Expense Example Narrative [Text Block]

The example below is intended to help you compare the costs of investing in the Fund with the costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes a $10,000 initial investment, 5% annual total return, and that fees and expenses remain the same as in the tables above. To the extent that the Manager is waiving fees or reimbursing expenses, the example assumes that such waiver or reimbursement will only be in place through the date noted above. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

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. Since the Fund commenced operations on or around the date of this Prospectus, no history of the portfolio turnover rate is available.

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock

Under normal circumstances, we invest:

at least 80% of the Fund's net assets in equity securities of domestic issuers.

In pursuing the Fund's investment objective, we seek to produce returns that are similar to those of the Russell 1000® Index, but with lower volatility over a full market cycle. We may invest in equity securities of any market capitalization, but will primarily invest in equity securities of large-capitalization companies, which we define as companies with market capitalizations within the range of the Russell 1000® Index at the time of purchase. The market capitalization range of the Russell 1000® Index was approximately $675 million to $610 billion, as of September 30, 2016. We may invest in any sector, and at times we may emphasize one or more particular sectors.

Our investment process uses multiple risk models to evaluate and forecast the risks for all constituents of the Russell 1000® Index. We then construct a diversified portfolio of stocks with below average forecasted risk characteristics in an effort to achieve market-like returns with considerably less volatility than the U.S. equity market as a whole. We monitor the portfolio's overall risk and the risk of each individual security and either rebalance the portfolio or sell one or more individual securities when those risks increase beyond acceptable levels.

Risk Narrative [Text Block]

rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock

An investment in the Fund may lose money, is not a deposit of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. or its affiliates, is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency, and is primarily subject to the risks briefly summarized below.

Investment Style Risk. Securities of a particular investment style, such as a growth style or value style, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions.

Management Risk. Investment decisions, techniques, analyses or models implemented by a Fund's manager or sub-adviser in seeking to achieve the Fund's investment objective may not produce the returns expected, may cause the Fund's shares to lose value or may cause the Fund to underperform other funds with similar investment objectives.

Market Risk. The values of, and/or the income generated by, securities held by a Fund may decline due to general market conditions or other factors, including those directly involving the issuers of such securities. Security markets are volatile and may decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, regulatory, political, or economic developments. Different sectors of the market and different security types may react differently to such developments.

New Fund Risk. The Fund is a new fund, with a limited or no operating history and a small asset base. There can be no assurance that the Fund will grow to or maintain a viable size. Due to the Fund's small asset base, certain of the Fund's expenses and its portfolio transaction costs may be higher than those of a fund with a larger asset base. To the extent that the Fund does not grow to or maintain a viable size, it may be liquidated, and the expenses, timing and tax consequences of such liquidation may not be favorable to some shareholders.

Regulatory Risk. Pursuant to section 619 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and certain rules promulgated thereunder (collectively known as the "Volcker Rule"), if the Manager and/or its affiliates own 25% or more of the outstanding shares of the Fund more than three years after the Fund's inception date (or such longer period as may be permitted by the Federal Reserve), the Fund will be subject to restrictions on trading that will adversely impact the Fund's ability to execute its investment strategy. Should this occur, the Fund may decide to liquidate, or the Manager and/or its affiliates may be required to reduce their ownership interests in the Fund, either of which may result in gains or losses, increased transaction costs and adverse tax consequences.

Smaller Company Securities Risk. Securities of companies with smaller market capitalizations tend to be more volatile and less liquid than those of larger companies.
