Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Financial Instruments	Derivative Financial Instruments The Company’s primary objective for holding derivative financial instruments is to manage foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. As a result of the use of derivative financial instruments, the Company is exposed to the risk that counterparties to derivative contracts may fail to meet their contractual obligations. The Company manages counterparty credit risk in derivative contracts by reviewing counterparty creditworthiness on a regular basis, establishing collateral requirement and limiting exposure to any single counterparty. The right of set-off that exists with certain transactions enables the Company to net amounts due to and from the counterparty, reducing the maximum loss from credit risk in the event of counterparty default. In March and May 2020, the Company entered into interest rate swap contracts with an independent financial institution in an effort to reduce the risk of changes in the underlying benchmark interest rate. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company unwound the interest rate swap contracts and recognized an immaterial loss. The loss is being amortized as an additional increase to interest expense over the remaining life of the 2030 Notes. There was no ineffectiveness during all periods presented.
