	Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The following hierarchy prioritizes the inputs (generally, assumptions that market participants use in pricing an asset or liability) used to measure fair value based on the quality and reliability of the information provided by the inputs:
	•	Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. The Company considers active markets as those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
	•	Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data or other means.
	•	Level 3 - Measured based on prices or valuation models using unobservable inputs to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available (i.e., where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability).
	The following table provides information regarding the financial assets accounted for at fair value and the type of inputs used to value the assets:
	(in thousands)		Level 1		Level 2		Total
	Balance, September 30, 2013:

	At September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, the Company’s investments were recognized at fair value determined based upon observable input information provided by the Company’s pricing service vendors for identical or similar assets. For these investments, cost approximated fair value. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not hold any level 3 investments or recognize any gains or losses on its investments.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS	GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
	During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company determined, based on its assessment of qualitative factors as of July 1, 2013, the date of the annual goodwill impairment test, that none of its reporting units met the “more likely than not” threshold (i.e. it is more likely than not that the fair values of the Company’s reporting units are less than their respective carrying values) that would require the Company to perform the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test. Accordingly, the Company did not perform any further analysis. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the increase in goodwill of approximately $14.8 million was due to foreign currency changes.
	On July 1, 2013, the Company's annual impairment analysis date, the Company adopted revised guidance on how an entity tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. Under the new guidance, an entity is no longer required to calculate the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets and perform the quantitative impairment test unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company determined, based on its assessment of qualitative factors as of July 1, 2013, that its indefinite-lived intangible trademarks did not meet the "more likely than not" threshold requiring that the Company calculate fair value of its indefinite-lived trademarks. Accordingly, the Company did not perform any further analysis.
	Subsequent to the annual impairment analysis date of July 1, 2013, there have been no events or circumstances that caused the Company to determine that it is more likely than not that the fair values of the Company’s reporting units are less than their respective carrying values. Subsequent to July 1, 2013, there have been no events or circumstances that caused the Company to determine that it is more likely than not that its indefinite-lived trademarks have been impaired.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
CREDIT AGREEMENTS	CREDIT AGREEMENTS
	The Company had two credit agreements (the “Credit Agreements”) that expired on September 30, 2013. The Credit Agreements provided an aggregate $50.0 million multi-currency committed line of credit. The international facility was secured by 65% of the capital stock of the Company’s main operating Ireland subsidiary and 100% of the capital stock of all of the remaining major foreign subsidiaries. The U.S. facility was secured by 100% of the capital stock of a number of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries as well as inventory and receivables located in the U.S.
	For borrowings in U.S. currency, the interest rate under the Credit Agreements was equal to the higher of the federal funds rate plus 50 basis points or the prime rate. For borrowings in foreign currencies, the interest rate was determined by a LIBOR-based formula, plus an additional margin of 125 to 200 basis points, depending upon the Company’s consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the immediately preceding four calendar quarters. Under the terms of the Credit Agreements, the Company was required to pay to the lenders insignificant commitment fees on the unused portion of the line of credit. The Credit Agreements also contained certain financial covenants and restrictions on the Company’s ability to assume additional debt, repurchase stock, sell subsidiaries or acquire companies.
	On September 30, 2013, the expiration date of the Credit Agreements, the Company repaid the approximately $1.8 million outstanding under the Credit Agreements.
	The Company also has a credit relationship with a European bank in the amount of EUR 1.0 million (approximately $1.4 million at the September 30, 2013 exchange rate). Under the terms of this facility, the Company may borrow in the form of either a line of credit or term debt. As of September 30, 2013, there were no balances outstanding on this credit facility, but approximately EUR 0.4 million (approximately $0.6 million at the September 30, 2013 exchange rate) of the credit facility has been used for guarantees. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had a borrowing capacity of approximately EUR 0.6 million (approximately $0.8 million at the September 30, 2013 exchange rate) available under this credit facility.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES
	The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was 38.8% and 24.0%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2013 is more than the 35% U.S. statutory federal income tax rate for corporations primarily due to the effects of the reduction in the U.K. tax rate (described below) partially offset by decreases in taxes due to earnings in jurisdictions which have a lower rate than the U.S.
	The increase in effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the same period last year was primarily attributable to an increases resulting from the following:
	1) The changes in the uncertain tax positions increased the effective tax rate and income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 by 12.9% and approximately $6.9 million, respectively, as compared to the same period last year. This increase primarily reflected the tax benefit of the expiration of statutes of limitation recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2012.
	2) The effects of the reduction in the U.K. tax rate to 20% increased the effective tax rate and income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 by 4.6% and approximately $3.6 million, respectively, as compared to the same period last year. The rate reduction caused the effective tax rate to increase by reducing the carrying value of our U.K. deferred tax assets.
	The above increases were partially offset by a decrease in taxes due to changes in earnings mix among jurisdictions.
	The Company estimates that, within the next 12 months, its unrecognized income tax benefits will decrease by between approximately $2.8 million and approximately $4.8 million due to the expiration of statutes of limitations and expected settlements with tax authorities. However, audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty. Over the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that the Company’s tax positions will continue to generate liabilities related to uncertain tax positions.
	The Company currently has no plans to repatriate to the U.S. its cumulative unremitted foreign earnings, as it intends to permanently reinvest such earnings internationally. If the Company changes its strategy in the future and repatriates such funds, the amount of any taxes, which could be significant, and the application of any tax credits, would be determined based on the appropriate jurisdictional income tax laws at the time of such repatriation. Due to the extent of uncertainty as to which remittance structure would be used should a decision be made in the future to repatriate, the availability and the complexity of calculating foreign tax credits, and the implications of indirect taxes, including withholding taxes, determination of the unrecognized deferred income tax liability related to these unremitted earnings is not practicable.
	The Company’s income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by the U.S. tax authorities for tax years ending before June 2011, by the U.K. tax authorities for tax years ending before June 2010, by the German tax authorities for tax years ending before June 2006 and the Irish tax authorities for tax years ending before June 2009. Certain periods prior to these dates, however, could be subject to adjustment as a result of the competent authority process, or due to the impact of items such as carryback or carryforward claims.

	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
	On July 1, 2013, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") guidance on how an entity tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. Under the new guidance, an entity is no longer required to calculate the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets and perform the quantitative impairment test unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
	On July 1, 2013, the Company adopted FASB guidance on disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”). This new guidance requires entities to present (either on the face of the income statement or in the notes) the effects on the line items of the income statement for amounts reclassified out of AOCI. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
	Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
	In July 2013, the FASB issued guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The guidance requires that an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. However, to the extent that the deferred tax asset is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of the tax position, or if the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in its third fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2014, and will result only in presentation changes in the consolidated balance sheet.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
SEGMENT INFORMATION	SEGMENT INFORMATION
	The Company is organized and operates in four operating segments: U.S./Canada, Europe, the Pacific Rim, and Latin America regions. The Company has identified U.S./Canada as a separate reportable segment and has aggregated its three international operating segments into one reportable segment, International, as the three international operating segments share many similar economic characteristics. Management views the U.S./Canada and International segments separately in operating its business, although the products and services are similar for each segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.
	Historically, all of the Company’s new business acquisitions have been integrated into the existing operating segments, based on their respective geographic locations, and are subsequently operated and managed as part of that operating segment.
	A summary of certain financial information regarding the Company’s reportable segments is set forth below:

	On May 22, 2008, a jury returned verdicts against the Company in the consolidated actions of Roth Cash Register v. MICROS Systems, Inc., et al. (the “Roth Matter”) and Shenango Systems Solutions v. MICROS Systems, Inc., et al. (the “Shenango Matter”). The cases initially were filed in 2000 in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. The complaints both related to the non-renewal of dealership agreements in the year 2000 between the Company and the respective plaintiffs. The agreements were non-renewed as part of a restructuring of the dealer channel. The plaintiffs alleged that the Company and certain of its subsidiaries and employees entered into a plan to eliminate the plaintiffs as authorized dealers and improperly interfere with the plaintiffs' relationships with their respective existing and potential future clients and customers without compensation to the plaintiffs. The plaintiffs claimed that, as a result, the Company was liable for, among other things, breach of contract and tortious interference with existing and prospective contractual relationships. In May 2008, the jury returned verdicts against the Company totaling $7.5 million. Both parties appealed the original verdicts on various grounds. On December 30, 2010, the Superior Court of Pennsylvania reversed and remanded the trial court judgment as to $4.5 million of the award and affirmed the trial court judgment as to the remaining $3.0 million of the award. Following the denial of appeals of the Superior Court decision by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court on April 10, 2012, the Company accrued a charge of $3.0 million in its selling, general and administrative expenses. The matter was subsequently remanded to the Court of Common Pleas (the trial court) for further proceedings consistent with the appellate decisions. On June 7, 2012, the Company paid an aggregate of approximately $3.5 million to the two plaintiffs, reflecting all amounts that were determined to be owed to the plaintiff in the Shenango Matter and all amounts that were no longer in dispute and that were payable to the plaintiff in the Roth Matter, including as to each payment (i) interest that had accrued at the statutory rate of 6% per annum, and (ii) certain reductions and offsets that were approved by the Court of Common Pleas. Upon the conclusion of the post-appeal proceedings in the trial court, the Court of Common Pleas entered an order amending the amount of the remaining portion of the judgment in favor of the plaintiff in the Roth Matter from $4.5 million to approximately $2.8 million. The Company appealed the amended judgment. On October 4, 2013, the Superior Court of Pennsylvania affirmed the amended judgment. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company accrued a charge of approximately $2.8 million in its selling, general and administrative expenses relating to the judgment. The Company has also recognized interest expense of approximately $0.9 million related to the judgment as the amount payable is subject to interest accruing at the statutory rate of 6% per annum. On October 21, 2013, the Company and the plaintiff in the Roth Matter entered into a settlement agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed that, among other things, the Company would pay $3.7 million as a full and final payment, and the case would then be fully and finally dismissed. On October 22, 2013, the Company paid the agreed amount.
	The Company is and has been involved in legal proceedings arising in the normal course of business, and the Company is of the opinion, based upon presently available information and the advice of counsel concerning pertinent legal matters, that any resulting liability should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. However, litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of litigation is not predictable with assurance. An adverse outcome in current or future litigation could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity.
