Objective [Heading] rr_ObjectiveHeading INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
Objective, Primary [Text Block] rr_ObjectivePrimaryTextBlock The Fund seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation.
Expense [Heading] rr_ExpenseHeading FUND FEES AND EXPENSES
Expense Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseNarrativeTextBlock The following table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy
and hold Fund shares.
Shareholder Fees Caption [Text] rr_ShareholderFeesCaption Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment)
Operating Expenses Caption [Text] 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 [Text Block] rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock The 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 91%
of the average value of its portfolio.
Portfolio Turnover, Rate rr_PortfolioTurnoverRate 91.00%
Expenses Restated to Reflect Current [Text] rr_ExpensesRestatedToReflectCurrent Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses have been adjusted as necessary from amounts incurred during the most recent fiscal year to reflect current fees and expenses.
Expenses Not Correlated to Ratio Due to Acquired Fund Fees [Text] rr_ExpensesNotCorrelatedToRatioDueToAcquiredFundFees "Acquired Fund" means any investment company in which the Fund invests or has invested during the period. The "Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses" will not correlate to the Fund's ratio of expenses to average net assets in the Fund's Financial Highlights, which reflects the operating expenses of the Fund and does not include "Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses."
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 Fund
with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you
invest $10,000 in Class I Shares of 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, except that the Fee Waiver and Expense
Reimbursement is reflected only in the one year period below. Although your
actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would
be:
Strategy [Heading] rr_StrategyHeading PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock The Fund primarily invests in stocks of small cap companies. The Fund defines a
small cap company as one whose market capitalization falls approximately (i)
within the current market capitalization range of companies in the Russell 2000
Value Index or (ii) below the average, for the past three years, of the highest
market capitalization company as of December 31 within the Russell 2000 Value
Index. Using an analytical process together with fundamental research methods to
implement a "value" approach, PNC Capital Advisors, LLC (the "Adviser") assesses
the performance potential of companies and buys those companies it considers to
be conservatively valued relative to the securities of comparable companies. In
searching for securities with lower than average valuations, the Adviser
considers, among other things, price-to-earnings and price-to-book ratios. The
Adviser assesses a company's valuation and prospects by reviewing and analyzing
investment candidates individually. The Fund also utilizes an active trading
approach. The Fund may invest in initial public offerings ("IPOs"), the
performance of which is unpredictable and the effect of which may not be
duplicated during periods in which the Fund does not invest in IPOs. The Fund
may also invest in foreign stocks in keeping with the Fund's investment
objective.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets plus
any borrowings for investment purposes in small cap companies. The Fund will
provide shareholders with at least 60 days' written notice before changing this
80% policy.
Risk [Heading] rr_RiskHeading PRINCIPAL RISKS
Risk Narrative [Text Block] rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock Active Trading Risk. To the extent that the Fund buys and sells securities
actively, it could have higher expenses (which reduce return for shareholders)
and higher taxable distributions.

Focused Investment Risk. To the extent that the Fund focuses its investments in
the securities of a particular issuer or companies in a particular country,
group of countries, region, market, industry, group of industries, sector or
asset class, the Fund's exposure to various risks may be heightened, including
price volatility and adverse economic, market, political or regulatory
occurrences affecting that issuer, country, group of countries, region, market,
industry, group of industries, sector or asset class.

Foreign (Non-U.S.) Investment Risk. Investments in securities of foreign
companies or governments can be more volatile than investments in U.S. companies
or governments. Diplomatic, political, or economic developments, including
nationalization or expropriation, could affect investments in foreign countries.
Foreign securities markets generally have less trading volume and less liquidity
than U.S. markets. In addition, the values of securities denominated in foreign
currencies, and of dividends from such securities, can change significantly when
foreign currencies strengthen or weaken relative to the U.S. dollar. Foreign
companies or governments generally are not subject to uniform accounting,
auditing, and financial reporting standards comparable to those applicable to
domestic U.S. companies or governments. Transaction costs are generally higher
than those in the U.S. and expenses for custodial arrangements of foreign
securities may be somewhat greater than typical expenses for custodial
arrangements of similar U.S. securities.

IPO Risk. Securities issued in IPOs have no trading history, and information
about the companies may be available for very limited periods. In addition, the
prices of securities sold in IPOs may be highly volatile or may decline shortly
after the initial public offering, and the Fund may hold securities purchases in
an IPO for a very short period of time. As a result, the Fund's investments in
IPOs may increase portfolio turnover, which increases brokerage and
administrative costs and may result in taxable distributions to shareholders.

Market Risk. Market risk is the risk that securities prices will fall over short
or extended periods of time. Historically, the stock markets have moved in
cycles, and the value of the Fund's securities may fluctuate from day to day.
Individual companies may report poor results or be negatively affected by
industry and/or economic trends and developments. The prices of securities
issued by such companies may decline in response.

Small Companies Risk. Small capitalization companies may be more vulnerable to
adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. In
particular, these small companies may have limited product lines, markets and
financial resources, and may depend upon a relatively small management group.
Therefore, small cap stocks may be more volatile than those of larger companies.

Value Investing Risk. Value stocks can perform differently from the market as a
whole and from other types of stocks. Value stocks also present the risk that
their lower valuations fairly reflect their business prospects and that
investors will not agree that the stocks represent favorable investment
opportunities, and they may fall out of favor with investors and underperform
growth stocks during any given period. In the event an issuer is liquidated or
declares bankruptcy, the claims of owners of the issuer's bonds and preferred
stock generally take precedence over the claims of those who own common stock.

All investments are subject to inherent risks, and an investment in the Fund is
no exception. Your investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not
insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other
government agency. Accordingly, you may lose money by investing in the Fund.

[1] "Acquired Fund" means any investment company in which the Fund invests or has invested during the period. The "Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses" will not correlate to the Fund's ratio of expenses to average net assets in the Fund's Financial Highlights, which reflects the operating expenses of the Fund and does not include "Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses."
[2] Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses have been adjusted as necessary from amounts incurred during the most recent fiscal year to reflect current fees and expenses.
[3] The Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser") has contractually agreed to waive Management Fees and reimburse or pay certain operating expenses for the Fund to the extent the Fund's Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses exceed 1.25%, excluding certain expenses such as extraordinary expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, brokerage commissions, dealer and underwriter spreads, commitment fees on leverage facilities, prime broker fees and expenses, interest expense and dividend expenses related to short sales. This contract continues through September 27, 2013 at which time the Adviser will determine whether to renew, revise or discontinue it. The Adviser can be reimbursed by the Fund for any contractual fee reductions or expense reimbursements if reimbursement to the Adviser (a) occurs within the three years following the year in which the Fund accrues a liability or recognizes a contingent liability with respect to such amounts paid, waived or reimbursed by the Adviser and (b) does not cause the Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses of a class to exceed the percentage limit that was in effect at the time the Adviser paid, waived or reimbursed the amount being repaid by the Fund.
