Expense Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseNarrativeTextBlock

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Bond Fund. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your family invest or agree to invest in the future, at least $200,000 in Cavanal Hill Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available from your financial professional and in the section “Initial Sales Charge (Bond and Equity Funds, Class A Shares Only)” on page 43 of the prospectus and “Contingent Deferred Sales Charges (CDSC-Class A and C Only)” on page 44 in the prospectus and in the section “Additional Purchase and Redemption Information” on page 34 of the Statement of Additional Information. An investor transacting in Institutional Shares, which do not have any front-end sales charge, contingent deferred sales charge, or other asset-based fee for sales or distribution, may be required to pay a commission to a broker or other financial intermediary for effecting such transactions on an agency basis. Such commissions are not reflected in the tables or the example below. Shares of the Fund are available in other share classes that have different fees and expenses.

Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock

The Bond 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 36% 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 and each year that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Strategy [Heading] rr_StrategyHeading Principal Investment Strategy
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock

To pursue its objective, the Fund invests, under normal market conditions, primarily in debt obligations such as bonds, notes and debentures, and bills issued by U.S. corporations or by the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities, municipal securities, mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations and fixed income ETFs. Such debt obligations are “investment grade,” rated within the four highest ratings categories assigned by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization, or, if not rated, found by the Adviser under guidelines approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees to be of comparable quality. The Fund also invests in money market instruments.

Total return is defined as a percentage change, over a specified time period, in a mutual fund’s net asset value, with the ending net asset value adjusted to account for the reinvestment of all distributions of dividends and capital gains.

If the rating of a security is downgraded after purchase, the portfolio management team will determine whether it is in the best interest of the Fund’s shareholders to continue to hold the security. In making that determination, the factors considered at the time of purchase are reviewed. The Fund does not apply an automatic sale trigger.

The Fund will generally maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of three to ten years.

In managing the portfolio, the portfolio management team searches for inefficiencies not only at the macro, or top down level, but also at the individual security level. Purchase and sale decisions are based on the Adviser’s judgment about issuers, risk, prices of securities, market conditions, potential returns, and other economic factors.

Under normal circumstances the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in bonds. This policy will not be changed without at least 60 days prior notice to shareholders.

Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of any bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
Bond Fund | Interest Rate Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Interest Rate Risk — The value of the Fund’s interest-bearing investments may decline due to an increase in interest rates. In general, the longer a security’s maturity, the greater the interest rate risk. For a portfolio with a duration of 3 years, each 1% rise in interest rates would reduce the value of the portfolio by an estimated 3%. The Fund’s yield may decrease due to a decline in interest rates. Very low or negative interest rates may magnify interest rate risk. Recent and any future declines in interest rate levels could cause the Fund’s earnings to fall below the Fund’s expense ratio, resulting in a negative yield and a decline in the Fund’s share price. Changing interest rates, including rates that fall below zero, may have unpredictable effects on markets, may result in heightened market volatility and may detract from Fund performance to the extent the Fund is exposed to such interest rates.
Bond Fund | Credit Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Credit Risk — Credit risk is the possibility that the issuer of a debt instrument or a counterparty to an agreement fails to fulfill its obligations, reducing the Fund’s return. This includes failure by a bond issuer to repay interest and principal.
Bond Fund | Liquidity Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Liquidity Risk — Certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time and the price that would normally prevail in the market. The portfolio manager may have to lower the price, sell other securities instead or forego an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Fund management or performance. This includes the risk of missing out on an investment opportunity because the assets necessary to take advantage of it are tied up in less advantageous investments. If a Fund is required to sell securities quickly or at a particular time (including sales to meet redemption requests) the Fund could realize a loss.
Bond Fund | Prepayment/Call Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Prepayment/Call Risk — There is a chance that the repayment of an asset-backed or mortgage-backed obligation will occur sooner than expected. Call risk is the possibility that, during periods of falling interest rates, a bond issuer will “call”— or repay — its bond before the bond’s maturity date.
Bond Fund | Market Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Market Risk — The value of the Fund’s assets will fluctuate as the markets in which the Fund invests fluctuate. The value of the Fund’s investments may decline, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, simply because of economic changes or other events, such as inflation (or expectations for inflation), deflation (or expectations for deflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, market instability, debt crises and downgrades, embargoes, tariffs, sanctions and other trade barriers, regulatory events, other governmental trade or market control programs and related geopolitical events. In addition, the value of the Fund’s investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of global events such as war, military conflict, acts of terrorism, social unrest, environmental disasters, natural disasters or events, recessions, supply chain disruptions, political instability, and infectious disease epidemics or pandemics.
Bond Fund | Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk — The value of the Fund’s mortgage-backed securities can fall if the owners of the underlying mortgages pay off their mortgages sooner than expected, which could happen when interest rates fall, or later than expected, which could happen when interest rates rise. If the underlying mortgages are paid off sooner than expected, the Fund may have to reinvest this money in mortgage-backed or other securities that have lower yields.
Bond Fund | Collateralized Mortgage Obligations Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Collateralized Mortgage Obligations Risk — There are risks associated with collateralized mortgage obligations that relate to the risks of the underlying mortgage pass-through securities (i.e., an increase or decrease in prepayment rates, resulting from a decrease or increase in mortgage interest rates, will affect the yield, average life, and price of collateralized mortgage obligations).
Bond Fund | Asset-Backed Securities Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Asset-Backed Securities Risk — Payment of interest and repayment of principal may be impacted by the cash flows generated by the assets backing asset-backed securities. The value of the Fund’s asset-backed securities may also be affected by changes in interest rates, the availability of information concerning the interests in and structure of the pools of purchase contracts, financing leases or sales agreements that are represented by these securities, the creditworthiness of the servicing agent for the pool, the originator of the loans or receivables, or the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds, or other credit enhancements.
Bond Fund | Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) Risk — The ETFs in which the Fund invests are subject to the risks applicable to the types of securities and investments used by the ETFs. Because an ETF charges its own fees and expenses, fund shareholders will indirectly bear these costs. The use of leverage in an ETF can magnify any price movements, resulting in high volatility. Due to daily rebalancing, leverage, and liquidity, inverse ETFs may perform worse than the inverse movement of the underlying referenced financial asset, index or commodity’s return.
Bond Fund | Valuation Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Valuation Risk — The risk associated with the assessment of appropriate pricing in a changing market where trading information may not be readily available.
Bond Fund | Management Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Management Risk — There is no guarantee that the investment techniques and risk analyses used by the Fund’s portfolio managers will produce the desired results.
Bond Fund | Regulatory Risk [Member]  
Risk/Return: rr_RiskReturnAbstract  
Risk [Text Block] rr_RiskTextBlock •  Regulatory Risk — The risk that a change in laws or regulations will materially affect a security, business, sector or market. A change in laws or regulations made by the government or a regulatory body can increase the costs of operating a business, reduce the attractiveness of investment and/or change the competitive landscape. Regulatory risk also includes the risk associated with federal and state laws which may restrict the remedies that a lender has when a borrower defaults on loans. These laws include restrictions on foreclosures, redemption rights after foreclosure, federal and state bankruptcy and debtor relief laws, restrictions on “due on sale” clauses, and state usury laws.
