Expense Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseNarrativeTextBlock
This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Cornerstone Fund.  You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Fund’s Class A shares.  Certain financial intermediaries also may offer variations in Fund sales charges to their customers as described in Appendix A to the statutory Prospectus.  More information about these and other discounts is available from your financial professional and in the “Your Account with a Fund” section on page 37 of the Fund’s statutory Prospectus, the “More About Class A Shares” section on page 38 of the Fund’s statutory Prospectus, the “Breakpoints/Volume Discounts and Sales Charge Waivers” section on page 34 of the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”) and Appendix A to the Statutory Prospectus.

Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock
The Cornerstone 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 Cornerstone Fund’s performance.  During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 24.82% of the average value of its portfolio.

Expense Example [Heading] rr_ExpenseExampleHeading Example.
Expense Example Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Cornerstone Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.  The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Cornerstone 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 Expense Caps only in the first year).

Strategy [Heading] rr_StrategyHeading Principal Investment Strategy
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock
The Cornerstone Fund seeks to deliver superior, risk-adjusted returns over full market cycles, by building a balanced portfolio of debt and equity securities that aims to generate returns that exceed the Consumer Price Index by 3% per year while preserving capital.  A full market cycle is deemed to be a multi-year period including a period of material increase in the U.S. stock market (a “bull market”) and a period of material decline in the U.S. stock market (a “bear market”).

Equity securities in which the Fund may invest include, but are not limited to, common stocks, foreign equity securities, convertible securities, and options on stocks, warrants, rights, and/or other investment companies, including mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”).  Equity securities will generally be selected based on qualitative analysis with individual positions no larger than 4% at time of purchase.  The Fund may invest in medium-sized companies, which the Adviser defines by reference to those companies within the capitalization range of the Russell Midcap® Index (which consists of companies with capitalizations from approximately $2.3 billion to approximately $29.4 billion as of May 12, 2017, the date of the last reconstitution of the Russell Midcap® Index) at the time of purchase.  Dividend paying companies with investment grade credit ratings will be the primary focus of the Fund’s equity investments.  Weightings between equity and fixed income securities will be tactically allocated based on prospective return potential and risk factors although equity exposure will not generally exceed 75% of net assets.

Fixed income securities in which the Fund may invest include, but are not limited to, those of domestic governments, government agencies, inflation-protected securities, asset-backed securities, other investment companies, including mutual funds and ETFs, exchange-traded notes (“ETNs”), convertible securities, floating rate securities, mortgage-backed securities, municipalities and companies across a wide range of industries, and may be of any maturity and duration and include those that are rated below investment grade (i.e., “junk bonds”).

The Cornerstone Fund is managed using a long-term approach to security selection.  Investments will generally be made with an intended investment horizon of three years, although individual investments may be held for shorter or longer time periods.

The Adviser evaluates investment opportunities using bottom-up, fundamental analysis, paying particular attention to a company’s:

1.
expected future profits;

2.
expected sustainable revenue and/or asset growth;

3.
expected cash investment needed to support expected growth;

4.
normalized free cash flow after considering Items 1 through 3 above; and

5.
valuation relative to normalized earnings and free cash flow after giving consideration to growth potential and financial strength.
Risk [Heading] rr_RiskHeading Principal Investment Risks
Risk Narrative [Text Block] rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock
Losing a portion of your investment is a risk of investing in the Cornerstone Fund.  The following additional risks could affect the value of your investment:

·
General Market Risk – Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions.  The price of equity securities may rise or fall because of economic or political changes or changes in a company’s financial condition, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, sectors or industries selected for the Fund’s portfolio or the securities market as a whole, such as changes in economic or political conditions.

·
Management Risk – If the Adviser’s investment strategies do not produce the expected results, the value of the Cornerstone Fund could decrease.

·
Equity Securities Risk – The price of equity securities may rise or fall because of economic or political changes or changes in a company’s financial condition, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, sectors or industries selected for the Fund’s portfolio or the securities market as a whole, such as changes in economic or political conditions.

·
Value-Style Investing Risk – Value stocks can perform differently from the market as a whole and from other types of stocks.  Value stocks may be purchased based upon the belief that a given security may be out of favor; that belief may be misplaced or the security may stay out of favor for an extended period of time.

·
Debt Securities Risk – The following risks are associated with the Fund’s investment in debt securities.

o
Prepayment and Extension Risk.  The risk that the securities may be paid off earlier (prepayment) or later (extension) than expected.  Either situation could cause securities to pay lower-than-market rates of interest, which could hurt the Fund’s yield or share price.

o Interest Rate Risk.  The Fund’s investments in fixed income securities will change in value based on changes in interest rates.  If rates increase, the value of these investments generally declines.  Securities with greater interest rate sensitivity and longer maturities generally are subject to greater fluctuations in value.  Given that the Federal Reserve has begun to raise interest rates, the Fund may face a heightened level of interest rate risk.

o
Credit Risk.  The risk of loss on an investment due to the deterioration of an issuer’s financial strength.  Such a deterioration of financial strength may result in a reduction of the credit rating of the issuer’s securities and may lead to the issuer’s inability to honor its contractual obligations, including making timely payment of interest and principal.

o
High-Yield Securities Risk.  Debt securities that are rated below investment grade (i.e., “junk bonds”) are subject to additional risk factors due to the speculative nature of these securities, such as increased possibility of default liquidation of the security, and changes in value based on public perception of the issuer.

o
Municipal Securities Risk.  The values of municipal securities may be adversely affected by local political and economic conditions and developments. Adverse conditions in an industry significant to a local economy could have a correspondingly adverse effect on the financial condition of local issuers. Municipal securities may be difficult to obtain because of limited supply, which may increase the cost of such securities and effectively reduce a portfolio’s yield.  Typically, less information is available about a municipal issuer than is available for other types of securities issuers.

o
Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities Risk.  Mortgage- and asset-backed securities generally can be prepaid at any time, and prepayments that occur either more quickly or more slowly than expected can adversely impact the value of such securities. They are also subject to extension risk, which is the risk that rising interest rates could cause mortgages or other obligations underlying the securities to be prepaid more slowly than expected, thereby lengthening the duration of such securities, increasing their sensitivity to interest rate changes and causing their prices to decline. A mortgage-backed security may be negatively affected by the quality of the mortgages underlying such security, the credit quality of its issuer or guarantor, and the nature and structure of its credit support.

o
Exchange-Traded Note Risk.  The value of an ETN may be influenced by time to maturity, level of supply and demand for the ETN, volatility and lack of liquidity in the underlying securities’ markets, changes in the applicable interest rates, changes in the issuer’s credit rating and economic, legal, political or geographic events that affect the referenced index.  In addition, the notes issued by ETNs and held by the Fund are unsecured debt of the issuer.

o
Inflation Protected Securities Risk.  The value of inflation protected securities generally will fluctuate in response to changes in “real” interest rates, generally decreasing when real interest rates rise and increasing when real interest rates fall.  Real interest rates represent nominal (or stated) interest rates reduced by the expected impact of inflation.  In addition, interest payments on inflation-indexed securities will generally vary up or down along with the rate of inflation.

·
Medium-Sized Companies Risk – Investing in securities of medium-sized companies may involve greater risk than investing in larger, more established companies because they can be subject to greater share price volatility than larger, more established companies.

·
Foreign Securities Risk – The risks of investing in the securities of foreign issuers can include fluctuations in foreign currencies, foreign currency exchange controls, political and economic instability, differences in securities regulation and trading, and foreign taxation issues.

·
Convertible Securities Risk – Convertible securities are subject to the risks of both debt securities and equity securities.  The values of convertible securities tend to decline as interest rates rise and, due to the conversion feature, tend to vary with fluctuations in the market value of the underlying common or preferred stock.

·
Investment Company Risk – When the Fund invests in an ETF or mutual fund, it will bear additional expenses based on its pro rata share of the ETF’s or mutual fund’s operating expenses, including the potential duplication of management fees.  The risk of owning an ETF or mutual fund generally reflects the risks of owning the underlying securities the ETF or mutual fund holds.  The Fund also will incur brokerage costs when it purchases ETFs.

·
Options Risk – Options on securities may be subject to greater fluctuations in value than an investment in the underlying securities.  Purchasing and writing put and call options are highly specialized activities and entail greater than ordinary investment risks.

The Cornerstone Fund may be appropriate for investors who:

·
are interested in protecting their purchasing power by investing in common stocks; but

·
would prefer less volatility than would generally be inherent in an all equity account.

[2] Poplar Forest Capital, LLC (the "Adviser") has contractually agreed to waive a portion or all of its management fees and pay Fund expenses (excluding AFFE, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses) in order to limit the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses to 1.15% and 0.90% of average daily net assets of the Fund's Class A shares and Institutional Class shares, respectively (the "Expense Caps"). The Expense Caps will remain in effect through at least January 27, 2019, and may be terminated only by the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board"). The Adviser may request recoupment of previously waived fees and paid expenses from the Fund for three years from the date they were waived or paid, subject to the Expense Caps.
