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 period July 1, 2017 to October 31, 2017, the fund's portfolio turnover rate was 123% of the average value of its portfolio.

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 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 example incorporates the fee waiver/expense reimbursement arrangement for Classes A, C, R-3, R-5, and R-6 through February 28, 2019, and for Classes I and Y through October 31, 2019. 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 Under normal circumstances, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in bonds of varying maturities, including mortgage- and asset-backed securities.  Any change in this 80% policy approved by the Board may not take effect until shareholders have received written notice of the change at least sixty days before it occurs.  The bonds in which the Fund may invest also include other fixed income instruments such as debt securities, to-be-announced securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities.  The fund invests primarily in investment grade securities, but may also invest up to 25% of its assets in non-investment grade securities, also known as high yield securities or “junk” bonds.  Investment grade securities include securities rated in one of the four highest rating categories by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization, such as BBB- or higher by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (“S&P®”).  In addition, the fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis.  Securities will generally be U.S. dollar denominated although they may be securities of foreign issuers.  The fund may also invest in securities denominated in foreign currencies.  Mortgage-backed securities are pools of mortgage loans that are assembled as securities for sale to investors by various governmental, government-related and private organizations. Asset-backed securities are securities that are secured or “backed” by pools of various types of assets, such as automobile loans, consumer loans, credit cards and equipment leases, on which cash payments are due at fixed intervals over set periods of time.

The Fund may invest in derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts (including interest rate, bond, U.S. Treasury and fixed income index futures contracts), currency forwards and swap agreements (including credit default swaps) subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the fund’s Prospectus or Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”).  The fund’s investment in credit default swap agreements may include both single-name credit default swap agreements and credit default swap index products, such as CDX index products. The use of these derivative transactions may allow the Fund to obtain net long or short exposures to select currencies, interest rates, countries, durations or credit risks. These derivatives may be used to enhance fund returns, increase liquidity, manage the duration of the fund’s portfolio and/or gain exposure to certain instruments or markets ( i.e. , the corporate bond market) in a more efficient or less expensive way. The credit default swap agreements that the fund invests in may provide exposure to an index of securities representative of the entire investment grade and high yield fixed income markets, which can include underlying issuers rated as low as CCC by S&P®.  Derivative instruments that provide exposure to bonds may be used to satisfy the fund’s 80% investment policy.

The portfolio management team attempts to maximize total return over a long-term horizon through opportunistic investing in a broad array of eligible securities.  The investment process combines top-down interest rate management with bottom-up fixed income security selection, focusing on undervalued issues in the fixed income market.  The portfolio management team first establishes the portfolio’s duration, or interest rate sensitivity. The portfolio management team determines whether the fixed income market is under- or over-priced by comparing current real interest rates (the nominal rates on U.S. Treasury securities less the investment adviser’s estimate of inflation) to historical real interest rates. If the current real interest rate is higher than historical norms, the market is considered undervalued and the portfolio management team will manage the portfolio with a duration greater than the benchmark.  Duration is a measure used to determine the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.  If the current real interest rate is less than historical norms, the market is considered overvalued and the portfolio management team will run a defensive portfolio by managing the portfolio with a duration less than the benchmark.  The portfolio management team normally structures the fund so that the overall portfolio has a duration of between two and seven years based on market conditions.  For purposes of calculating the fund’s portfolio duration, the fund includes the effect of the derivative instruments held by the fund.

The portfolio management team then considers sector exposures.  Sector exposure decisions are made on both a top-down and bottom-up basis.  A bottom-up issue selection process is the major determinant of sector exposure, as the availability of attractive securities in each sector determines their underweighting or overweighting in the fund subject to sector exposure constraints.  However, for the more generic holdings in the fund, such as agency notes and pass-through mortgage backed securities, top-down considerations will drive the sector allocation process on the basis of overall measurements of sector value such as yield spreads or price levels.

Once the portfolio management team has determined an overall market strategy, the portfolio management team selects the most attractive fixed income securities for the fund. The portfolio managers screen hundreds of securities to determine how each will perform in various interest rate environments. The portfolio managers construct these scenarios by considering the outlook for interest rates, fundamental credit analysis and option-adjusted spread analysis. The portfolio managers compare these investment opportunities and assemble the fund’s portfolio from the best available values. The portfolio management team constantly monitors the expected returns of the securities in the fund versus those available in the market and of other securities the investment adviser is considering for purchase. The portfolio management team’s strategy is to replace securities that it feels are approaching fair market value with those that, according to its analysis, are significantly undervalued. As a result of this strategy, the fund’s portfolio turnover rate will vary from year to year depending on market conditions and the Fund may engage in frequent and active trading.
Risk [Heading] rr_RiskHeading Principal risks
Risk Narrative [Text Block] rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock The greatest risk of investing in the fund is that you could lose money. The values of most debt securities held by the fund may be affected by changing interest rates and by changes in the effective maturities and credit ratings of these securities. For example, the values of debt securities in the fund’s portfolio generally will decline when interest rates rise and increase when interest rates fall. As a result, the fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) may also increase or decrease. An investment in the fund is not a deposit with a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Investments in this fund are subject to the following primary risks:
  • Credit risk arises if an issuer of a fixed income security is unable to meet its financial obligations or goes bankrupt;
  • Credit ratings risk is the risk associated with the fact that ratings by nationally recognized rating agencies generally represent the agencies’ opinion of the credit quality of an issuer and may prove to be inaccurate;
  • Derivatives, such as swap agreements (including credit default swaps and credit default swap index products), options, futures contracts or currency forwards, may involve greater risks than if the fund invested in the reference obligation directly. These instruments are subject to general market risks, liquidity risks, interest rate risks, and credit risks. Derivatives also present the risk that the other party to the transaction will fail to perform.  Derivatives also involve an increased risk of mispricing or improper valuation of the derivative instrument, and imperfect correlation between the value of the derivative and the underlying instrument so that the fund may not realize the intended benefits.  When used for hedging, changes in the value of the derivative may also not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index.  Derivatives can cause the fund to participate in losses (as well as gains) in an amount that significantly exceeds the fund’s initial investment.  The derivatives market may be subject to additional regulations in the future;
  • Fixed income market risk is the risk that market conditions or other events that impact fixed income issuers, including adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, economic or other developments that may cause broad changes in market value, public perceptions concerning these developments, and adverse investor sentiment, will have an adverse effect on the fund. Events in the fixed income markets may lead to periods of volatility, unusual liquidity issues and, in some cases, credit downgrades and increased likelihood of default. Such events may cause the value of securities owned by the fund to go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, and may lead to increased redemptions, which could cause the fund to experience a loss when selling securities to meet redemption requests by shareholders;
  • Foreign security risk is the risk of instability in currency exchange rates, political unrest, economic conditions, custodial arrangements or foreign law changes. The risks associated with investments in governmental or quasi-governmental entities of a foreign country are heightened by the potential for unexpected governmental change and inadequate government oversight. Foreign security risk may also apply to ADRs, GDRs and EDRs;
  • High-yield security risk results from investments in below investment grade bonds, which have a greater risk of loss, are susceptible to rising interest rates and have greater volatility. Investments in high-yield securities (commonly referred to as “junk bonds”) are inherently speculative;
  • Income risk is the risk that the fund’s income could decline due to falling market interest rates.  In a falling interest rate environment, the fund may be required to invest its assets in lower-yielding securities;
  • Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a fund’s investments in fixed income securities will fall when interest rates rise. The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate several times since December 2015 and has signaled additional increases in the near future. Interest rates may rise, perhaps significantly and/or rapidly, potentially resulting in substantial losses to the fund. The effect of increasing interest rates is more pronounced for any intermediate- or longer-term fixed income obligations owned by the fund  For example, if a bond has a duration of seven years, a 1% increase in interest rates could be expected to result in a 7% decrease in the value of the bond;
  • Issuer risk is the risk that the value of a security may decline for a reason directly related to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services;
  • Leverage risk is the risk that the use of financial instruments to increase potential returns, including the use of when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions, and derivatives used for investment (non-hedging) purposes, may cause the fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged.  The use of leverage may also accelerate the velocity of losses and can result in losses to the fund that exceed the amount originally invested;
  • Liquidity risk is the possibility that, during times of widespread market turbulence, trading activity in certain securities may be significantly hampered, which may reduce the returns of the fund because it may be unable to sell the securities at an advantageous price or time;
  • Maturity risk is the risk associated with the fact that the fund will invest in fixed income securities of varying maturities. A fixed income security’s maturity is one indication of the interest rate exposure of a security. Generally, the longer a fixed income security’s maturity, the greater the risk. Conversely, the shorter a fixed income security’s maturity, the lower the risk;
  • Mortgage- and asset-backed security risk, which is possible in an unstable or depressed housing market, arises from the potential for mortgage failure, premature repayment of principal, or a delay in the repayment of principal;
  • Portfolio turnover risk is the risk that performance may be adversely affected by a high rate of portfolio turnover, which generally leads to greater transaction costs;
  • Redemption risk is the risk that, due to a rise in interest rates or other changing government policies that may cause investors to move out of fixed income securities on a large scale, the fund may experience periods of heavy redemptions that could cause the fund to sell assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value; and
  • Valuation risk arises because the securities held by the fund are generally priced by an independent pricing service and may also be priced using dealer quotes or fair valuation methodologies in accordance with valuation procedures adopted by the fund’s Board.  The prices provided by the independent pricing service or dealers or the fair valuations may be different from the prices used by other mutual funds or from the prices at which securities are actually bought and sold.

[3] Carillon Tower Advisers, Inc. ("Carillon") has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fee and/or reimburse certain expenses of the fund to the extent that annual operating expenses of each class exceed a percentage of that class' average daily net assets through February 28, 2019 for Classes A, C, R-3, R-5, and R-6, and through October 31, 2019 for Classes I and Y as follows: Class A – 0.80%, Class C – 1.55%, Class I - 0.40%, Class Y – 0.80%, Class R-3 – 1.05%, Class R-5 – 0.50%, and Class R-6 – 0.40%. This expense limitation excludes interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, short sale dividend and interest expenses, costs relating to investments in other investment companies (acquired fund fees and expenses), dividends, and extraordinary expenses. The contractual fee waiver can be changed only with the approval of a majority of the fund's Board of Trustees. Any reimbursement of fund expenses or reduction in Carillon's investment advisory fees is subject to reimbursement by the fund within the following two fiscal years, if overall expenses fall below the lesser of its then current expense cap or the expense cap in effect at the time of the fund reimbursement.
