0 years . Pro forma information and revenue and operating results of ClearStory Data have not been presented as the impact is not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Convertible Senior Notes	Convertible Senior Notes In May and June 2018, we sold $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 0.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023, or the convertible senior notes, including the initial purchasers’ exercise in full of their option to purchase an additional $30.0 million of the convertible senior notes, in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Act. The convertible senior notes are our senior, unsecured obligations, and interest of 0.50% per year is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year beginning December 1, 2018. The convertible senior notes will mature on June 1, 2023, unless repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding March 1, 2023, the convertible senior notes are convertible at the option of holders only upon satisfaction of certain conditions and during certain periods, and thereafter, at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. The convertible senior notes have an initial conversion rate of 22.5572 shares of our Class A common stock per $1,000 principal amount of convertible senior notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $44.33 per share of Class A common stock. The conversion rate is subject to customary adjustments for certain events as described in the indenture between us and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, or the Indenture. Upon conversion, the convertible senior notes may be settled in shares of our Class A common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of our Class A common stock, at our election. It is our current intent to settle the principal amount of the convertible senior notes with cash. As of June 30, 2019 , the if-converted value of the convertible senior notes exceeded its principal amount by $336.1 million . Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding March 1, 2023, the convertible senior notes are convertible at the option of the holders under the following circumstances: • during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2018 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Class A common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price of the convertible senior notes on each applicable trading day; • during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of convertible senior notes for each day of that ten day consecutive trading day period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our Class A common stock and the conversion rate of the convertible senior notes on such trading day; or • upon the occurrence of specified corporate events described in the Indenture. For at least 20 trading days during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending June 28, 2019, the last reported sale price of our Class A common stock was greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price of the convertible senior notes on each applicable trading day. As a result, the convertible senior notes are convertible at the option of the holders during the quarter ending September 30, 2019 and were classified as current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019. As of the date of this filing, none of the holders of the convertible senior notes have submitted requests for conversion. The convertible senior notes consisted of the following (in thousands): As of June 30, 2019 As of December 31, 2018 Liability: Principal $ 230,000 $ 230,000 Less: debt discount and issuance costs, net of amortization (50,840 ) (56,353 ) Net carrying amount $ 179,160 $ 173,647 Equity, net of issuance costs $ 57,251 $ 57,251 The following table sets forth interest expense recognized related to the convertible senior notes (in thousands, except effective interest rate): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Contractual interest expense $ 288 $ 137 $ 575 $ 137 Amortization of debt issuance costs and discount 2,814 1,261 5,513 1,261 Total $ 3,102 $ 1,398 $ 6,088 $ 1,398 Effective interest rate of the liability component 7.00 % 7.00 % 7.00 % 7.00 % Capped Call In connection with the pricing of the convertible senior notes, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with an affiliate of one of the initial purchasers of the convertible senior notes and other financial institutions. The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce or offset potential dilution to holders of our common stock and/or offset the potential cash payments that we could be required to make in excess of the principal amount upon any conversion of the convertible senior notes under certain circumstances, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap based on the cap price. Under the capped call transactions, we purchased capped call options that in the aggregate relate to the total number of shares of our Class A common stock underlying the convertible senior notes, with an initial strike price of approximately $44.33 per share, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the convertible senior notes and is subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the conversion rate of the convertible senior notes, and have a cap price of $62.22 per share. The cost of the purchased capped calls of $19.1 million was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in-capital in our condensed consolidated balance sheet during the three months ended June 30, 2018. We elected to integrate the capped call options with the convertible senior notes for federal income tax purposes pursuant to applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations. Accordingly, the $19.1 million gross cost of the purchased capped calls will be deductible for income tax purposes as original discount interest over the term of the convertible senior notes. We recorded a deferred tax asset of $4.6 million , which represents the tax benefit of these deductions with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital.

We account for the tax effects of discrete events in the interim period they occur. The provision for income taxes consists of federal, foreign, state, and local income taxes. Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory U.S. income tax rate due to the effect of state and local income taxes, differing tax rates imposed on income earned in foreign jurisdictions and in the United States, losses in foreign jurisdictions, certain nondeductible expenses, excess tax deductions, and the changes in valuation allowances against our deferred tax assets. Our effective tax rate could change significantly from quarter to quarter because of recurring and nonrecurring factors. The benefit of income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to discrete tax benefits of $14.1 million related to excess tax deductions from settled stock options and RSUs. Neither we nor any of our subsidiaries are currently under examination from tax authorities in the jurisdictions in which we do business.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation Our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP, for interim financial information. Certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on March 1, 2019. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with that used to prepare the audited annual consolidated financial statements and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of our management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair statement of the condensed consolidated financial statements. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. We adopted Accounting Standards Codification, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , or ASC 606, effective January 1, 2018 on a modified retrospective basis during the fourth quarter of 2018 for our annual reporting period for the year ended December 31, 2018. As a result, the quarterly financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 have been recast to reflect the adoption of ASC 606. The operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year ending December 31, 2019 .
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. On an ongoing basis, our management evaluates estimates and assumptions based on historical data and experience, as well as various other factors that our management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities.
Operating Segments	Operating Segments Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or CODM, who is our chief executive officer, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess our financial and operational performance. Our CODM evaluates our financial information and resources and assesses the performance of these resources on a consolidated and aggregated basis. As a result, we have determined that our business operates in a single operating segment.
Leases	Leases Through December 31, 2018, we recognized rent expense related to operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term and, accordingly, recorded the difference between rent payments and rent expense as a deferred rent liability. Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, 2016-02, Leases , or ASC 842. See Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements below. Under ASC 842, we determine if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, other current liabilities and operating lease liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease charges are recorded in operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. We do not separate lease and non-lease components for all underlying asset classes. As most of our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate, we estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. We determine our incremental borrowing rate for each lease based primarily on the lease term and the economic environment of the applicable country or region. The operating lease right-of-use asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The lease term includes options to extend or terminate when we are reasonably certain the option will be exercised. In general, we are not reasonably certain to exercise such options. We recognize lease expense for minimum lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term, while variable lease payments, such as common area maintenance, are recognized as incurred. We elected the practical expedient to not recognize operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities that arise from short-term leases (i.e., leases with a term of 12 months or less).
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU 2016-02, codified as ASC 842, which requires lessees to record the assets and liabilities arising from all leases, with the exception of short-term leases, in the statement of financial position. Under ASC 842, lessees will recognize a liability for lease payments and a right-of-use asset. This guidance retains the distinction between finance leases and operating leases and the classification criteria remain similar. For financing leases, a lessee will recognize the interest on a lease liability separate from amortization of the right-of-use asset. In addition, repayments of principal will be presented within financing activities, and interest payments will be presented within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. For operating leases, a lessee will recognize a single lease cost on a straight-line basis and classify all cash payments within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. We adopted the new lease accounting standard effective January 1, 2019 using the optional transition method described in ASU 2018-11, Leases – Targeted Improvements , which was issued in July 2018. Under the optional transition method, we recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance as an adjustment to the operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet on January 1, 2019 in the amount of $24.8 million without retrospective application to comparative periods. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have an impact on retained earnings on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019 and is not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard which allowed us to carry forward our historical assessments of whether contracts are or contain leases, lease classification and initial direct costs. See Note 9, Leases , for additional details. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments . The new standard amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the currently used incurred loss methodology. As a result, we will be required to use a forward-looking expected credit loss model for accounts receivables and other commitments to extend credit. This pronouncement is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. We are evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. This guidance will be effective for us for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those annual periods and can be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs after the date of adoption. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
Income Taxes	We account for income taxes according to ASC 740, which, among other things, requires that we estimate our annual effective income tax rate for the full year and apply it to pre-tax income (loss) for each interim period, taking into account year-to-date amounts and projected results for the full year. We account for the tax effects of discrete events in the interim period they occur. The provision for income taxes consists of federal, foreign, state, and local income taxes. Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory U.S. income tax rate due to the effect of state and local income taxes, differing tax rates imposed on income earned in foreign jurisdictions and in the United States, losses in foreign jurisdictions, certain nondeductible expenses, excess tax deductions, and the changes in valuation allowances against our deferred tax assets. Our effective tax rate could change significantly from quarter to quarter because of recurring and nonrecurring factors. The benefit of income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to discrete tax benefits of $14.1 million
