Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation	A. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q 10-01 Regulation S-X. 10-K The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Note 1 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017 describes the significant accounting policies that we have used in preparing our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including but not limited to those related to revenue/vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”), capitalized software costs, goodwill, intangible assets, stock-based compensation, income taxes and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Software, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“American Software” or the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Common Share	D. Earnings Per Common Share We have two classes of common stock, of which Class B Common Shares are convertible into Class A Common Shares at any time, on a one-for-one “two-class” For our basic earnings per share calculation, we use the “two-class” The calculation of diluted earnings per share is similar to the calculation of basic earnings per share, except that the calculation includes the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of options issuable under our stock incentive plans. For our diluted earnings per share calculation for Class A Common Shares, we use the “if-converted” For our diluted earnings per share calculation for Class B Common Shares, we use the “two-class” The following tables set forth the computation of basic earnings per common share and diluted earnings per common share (in thousands except for per share amounts): Basic earnings per common share: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended Class A Class B Class A Class B Distributed earnings $ 0.11 $ 0.11 $ 0.22 $ 0.22 Undistributed losses (0.03 ) (0.03 ) (0.05 ) (0.05 ) Total $ 0.08 $ 0.08 $ 0.17 $ 0.17 Distributed earnings $ 3,064 $ 249 $ 6,078 $ 505 Undistributed losses (768 ) (65 ) (1,269 ) (109 ) Total $ 2,296 $ 184 $ 4,809 $ 396 Basic weighted average common shares outstanding 27,589 2,317 27,448 2,340 Three Months Ended Six Months Ended Class A Class B Class A Class B Distributed earnings $ 0.11 $ 0.11 $ 0.21 $ 0.21 Undistributed losses (0.10 ) (0.10 ) (0.14 ) (0.14 ) Total $ 0.01 $ 0.01 $ 0.07 $ 0.07 Distributed earnings $ 2,943 $ 268 $ 5,609 $ 511 Undistributed losses (2,565 ) (234 ) (3,680 ) (340 ) Total $ 378 $ 34 $ 1,929 $ 171 Basic weighted average common shares outstanding 26,703 2,432 26,580 2,457 Diluted EPS for Class A Common Shares Using the If-Converted Three Months Ended October 31, 2017 Undistributed Class A EPS* Per Basic $ 2,296 27,589 $ 0.08 Common Stock Equivalents — 323 — 2,296 27,912 0.08 Class B Conversion 184 2,317 — Diluted EPS for Class A Common Shares $ 2,480 30,229 $ 0.08 Six Months Ended October 31, 2017 Undistributed Class A EPS* Per Basic $ 4,809 27,448 $ 0.17 Common Stock Equivalents — 322 — 4,809 27,770 0.17 Class B Conversion 396 2,340 — Diluted EPS for Class A Common Shares $ 5,205 30,110 $ 0.17 Three Months Ended October 31, 2016 Undistributed Class A EPS Per Basic $ 378 26,703 $ 0.01 Common Stock Equivalents — 413 — 378 27,116 0.01 Class B Conversion 34 2,432 — Diluted EPS for Class A Common Shares $ 412 29,548 $ 0.01 Six Months Ended October 31, 2016 Undistributed Class A EPS Per Basic $ 1,929 26,580 $ 0.07 Common Stock Equivalents — 361 — 1,929 26,941 0.07 Class B Conversion 171 2,457 — Diluted EPS for Class A Common Shares $ 2,100 29,398 $ 0.07 Diluted EPS for Class B Common Shares Using the Two-Class Three Months Ended October 31, 2017 Undistributed Class B EPS* Per Basic $ 184 2,317 $ 0.08 Reallocation of undistributed earnings to Class A Common Shares from Class B Common Shares — — — Diluted EPS for Class B Common Shares $ 184 2,317 $ 0.08 Six Months Ended October 31, 2017 Undistributed Class B EPS* Per Basic $ 396 2,340 $ 0.17 Reallocation of undistributed earnings to Class B Common Shares from Class A Common Shares 1 — — Diluted EPS for Class B Common Shares $ 397 2,340 $ 0.17 Three Months Ended October 31, 2016 Undistributed Class B EPS Per Basic $ 34 2,432 $ 0.01 Reallocation of undistributed earnings to Class A Common Shares from Class B Common Shares 4 — — Diluted EPS for Class B Common Shares $ 38 2,432 $ 0.01 Six Months Ended October 31, 2016 Undistributed Class B EPS Per Basic $ 171 2,457 $ 0.07 Reallocation of undistributed earnings to Class A shares 5 — — Diluted EPS for Class B $ 176 2,457 $ 0.07 * Amounts adjusted for rounding For the three and six months ended October 31, 2017, we excluded options to purchase 1,184,124 and 1,105,521 Class A Common Shares, respectively, and for the three and six months ended October 31, 2016, we excluded options to purchase 345,891 and 302,628 Class A Common Shares, respectively, from the computation of diluted earnings per Class A Common Shares. We excluded these option share amounts because the exercise prices of those options were greater than the average market price of the Class A Common Shares during the applicable period. As of October 31, 2017, we had a total of 3,440,512 options outstanding and, as of October 31, 2016, we had a total of 3,517,317 options outstanding.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation	E. Stock-Based Compensation During the six months ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, we granted options to purchase 884,000 and 342,000 shares of common stock, respectively. We recorded stock option compensation cost of approximately $477,000 and $389,000 and related income tax benefits of approximately $137,000 and $145,000 during the three months ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. We recorded stock option compensation cost of approximately $793,000 and $778,000 and related income tax benefits of approximately $275,000 and $285,000 during the six months ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. We recorded stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period directly to additional paid-in-capital. During the six months ended October 31, 2017 and 2016, we issued 482,000 and 314,000 shares of common stock, respectively, resulting from the exercise of stock options. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the six months ended October 31, 2017 and 2016 based on market value at the exercise dates was approximately $1.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively. As of October 31, 2017, unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock option awards approximated $3.3 million, which we expect to recognize over a weighted average period of 1.79 years.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	F. Fair Value of Financial Instruments We measure our investments based on a fair value hierarchy disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring assets and liabilities at fair value. A number of factors affect market price observability, including the type of asset or liability and its characteristics. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows: • Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments. • Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. • Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. The following is a general description of the valuation methodologies we use for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value, including the general classification of such assets and liabilities pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. Cash Equivalents Marketable Securities The following tables present our assets and liabilities that we measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 31, 2017 and April 30, 2017, respectively, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques we used to determine such fair value (in thousands): October 31, 2017 Quoted Prices Significant Significant Balance Cash equivalents $ 56,832 $ — $ — $ 56,832 Marketable securities 11,298 18,475 — 29,773 Total $ 68,130 $ 18,475 $ — $ 86,605 April 30, 2017 Quoted Prices Significant Significant Balance Cash equivalents $ 62,647 $ — $ — $ 62,647 Marketable securities 8,984 14,803 — 23,787 Total $ 71,631 $ 14,803 $ — $ 86,434

Stock Repurchases	G. Stock Repurchases On August 19, 2002, our Board of Directors approved a resolution authorizing the repurchase of up to an additional 2.0 million shares of our Class A common stock. We have made and will make these repurchases through open market purchases at prevailing market prices. The timing of any repurchase will depend upon market conditions, the market price of our common stock and management’s assessment of our liquidity and cash flow needs. Under this repurchase plan, through October 31, 2017, we have repurchased 1,053,679 shares of common stock at a cost of approximately $6.2 million. As of October 31, 2017, under all repurchase plans previously authorized, including this most recent plan, we have repurchased a total of 4,588,632 shares of common stock at a cost of approximately $25.6 million.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Industry Segments	I. Industry Segments We provide our software solutions through three major business segments, which are further broken down into a total of four major product and service groups. The three business segments are (1) Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”), (2) Supply Chain Management (“SCM”), and (3) Information Technology (“IT”) Consulting. The ERP segment consists of (i) American Software ERP, which provides purchasing and materials management, customer order processing, financial, e-commerce 1 Our chief operating decision maker is the Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”). While the PEO is apprised of a variety of financial metrics and information, we manage our business primarily on a segment basis, with the PEO evaluating performance based upon segment operating profit or loss that includes an allocation of common expenses, but excludes certain unallocated expenses, which are included in the ERP segment. 1 All of our revenues are derived from external customers. We do not have any inter-segment revenue. Our income taxes and dividends are paid at a consolidated level. Consequently, it is not practical to show these items by operating segment. In the following table, we have broken down the intersegment transactions applicable to the three and six months ended October 31, 2017 and 2016: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2017 2016 2017 2016 Revenues: Enterprise Resource Planning $ 3,088 $ 2,757 $ 5,893 $ 5,765 Collaborative Supply Chain Management 18,653 18,125 38,364 37,536 IT Consulting 4,596 5,264 8,965 10,278 $ 26,337 $ 26,146 $ 53,222 $ 53,579 Operating income (loss) before intersegment eliminations: Enterprise Resource Planning $ (1,333 ) $ (1,614 ) $ (2,849 ) $ (3,029 ) Collaborative Supply Chain Management 4,218 2,164 9,121 5,016 IT Consulting 357 158 591 368 $ 3,242 $ 708 $ 6,863 $ 2,355 Intersegment eliminations: Enterprise Resource Planning $ (879 ) $ (880 ) $ (1,834 ) $ (1,759 ) Collaborative Supply Chain Management 885 897 1,840 1,792 IT Consulting (6 ) (17 ) (6 ) (33 ) $ — $ — $ — $ — Operating income (loss) after intersegment eliminations: Enterprise Resource Planning $ (2,212 ) $ (2,495 ) $ (4,683 ) $ (4,788 ) Collaborative Supply Chain Management 5,103 3,061 10,961 6,808 IT Consulting 351 142 585 335 $ 3,242 $ 708 $ 6,863 $ 2,355 Capital expenditures: Enterprise Resource Planning $ 23 $ 121 $ 138 $ 166 Collaborative Supply Chain Management 51 65 68 163 IT Consulting 4 — 6 — $ 78 $ 186 $ 212 $ 329 Capitalized software: Enterprise Resource Planning* $ — $ — $ — $ — Collaborative Supply Chain Management 1,330 969 2,617 1,606 IT Consulting — — — — $ 1,330 $ 969 $ 2,617 $ 1,606 Depreciation and amortization: Enterprise Resource Planning $ 55 $ 183 $ 111 $ 326 Collaborative Supply Chain Management 1,264 1,453 2,591 2,713 IT Consulting 2 2 3 4 $ 1,321 $ 1,638 $ 2,705 $ 3,043 Earnings (loss) before income taxes: Enterprise Resource Planning* $ (706 ) $ (1,743 ) $ (1,785 ) $ (2,471 ) Collaborative Supply Chain Management 4,267 2,126 9,332 4,951 IT Consulting 357 158 591 368 $ 3,918 $ 541 $ 8,138 $ 2,848 * includes certain unallocated expenses.

Contingencies We more often than not indemnify our customers against damages and costs resulting from claims of patent, copyright or trademark infringement associated with use of our products. We have historically not been required to make any payments under such indemnifications. However, we continue to monitor the conditions that are subject to the indemnifications to identify whether it is probable that a loss has occurred, and would recognize any such losses under the indemnifications when those losses are estimable. In addition, we warrant to our customers that our products operate substantially in accordance with the software products’ specifications. Historically, we have incurred no costs related to software product warranties and we do not expect to incur such costs in the future, and as such we have made no accruals for software product warranty costs. Additionally, we are involved in various claims arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Event	K. Subsequent Event On November 15, 2017, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.11 per share of our Class A and Class B Common Stock. The cash dividend is payable on February 23, 2018 to Class A and Class B shareholders of record at the close of business on February 9, 2018. Effective November 21, 2017, the Company acquired certain assets of privately held Halo Business Intelligence (“Halo”), a California corporation and a supplier of advanced analytics and business intelligence solutions, for the supply chain market, pursuant to the terms of an asset purchase agreement, dated as of November 21, 2017 (the “Purchase Agreement”). Halo’s advanced analytics will be embedded into the Logility Voyager Solutions advanced analytics platform. These enriched analytics will leverage interactive visualization, machine learning algorithms, and artificial intelligence (AI) to transform both structured and unstructured data to accelerate business planning performance and proactively identify new business opportunities or mitigate risks. Customers on the DMI and NGC platforms will be able to add pre-packaged Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired the assets for cash consideration paid of approximately $9.25 million, which represents a purchase price of approximately $9.95 million net of a $700,000 negative working capital adjustment, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. The Company will include the forward results of Halo in its consolidated financial statements commencing November 21, 2017. The acquired assets consist primarily of accounts receivable, prepaids, other assets, other intangibles assets and are net of certain customer related liabilities. Acquisition related costs were not material for any period presented in the consolidated financial statements. Based upon the timing of the acquisition being subsequent to the end of the Company’s second quarter of fiscal 2018, the preliminary accounting for the business combination is incomplete at the time of filing this report. As a result, the Company is unable to provide amounts recognized as of the acquisition date for major classes of assets and liabilities acquired. The Company will include this information in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	A. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q 10-01 Regulation S-X. 10-K The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Note 1 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017 describes the significant accounting policies that we have used in preparing our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including but not limited to those related to revenue/vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”), capitalized software costs, goodwill, intangible assets, stock-based compensation, income taxes and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Software, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“American Software” or the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

For our diluted earnings per share calculation for Class A Common Shares, we use the “if-converted” For our diluted earnings per share calculation for Class B Common Shares, we use the “two-class”
