An investment in the Fund is not a deposit in a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency. The risks associated with an investment in the Fund can increase during times of significant market volatility. The principal risks of investing in the Fund are:</p><p><i> Market Risk.</i> Market risk is the possibility that the market values of securities owned by the Fund will decline. Investments in common stocks and other equity securities generally are affected by changes in the stock markets which fluctuate substantially over time, sometimes suddenly and sharply. The prices of fixed income securities tend to fall as interest rates rise, and such declines tend to be greater among fixed income securities with longer maturities. The yields and market prices of U.S. government securities may move differently and adversely compared to the yields and market prices of the overall securities market and, while backed by the U.S. government, are not guaranteed against declines in their market prices. As interest rates change, zero coupon bonds often fluctuate more in price than securities that make regular interest payments and therefore subject the Fund to greater market risk than a fund that does not own these types of securities. When-issued and delayed delivery transactions are subject to changes in market conditions from the time of the commitment until settlement.</p><p><i> Credit Risk.</i> Credit risk refers to an issuer&#8217;s ability to make timely payments of interest and principal. The credit quality of noninvestment grade securities is considered speculative by recognized rating agencies with respect to the issuer&#8217;s continuing ability to pay interest and principal. Lower-grade securities (also sometimes known as junk bonds) may have less liquidity and a higher incidence of default than higher-grade securities. The Fund may incur higher expenses to protect the Fund&#8217;s interest in such securities.</p><p> The credit risks and market prices of lower-grade securities generally are more sensitive to negative issuer developments or adverse economic conditions than are higher-grade securities.</p><p> <i>Income Risk.</i> The income you receive from the Fund is based primarily on interest rates, which can vary widely over the short-and long-term. If interest rates drop, your income from the Fund may drop as well. The more the Fund invests in adjustable, variable or floating rate securities or in securities susceptible to prepayment risk, the greater the Fund&#8217;s income risk.</p><p><i> Prepayment or Call Risk.</i> If interest rates fall, it is possible that issuers of fixed income securities with high interest rates will prepay or call their securities before their maturity dates. In this event, the proceeds from the prepaid or called securities would likely be reinvested by the Fund in securities bearing the new, lower interest rates, resulting in a possible decline in the Fund&#8217;s income and distributions to shareholders. Mortgage-related securities are especially sensitive to prepayment risk because borrowers often refinance their mortgages when interest rates drop.</p><p><i> Extension Risk.</i> The prices of fixed income securities tend to fall as interest rates rise. For mortgage-related securities, if interest rates rise, borrowers may prepay mortgages more slowly than originally expected. This may further reduce the market value of the securities and lengthen their duration.</p><p><i> Inflation-Linked Fixed Income Securities Risk.</i> Unlike a conventional bond, whose issuer makes regular fixed interest payments and repays the face value of the bond at maturity, an inflation-indexed security provides principal payments and interest payments, both of which are adjusted over time to reflect a direct correlation to either a rise (inflation) or a drop (deflation) in the general price level. Inflation measurement and adjustment for an inflation-indexed security have two important features. There is generally some lag between the time that inflation occurs in the economy and when it is factored into inflation-indexed security valuations. In addition, the inflation index generally used is the non-seasonally adjusted index, which is not statistically smoothed to overcome highs and lows observed at different points each year. The use of the non-seasonally adjusted index can cause the Fund&#8217;s income level to fluctuate.</p><p><i> Foreign Risks.</i> These risks of investing in securities of foreign issuers, including emerging market issuers, can include fluctuations in foreign currencies, foreign currency exchange controls, political and economic instability, differences in financial reporting, differences in securities regulation and trading, and foreign taxation issues. To the extent the Fund focuses its assets in a single country or region, its portfolio would be more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers in that country or region.</p><p><i> Risks of Investing in REITs and Foreign Real Estate Companies.</i> Investing in REITs and foreign real estate companies makes the Fund susceptible to the risks associated with the ownership of real estate and with the real estate industry in general and may involve duplication of management fees and certain other expenses. In addition, REITs and foreign real estate companies depend upon specialized management skills, may not be diversified, may have less trading volume, and may be subject to more abrupt or erratic price movements than the overall securities markets.</p><p><i> Risks of Using Derivative Instruments.</i> Risks of derivatives include imperfect correlation between the value of the instruments and the underlying assets; risks of default by the other party to certain transactions; risks that the transactions may result in losses that partially or completely offset gains in portfolio positions; and risks that the transactions may not be liquid.</p><p> The Fund&#8217;s investments in commodity linked derivatives to gain exposure to investment returns of assets that trade in the commodity market may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investment in traditional securities. The value of commodity linked derivative investments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, commodity index volatility, changes in interest rates, or sectors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods, weather, embargoes, tariffs and international economic, political and regulatory developments. The prices of precious metals and precious metals-related securities, in particular, have historically been very volatile.</p><p><i> Convertible Securities Risk.</i> The Fund may own convertible securities, the value of which may be affected by market interest rates, the risk that the issuer will default, the value of the underlying stock or the right of the issuer to buy back the convertible securities.</p><p><i> Exchange-Traded Fund Risk.</i> An investment by the Fund in ETFs generally presents the same primary risks as an investment in a mutual fund. In addition, an ETF may be subject to the following: (1) a discount of the ETF&#8217;s shares to its net asset value; (2) failure to develop an active trading market for the ETF&#8217;s shares; (3) the listing exchange halting trading of the ETF&#8217;s shares; (4) failure of the ETF&#8217;s shares to track the referenced index; and (5) holding troubled securities in the referenced index. ETFs may involve duplication of management fees and certain other expenses, as the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of any expenses paid by the ETFs in which it invests. Further, certain of the ETFs in which the Fund may invest are leveraged. The more the Fund invests in such leveraged ETFs, the more this leverage will magnify any losses on those investments.</p><p><i> Futures Risk.</i> A decision as to whether, when and how to use futures involves the exercise of skill and judgment and even a well conceived futures transaction may be unsuccessful because of market behavior or unexpected events.</p><p><i> Swaps Risk.</i> A swap contract is an agreement between two parties pursuant to which the parties exchange payments at specified dates on the basis of a specified notional amount, with the payments calculated by reference to specified securities, indexes, reference rates, currencies or other instruments. Swaps are subject to credit risk and counterparty risk.</p><p><i> Warrants Risk.</i> Warrants may be significantly less valuable on their relevant expiration date resulting in a loss of money or they may expire worthless resulting in a total loss of the investment. Warrants may also be postponed or terminated early resulting in a partial or total loss of the investment. Warrants may also be subject to illiquidity.</p><p><i> Active Trading Risk.</i> The Fund engages in frequent trading of portfolio securities. Active trading results in added expenses and may result in lower return and increased tax liability.</p>falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringNarrative Risk Disclosure.

The benchmarks may not reflect payment of fees, expenses or taxes.

The predecessor fund was advised by Van Kampen Asset Management. Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I and Class R shares of the predecessor fund were reorganized into Class A, Class B, Class C, Class Y and Class R shares, respectively, on June 1, 2010. Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R and Class Y shares&#8217; returns of the Fund will be different from the predecessor fund as they have different expenses. Predecessor fund performance for Class A and Class B shares has been restated to reflect the Fund&#8217;s applicable sales charge.</p><p>Updated performance information is available on the Fund&#8217;s Web site at www.invesco.com/us.</p>falsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringRisk/Return Bar Chart and Table.Reference 1: 1 -Publisher SEC -Name Form -Number N-1A -Chapter A -Section 4 -Paragraph 2 -Subsection b falsefalsePerformance Narrative [Text Block]25false0rr_BarChartHeadingrrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse1falsefalsefalse00Annual Total ReturnsfalsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherxbrli:stringItemTypestringRisk/Return Bar Chart and Table.Reference 1: 1 -Publisher SEC -Name Form -Number N-1A -Chapter A -Section 4 -Paragraph 2 -Subsection b falsefalseBar Chart [Heading]26false0rr_BarChartNarrativeTextBlockrrfalsenadurationNo definition available.falsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalse1falsefalsefalse00The bar chart shows changes in the performance of the Fund from year to year as of December 31.

the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor&#8217;s tax situation and may differ from those shown, and after-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts.

A Money Market Fund should show only the returns described in clause (A) of the preceding sentence. All returns should be shown for 1-, 5-, and 10- calendar year periods ending on the date of the most recently completed calendar year (or for the life of the Fund, if shorter), but only for periods subsequent to the effective date of the Fund's registration statement. The table also shouldshow the returns of an appropriate broadbased securities market index as defined in Instruction 5 to Item 22(b)(7) for the same periods. A Fund that has been in existence for more than 10 years also may include returns for the life of the Fund. A Money Market Fund may provide the Fund's 7-day yield ending on the date of the most recent calendar year or disclose a toll-free (or collect) telephone number that investors can use to obtain the Fund's current 7-day yield. For a Fund (other than a Money Market Fund or a Fund described in General Instruction C.3.(d)(iii)), provide the information in the following table with the specified captions AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS (For the periods ended December 31, _____). For a Fund that provides annual total returns for only one calendar year or for a Fund that does not include the bar chart because it does not have annual returns for a full calendar year, modify, as appropriate, the narrative explanation required by paragraph (c)(2)(i) (e.g., by stating that the information gives some indication of the risks of an investment in the Fund by comparing the Fund's performance with a broad measure of market performance).Reference 1: 1 -Publisher SEC -Name Form -Number N-1A -Chapter A -Section 4 -Paragraph 2 -Subparagraph iv -Subsection b falsefalsePerformance Table Narrative129Risk/Return Summary - Invesco Van Kampen Global Tactical Asset Allocation Fund (Class A, B, C, R and Y) (Invesco Van Kampen Global Tactical Asset Allocation Fund, Invesco Van Kampen Global Tactical Asset Allocation Fund Class A, B, C, R and Y)UnKnownUnKnownUnKnownUnKnownfalsetrue
