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 Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance.  Because the Fund has not yet commenced operations as of the date of this Prospectus, the Fund does not have any portfolio turnover information available. The Stance Equity ESG Large Cap Core ETF, a Series of the RBB Fund, Inc. (the "Predecessor Fund'), had a portfolio turnover rate of 290% for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2022.

Strategy [Heading] rr_StrategyHeading Principal Investment Strategy
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock
The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund (“ETF”) that will invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the value of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in exchange-traded equity securities of U.S. large capitalization issuers that meet environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) standards, as determined by the Portfolio Managers. The Fund considers companies within the Russell 1000® Index and S&P 500® Index to be large-capitalization issuers.

In identifying investments for the Fund, the Portfolio Managers utilize three independent processes. First, the Portfolio Managers apply a rules-based ESG methodology that seeks to identify the top 50% from each industry and sub-industry in the universe of large-capitalization companies. Companies that have exclusively or primarily engaged in weapons, tobacco, or thermal coal are generally excluded from consideration. The remaining universe is then quantitatively scored against industry group peers on up to 21 sustainability-related key performance indicators (“KPIs”) such as energy productivity, carbon intensity, water dependence, waste profile, and KPIs relating to governance, including capacity to innovate, unfunded pension fund liabilities, chief executive officer/average worker pay, safety performance, employee turnover, leadership diversity, percentage tax paid, and percent of bonus linked to sustainability performance.  The securities in the top 50% may be retained. The Portfolio Managers utilize data feeds from third parties that the Portfolio Managers consider, in their sole discretion, as trustworthy or have the expertise in specific KPI areas.  The current primary external data source is Corporate Knights Research, an affiliate of Stance Capital, LLC, but such firm or firms may change in the Portfolio Managers’ discretion.  Corporate Knights Research is based in Toronto, and is a leading media firm in Canada focused on climate risk.  For over 20 years, it has published an annual ranking of the most sustainable companies in the world.  Its methodology is rules-based and forms the foundation of the Portfolio Managers’ approach to ESG scoring. Second, the Portfolio Managers apply a machine-learning model that uses financial, risk, and other factors to identify companies that are most likely to outperform both in the absolute returns and in risk-adjusted returns over the next quarter. In the final process, the portfolio is optimized to
 
minimize tail risk and maximize diversification. Tail risk is the risk that an investment’s return will move significantly beyond expectations (namely, more than three standard deviations from its mean). The Portfolio Managers generally rebalance the portfolio quarterly.

Positions are sold quarterly if the Portfolio Managers decide they are no longer optimal in the portfolio. The Fund’s investment portfolio is focused, generally composed of around 30 investment positions.

While investing in a particular sector is not a principal investment strategy of the Fund, its portfolio may be significantly invested in a sector as a result of the portfolio management decisions made pursuant to its principal investment strategy. While the Fund does not place any restrictions on its level of sector concentration, it will limit its investments in industries within any particular sector to less than 25% of the Fund’s total assets. On each rebalancing date, investments within a particular sector will also be capped at up to twice the weight of the sector within the S&P 500 Index.

Semi-Transparent Actively-Managed ETF with Portfolio Reference Basket Structure: The Fund is an actively-managed, semi-transparent ETF. Unlike traditional ETFs, which generally publish their portfolio holdings on a daily basis, the Fund discloses a portfolio transparency substitute—the “Portfolio Reference Basket”—and certain related information about the Portfolio Reference Basket relative to the Fund’s actual portfolio (“Actual Portfolio”) holdings (the “Portfolio Reference Basket Disclosures”), which are intended to help keep the market price of the Fund’s shares trading at or close to the underlying net asset value (“NAV”) per share of the Fund.  While the Portfolio Reference Basket includes all of the Fund’s holdings, it is not the Fund’s Actual Portfolio because the holdings will be weighted differently, subject to a minimum weightings overlap of 90% with the Fund’s Actual Portfolio at the beginning of each trading day. The Fund also discloses the maximum deviation between the weightings of the specific securities in the Portfolio Reference Basket and the weightings of those specific securities in the Actual Portfolio, as well as between the weighting of the respective cash positions (the “Guardrail Amount”). The Guardrail Amount is intended to ensure that no individual security in the Portfolio Reference Basket will be overweighted or underweighted by more than the publicly disclosed percentage when compared to the actual weighting of each security within the Actual Portfolio as of the beginning of each trading day. The Fund is actively managed and does not seek to track an index.
Risk [Heading] rr_RiskHeading Principal Risks
Risk Narrative [Text Block] rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock
As with any security, there are market and investment risks associated with your investment in the Fund. The value of your investment will fluctuate over time, and it is possible to lose money.

Portfolio Reference Basket Structure Risk: Unlike traditional ETFs that provide daily disclosure of their portfolio holdings, the Fund discloses the identities of all portfolio holdings daily, but not the exact quantities or weightings. Instead, the Fund discloses a Portfolio Reference Basket generated each day by a proprietary algorithmic process that is designed to closely track the daily performance of the Fund’s Actual Portfolio on any given trading day. Although the Portfolio Reference Basket and Portfolio Reference Basket Disclosures are intended to provide authorized participants (“APs”) and other market participants with enough information to allow
 
4   www.hennessyetfs.com
them to engage in effective arbitrage transactions that will help keep the market price of the Fund’s shares trading at or close to the underlying NAV per share of the Fund, there is a risk that market prices will vary significantly from the underlying NAV of the Fund, which may be heightened during periods of market disruption or volatility.

Bid/Ask Spread Risk. The Fund’s shares may trade at a wider bid/ask spread than shares of traditional ETFs and may therefore be more costly for investors to trade, which may be heightened during periods of market disruption or volatility. “Bid” refers to the highest price a buyer will pay to buy a specified number of shares of a stock at any given time. “Ask” refers to the lowest price at which a seller will sell the stock. The difference between the bid price and the ask price is called the “spread.”

Additional Trading Cost Risk. The Portfolio Reference Basket structure itself may result in additional trading costs because the Fund may receive or deliver holdings in different weightings on any given day than the weightings of the Fund’s Actual Portfolio, which may result in portfolio turnover, and related transaction costs, to realign the Actual Portfolio with the Fund’s intended investment strategy.

Arbitrage Risk. There can be no assurance that the Portfolio Reference Basket structure will operate as intended. The Portfolio Reference Basket structure is novel and not yet proven as an effective arbitrage mechanism. The effectiveness of the Portfolio Reference Basket structure as an arbitrage mechanism is contingent upon, among other things, the effectiveness of the proprietary algorithmic process employed to create a Portfolio Reference Basket that performs in a manner substantially identical to the performance of the Fund’s Actual Portfolio and the willingness of APs and other market participants to trade based on the Portfolio Reference Basket.

Calculation of Reference Basket Risk. Although the Fund provides an independent third party with information to generate the Portfolio Reference Basket, the Fund is not involved in the actual calculation of the Portfolio Reference Basket and is not responsible for the calculation or dissemination of the Portfolio Reference Basket. The Fund makes no warranty as to the accuracy of the Portfolio Reference Basket or that it will produce the intended results.

Tracking Error Risk. In the event that the Portfolio Reference Basket structure does not result in effective arbitrage opportunities in the Fund’s shares, the Fund may exhibit wider premiums/discounts, bid/ask spreads, and tracking error than traditional ETFs.

Remedial Action Risk. For at least the first three years after the Reorganization, if the tracking error (relative to the Actual Portfolio) exceeds 1%, or if, for 30 or more days in any quarter or 15 days in a row, the absolute difference between either the closing price or the mid-point of the highest bid and lowest offer at the time of calculation of the NAV (the “Bid/Ask Price”), on one hand, and NAV, on the other, exceeds 2.00% or the bid/ask spread exceeds 2.00%, the Investment Manager will recommend appropriate remedial measures to the Board of Trustees for its consideration, which may include, but are not limited to, liquidation of the Fund.

Authorized Participants, Market Makers, and Liquidity Providers Concentration Risk: Only an AP may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund. The Fund has a limited number of financial institutions that are institutional investors and may act as APs. In addition, there may be a limited number of market makers or liquidity providers in the marketplace. To the extent either of the following events occur, the Fund’s shares may trade at a material discount to NAV and possibly face trading halts or delisting: (i) APs exit the business or otherwise become unable to process creation or redemption orders and no other APs step forward to perform
 
Hennessy Funds 1-877-671-3199 5
these services, or (ii) market makers or liquidity providers exit the business or significantly reduce their business activities and no other entities step forward to perform their functions. These events, among others, may lead to the Fund shares trading at a premium or discount to NAV. Thus, you may pay more (or less) than the NAV when you buy shares of the Fund in the secondary market, and you may receive less (or more) than NAV when you sell those shares in the secondary market. A diminished market for an ETF’s shares substantially increases the risk that a shareholder may pay considerably more or receive significantly less than the underlying value of the ETF shares bought or sold. In periods of market volatility, APs, market makers, or liquidity providers may be less willing to transact in Fund shares. Further, the Fund is utilizing a novel and unique structure, which may affect the number of entities willing to act as APs, market makers, or liquidity providers.

Cash Transactions Risk: Unlike traditional ETFs, the securities in the Fund’s basket of securities exchanged for a Creation Unit will not correspond pro rata to the positions in the Fund’s portfolio, and the Fund may effect its creations and redemptions partially or wholly for cash rather than on an in-kind basis. Because of this, the Fund may incur costs such as brokerage costs or be unable to realize certain tax benefits associated with in-kind transfers of portfolio securities that may be realized by other ETFs. These costs may decrease the Fund’s NAV to the extent that the costs are not offset by a transaction fee payable by an AP. Shareholders may be subject to tax on gains they would not otherwise have been subject to /or at an earlier date than if the Fund had effected redemptions wholly on an in-kind basis.

Secondary Market Trading Risk: Although the Fund’s shares are listed on a national securities exchange, the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”), there can be no assurance that an active or liquid trading market for them will develop or be maintained. In addition, trading in shares on the Exchange may be halted. Trading may be halted because of market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the Exchange, make trading in the Fund inadvisable. These may include: (a) the extent to which trading is not occurring in the securities or the financial instruments composing the Portfolio Reference Basket or Actual Portfolio; or (b) whether other unusual conditions or circumstances detrimental to the maintenance of a fair and orderly market are present. If the Exchange becomes aware that the NAV, Portfolio Reference Basket, or Actual Portfolio is not disseminated to all market participants at the same time, the Exchange shall halt trading in such series until such time as the NAV, Portfolio Reference Basket, or Actual Portfolio is available to all market participants at the same time. In addition, trading in shares on the Exchange is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to Exchange “circuit breaker” rules, which temporarily halt trading on the Exchange. Additional rules applicable to the Exchange may halt trading in shares when extraordinary volatility causes sudden, significant swings in the market price of shares. If a trading halt or unanticipated early closing of the Exchange occurs, a shareholder may be unable to purchase or sell shares of the Fund. Trading halts may have more effect on the Fund because of its semi-transparent structure. There can be no assurance that shares will trade with any volume, or at all, on any stock exchange. In stressed market conditions, the liquidity of the Fund’s shares may begin to mirror the liquidity of the Fund’s underlying holdings, which can be significantly less liquid than the Fund’s shares.

Shares May Trade at Prices other than NAV Risk: As with all ETFs, the Fund’s shares may be bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. Although the Portfolio Reference
 
6   www.hennessyetfs.com
Basket structure is intended to provide market participants with enough information to allow for an effective arbitrage mechanism that will help to keep the market price of the Fund’s shares at or close to the Fund’s NAV, there is a risk that market prices for Fund shares will vary significantly from the Fund’s NAV. This risk is heightened in times of market disruption or volatility or periods of steep market declines. The market price of shares during the trading day, like the price of any exchange-traded security, includes a “bid/ask” spread charged by the exchange specialist, market makers or other participants that trade shares. In times of severe market disruption, the bid/ask spread can increase significantly. At those times, shares are most likely to be traded at a discount to NAV, and the discount is likely to be greatest when the price of shares is falling fastest, which may be the time that you most want to sell your Fund shares. This risk may be greater for the Fund than for traditional ETFs that disclose their full portfolio holdings on a daily basis because the publication of the Portfolio Reference Basket does not provide the same level of transparency as the daily publication of the actual portfolio by a traditional ETF. This could cause the Fund’s shares to have wider bid/ask spreads and larger premiums/discounts than traditional ETFs using the same or similar investment strategies. Therefore, the Fund’s shares may cost investors more to trade than traditional ETF shares, especially during periods of market disruption or volatility.

Limitations of Intraday Indicative Value (IIV) Risk: The Exchange or a market data vendor intends to disseminate the approximate per share value of the Fund’s Portfolio Reference Basket every 15 seconds (the ‘‘intraday indicative value’’ or ‘‘IIV’’). The IIV should not be viewed as a ‘‘real-time’’ update of the NAV per share of the Fund because (i) the IIV is not be calculated in the same manner as the NAV, which is computed once a day, generally at the end of the business day, (ii) the calculation of NAV may be subject to fair valuation at different prices than those used in the calculations of the IIV, (iii) unlike the calculation of NAV, the IIV does not take into account Fund expenses, and (iv) the IIV is based on the Portfolio Reference Basket and not on the Fund’s Actual Portfolio. The Fund, the Investment Manager, and their affiliates are not involved in, or responsible for, any aspect of the calculation or dissemination of the Fund’s IIV, and the Fund, the Investment Manager, and their affiliates do not make any warranty as to the accuracy of these calculations.

Early Close/Trading Halt Risk: An exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on specific securities, or the ability to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments may be restricted, which may result in the Fund being unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments. In such circumstances, the Fund may be unable to rebalance its portfolio, may be unable to accurately price its investments, or may incur substantial losses and may limit or stop purchases of the Fund.

Environmental, Social, and Governance Investing Risk. ESG investing risk is the risk stemming from the environmental, social, and governance factors that the Fund applies in selecting securities. The Fund intends to invest in companies with measurable high ESG ratings relative to their sector peers, and screen out particular companies that do not meet its ESG criteria. This may affect the Fund’s exposure to certain companies or industries and cause the Fund to forego certain investment opportunities. The Fund’s returns may be lower than other funds that do not seek to invest in companies based on ESG ratings or screen out certain companies or industries. The Fund seeks to identify companies that it believes may have higher ESG ratings, but investors may differ
 
Hennessy Funds 1-877-671-3199 7
in their views of ESG characteristics. As a result, the Fund may invest in companies that do not reflect the beliefs and values of any particular investor.

Third Party Data Provider Risk. In evaluating issuers, the Portfolio Managers rely upon information and data, including from third party data providers, that may be incomplete, inaccurate, or unavailable, or that may present conflicting information and data with respect to an issuer, which in each case could cause the Portfolio Manager to incorrectly assess an issuer’s business practices with respect to ESG.  As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that do not screen or score companies based on ESG factors or funds that use a different third party data providers.

Market and Equity Investments Risk: The market value of a security may move up or down, and these fluctuations may cause a security to be worth more or less than the price originally paid for it. Market risk may affect a single company, an industry, a sector of the economy, or the market as a whole. The value of equity securities fluctuate due to many factors, including the past and predicted earnings of the issuer, the quality of the issuer’s management, general market conditions, political and other events, forecasts for the issuer’s industry, and the value of the issuer’s assets.

Large-Cap Companies Risk: The stocks of large capitalization companies as a group could fall out of favor with the market, causing the Fund to underperform investments that focus solely on small- or medium- capitalization stocks.

Model Risk: The Fund seeks to pursue its investment objective by using proprietary models that
incorporate quantitative analysis. Investments selected using these models may perform differently than as forecasted due to the factors incorporated into the models and the weighting of each factor, changes from historical trends, and issues in the construction and implementation of the models (including, but not limited to, software issues and other technological issues). There is no guarantee that the Portfolio Managers’ use of these models will result in effective investment decisions for the Fund. The information and data used in the models may be supplied by third parties. Inaccurate or incomplete data may limit the effectiveness of the models. In addition, some of the data that the models use may be historical data, which may not accurately predict future market movement. There is a risk that the models will not be successful in selecting investments or in determining the weighting of investment positions that will enable the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

New Fund Risk: The Fund is a recently organized, diversified management investment company with a limited operating history. As a result, prospective investors have a limited track record on which to base their investment decision. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Fund will grow to, or maintain, an economically viable size, in which case the Board of Trustees may determine to liquidate the Fund.

High Portfolio Turnover Risk: High portfolio turnover will produce higher transaction costs (such as brokerage commissions and dealer markups) that the Fund must pay, thus reducing the Fund’s performance. High portfolio turnover may also result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account.

Sector Risk: From time to time, the Fund may concentrate its investments in one or more industry sectors. The Fund is currently substantially invested in the Consumer Discretionary and Health Care sectors and its performance is therefore tied closely to, and affected by, developments in these industries. Companies in the Consumer Discretionary sector may be affected by commodity price volatility, consumer preferences, competition, changing demographics, and labor relations. These companies depend heavily on disposable household income and consumer spending, and social trends and marketing campaigns may significantly affect demand for their products. Consumer discretionary companies may also lose value more quickly in periods of economic downturns because their products are viewed as nonessential luxury items. Companies in the Health Care

sector are subject to extensive government regulation and can be significantly affected by government reimbursement for medical expenses, rising costs of medical products and services, pricing pressure, and an increased emphasis on outpatient services.

Tax Law Change Risk: Tax law is subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, or to different interpretations. In particular, Congress is considering substantial changes to U.S. federal income tax laws, and some with retroactive effect, that could result in substantial adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to the Fund and its shareholders. Any future changes are highly uncertain, and the impact on the Fund or its shareholders cannot be predicted. Prospective shareholders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the impact to them of possible changes in tax laws.

Predatory Trading Practices Risk:  Although the Fund seeks to benefit from keeping its portfolio holdings information secret, market participants may attempt to use the Portfolio Reference Basket and related Portfolio Reference Basket Disclosures to identify the Fund’s holdings and trading strategy. If successful, this could result in such market participants engaging in predatory trading practices that could harm the Fund and its shareholders. The Portfolio Reference Basket and related Portfolio Reference Basket Disclosures have been designed to minimize the risk that market participants could “reverse engineer” the Fund’s portfolio and investment strategy, but they may not be successful in this regard.
