Risk Return [Abstract]	rr_RiskReturnAbstract
Risk/Return, Heading	rr_RiskReturnHeading	PIA MBS Bond Fund ("MBS Bond Fund")
Investment Objective, Heading	rr_ObjectiveHeading	Investment Objective
investment Objective, Primary	rr_ObjectivePrimaryTextBlock	The MBS Bond Fund's investment objective is to seek to provide a total rate of return that approximates that of mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") included in the Barclays Capital U.S. MBS Fixed Rate Index (the "MBS Index").
Expense, Heading	rr_ExpenseHeading	Fees and Expenses of the Fund
Expense, Narrative	rr_ExpenseNarrativeTextBlock	This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the MBS Bond Fund.
Shareholder Fees, Caption	rr_ShareholderFeesCaption	SHAREHOLDER FEES (fees paid directly from your investment) None
Operating Expenses, Caption	rr_OperatingExpensesCaption	ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)
Portfolio Turnover, Heading	rr_PortfolioTurnoverHeading	Portfolio Turnover
Portfolio Turnover	rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock	The MBS Bond Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 122% of the average value of its portfolio.
Portfolio Turnover, Rate	rr_PortfolioTurnoverRate	122.00%
Expenses, Not Correlated to Ratio Due to Acquired Fund Fees	rr_ExpensesNotCorrelatedToRatioDueToAcquiredFundFees	Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses do not correlate to the "Ratio of Expenses to Average Net Assets Before Expense Reimbursement" in the Financial Highlights of the statutory prospectus, which reflects the operating expenses of the Fund and does not include AFFE.
Expense Example, Heading	rr_ExpenseExampleHeading	Example
Expense Example, Narrative	rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock	This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the MBS Bond Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same (taking into account the voluntary expense limitation only in the first year). Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:
Investment Strategy, Heading	rr_StrategyHeading	Principal Investment Strategies of the Fund
Investment Strategy, Narrative	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	Under normal market conditions, the MBS Bond Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in bonds that meet the criteria for inclusion in the MBS Index. In pursuing its objective, the Adviser attempts to provide a return that exceeds the total rate of return of the MBS Index, although there is no guarantee that the Adviser will be able to do so. The MBS Index represents the universe of mortgage-backed securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA), Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA) and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC) with a minimum issue size of $150 million. The Adviser will primarily consider credit quality, effective duration and yield in selecting investments for the MBS Bond Fund's portfolio. The weighted average duration of the MBS Bond Fund will generally be in a range of plus or minus one year of the effective duration of the MBS Index. The MBS Bond Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in futures, options and other derivatives. The MBS Bond Fund may sometimes use derivatives as a substitute for taking positions in bonds and/or as part of a strategy designed to reduce exposure to other risks. The MBS Bond Fund may also utilize the "To Be Announced" ("TBA") market for MBS for up to 100% of its net assets. The TBA market allows investors to gain exposure to MBS securities with certain broad characteristics (maturity, coupon, age) without taking delivery of the actual securities until the settlement day which is once every month. In addition, the MBS Bond Fund may utilize the dollar roll market, in which one sells, in the TBA market, the security for current month settlement, while simultaneously committing to buy the same TBA security for next month settlement. The MBS Bond Fund may utilize the dollar roll market for extended periods of time without taking delivery of the physical securities. The MBS Bond Fund may also invest up to 20% of its net assets in collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs"), asset-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities and other mortgage-related securities that are not part of the MBS Index. The MBS Bond Fund's annual portfolio turnover rate may exceed 100%. The Adviser will sell a security as part of its overall investment decision to: remove an overvalued security or reposition the Fund's assets into a more attractive security.
Risk, Heading	rr_RiskHeading	Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund
Risk, Narrative	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	Losing all or a portion of your investment is a risk of investing in the MBS Bond Fund. The success of the Fund cannot be guaranteed. There are risks associated with investments in the types of securities in which the Fund invests. These risks include: ·  Market Risk. The prices of the securities in which the MBS Bond Fund invests      may decline for a number of reasons, including in response to economic            developments and perceptions about the creditworthiness of individual issuers.    ·  Management Risk. The MBS Bond Fund is subject to management risk because    it is an actively managed portfolio. The Adviser's management practices and             investment strategies might not work to produce the desired results.              ·  Interest Rate Risk. In general, the value of bonds and other debt securities      falls when interest rates rise. Longer term obligations are usually more          sensitive to interest rate changes than shorter term obligations.                 ·  Credit Risk. The issuers of the bonds and other debt securities held by the       MBS Bond Fund may not be able to make interest or principal payments.          ·  Prepayment Risk. Issuers of securities held by the MBS Bond Fund may be    able to prepay principal due on these securities, particularly during periods    of declining interest rates. Securities subject to prepayment risk generally         offer less potential for gains when interest rates decline, and may offer a       greater potential for loss when interest rates rise. Prepayment risk is a         major risk of mortgage-backed securities.                                       ·  Risks Associated with Real Estate and Regulatory Actions. The securities that    the MBS Bond Fund owns are dependent on real estate prices. Although some    of the securities in the Fund are expected to either have a U.S. Government          sponsored entity guarantee or be AAA rated by Moody's, Standard & Poor's          and/or Fitch, if real estate experiences a significant price decline, this        could adversely affect the prices of the securities the Fund owns. Any adverse    regulatory action could impact the prices of the securities the Fund owns.        ·  Liquidity Risk. Low or lack of trading volume may make it difficult to sell       securities held by the MBS Bond Fund at quoted market prices.                     ·  Derivatives Risk. The MBS Bond Fund may invest in derivative securities for       both bona fide hedging purposes and for speculative purposes. A derivative        security is a financial contract whose value is based on (or "derived from")    a traditional security (such as a bond) or a market index. Derivatives involve      the risk of improper valuation, the risk of ambiguous documentation and the       risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly      with the underlying security.                                                     ·  TBA Securities Risk. The MBS Bond Fund may invest in TBA securities. In a    TBA transaction, a seller agrees to deliver a security at a future date, but does    not specify the particular security to be delivered. Instead, the seller agrees to    accept any security that meets specified terms. The principal risks of TBA    transactions are increased credit risk and increased overall investment    exposure.                                                                         ·  CMO Risk. A CMO is a hybrid between a mortgage-backed bond and a mortgage         pass-through security. Similar to a bond, interest and prepaid principal on CMOs is    paid, in most cases, semiannually. CMOs may be collateralized by whole mortgage    loans, but are more typically collateralized by portfolios of mortgage pass-through    securities guaranteed by GNMA, FHLMC or FNMA, and their income streams.    CMOs may offer a higher yield than U.S. government securities, but they may also    be subject to greater price fluctuation and credit risk.        ·  Dollar Roll Risk. Dollar rolls involve the risk that the MBS Bond Fund's          counterparty will be unable to deliver the mortgage-backed securities             underlying the dollar roll at the fixed time. If the buyer files for bankruptcy    or becomes insolvent, the buyer or its representative may ask  for and    receive an extension of time to decide whether to enforce the Fund's          repurchase obligation. In addition, the Fund earns interest by investing    the transaction proceeds during the roll period. Dollar roll transactions    may have the effect of creating leverage in the Fund's portfolio.                       ·  Portfolio Turnover Risk. A high portfolio turnover rate (100% or more) has    the potential to result in the realization and distribution to shareholders of        higher capital gains, which may subject you to a higher tax liability. A high    portfolio turnover rate also leads to higher transactions costs.               ·  Leverage Risk. Leverage risk is the risk that losses from a derivative            instrument may be greater than the amount invested in the derivative              instrument. Certain derivatives have the potential for unlimited losses,          regardless of the size of the initial investment.                                 ·  Risks Associated with Inflation and Deflation. Inflation risk is the risk that    the rising cost of living may erode the purchasing power of an investment    over time. Deflation risk is the risk that prices throughout the economy decline       over time - the opposite of inflation.                                         ·  Government-Sponsored Entities Risk. The MBS Bond Fund invests in securities       issued or guaranteed by government-sponsored entities, including GNMA, FNMA       and FHLMC. However, these securities may not be guaranteed or insured by the      U.S. Government and may only be supported by the credit of the issuing agency. ·  Risks Associated with Mortgage-Backed Securities. These risks include Market      Risk, Interest Rate Risk, Credit Risk and Prepayment Risk, as well as the risk    that the structure of certain mortgage-backed securities may make their           reaction to interest rates and other factors difficult to predict, which may      cause their prices to be very volatile. In particular, the recent events          related to the U.S. housing market have had a severe negative impact on the       value of some mortgage-backed securities and resulted in an increased risk        associated with investments in these securities.

[1] The Adviser will not charge a fee for its advisory services to the MBS Bond Fund. However, investors in the Fund are clients of the Adviser and pay the Adviser an advisory fee to manage their assets, which include assets invested in the Fund. The Adviser has voluntarily agreed to pay for all operating expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses - "AFFE") incurred by the Fund through at least March 30, 2013 (the "voluntary expense limitation"). This waiver arrangement may be discontinued at any time after March 30, 2013, as long as the Adviser provides Fund shareholders with written notice six months in advance of the discontinuance. The Adviser may not recoup amounts subject to the voluntary expense limitation in future periods. The table shows the net expenses of the Fund as 0.02% (without AFFE net expenses would be 0.00%) reflecting the fact that the Fund is used to implement certain fixed-income strategies that are offered to Eligible Investors (as such are defined in the statutory prospectus). Investors should carefully consider the separate fees charged in connection with investment in the Fund.

[2] Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses do not correlate to the "Ratio of Expenses to Average Net Assets Before Expense Reimbursement" in the Financial Highlights of the statutory prospectus, which reflects the operating expenses of the Fund and does not include AFFE.
