Accounts Receivable [Abstract]
Accounts Receivable	Accounts Receivable, Net Accounts receivable, net is expected to be collected within one year and is net of an allowance for doubtful accounts in the amount of $676 and $1,271 at October 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We recognized bad debt expense of $32 and $493 during fiscal 2018 and 2017, respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations. We continually monitor our exposure with our customers and additional consideration is given to individual accounts in light of the market conditions in the automotive and commercial vehicle markets. As a part of our working capital management, the Company has entered into factoring agreements with third party financial institutions ("institutions") for the sale of certain accounts receivable with recourse. The activity under these agreements is accounted for as sales of accounts receivable under ASC Topic 860 "Transfers and Servicing." These agreements relate exclusively to the accounts receivable of certain Italian and Swedish customers. The amounts sold vary each month based on the amount of underlying receivables and cash flow requirements of the Company. In addition, the agreements address events and conditions which may obligate us to immediately repay the institutions the outstanding purchase price of the receivables sold. The total amount of accounts receivable factored was $13,545 and $7,567 as of October 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. As these sales of accounts receivable are with recourse, $11,742 and $8,072 were recorded in accounts payable as of October 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The cost of selling these receivables is dependent upon the number of days between the sale date of the receivables and the date the customer’s invoice is due and the interest rate. The expense associated with the sale of these receivables is recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
