Strategy [Heading] | oef_StrategyHeading | Principal Investment Strategy | ||||
Strategy Narrative [Text Block] | oef_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock | The fund pursues its investment objective by investing only in government securities (i.e., securities issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities, including those with floating or variable rates of interest), repurchase agreements collateralized solely by government securities and/or cash, and cash. The fund is a money market fund subject to the maturity, quality, liquidity and diversification requirements of Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and seeks to maintain a stable share price of $1.00. The fund is a "government money market fund," as that term is defined in Rule 2a-7, and as such is required to invest at least 99.5% of its total assets in securities issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities, repurchase agreements collateralized solely by cash and/or government securities, and cash. Under normal conditions, the fund will invest its assets so that at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowing for investment purposes) are invested in government securities and/or repurchase agreements that are collateralized fully by government securities. The securities in which the fund invests include those backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, which include U.S. Treasury securities as well as securities issued by certain agencies of the U.S. government, and those that are neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. government. The fund invests in securities issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities and seeks to enter into repurchase agreements that present minimal credit risk, based on an assessment by Dreyfus, a division of Mellon Investments Corporation, the fund's sub-adviser, of the issuer's, guarantor's or counterparty's credit quality and capacity to meet its financial obligations, among other factors. Shares of the fund are intended to qualify as eligible investments for federally chartered credit unions. The fund intends to review changes in the applicable laws, rules and regulations governing eligible investments for federally chartered credit unions, and to take such action as may be necessary to ensure that shares of the fund qualify as eligible investments under the Federal Credit Union Act and the regulations thereunder. Shares of the fund, however, may or may not qualify as eligible investments for particular state-chartered credit unions. A state-chartered credit union should consult its legal counsel to determine whether the fund is a permissible investment under the laws applicable to it. |

Risk/Return: | oef_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||
Risk [Text Block] | oef_RiskTextBlock | Principal Risks An investment in the fund is not a bank account or a bank deposit. It is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other government agency. You could lose money by investing in the fund. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. The fund's yield will fluctuate as the short-term securities in its portfolio mature or are sold and the proceeds are reinvested in securities with different interest rates. BNY Mellon Investment Adviser, Inc. and its affiliates are not required to reimburse the fund for losses, and you should not expect that BNY Mellon Investment Adviser, Inc. or its affiliates will provide financial support to the fund at any time, including during periods of market stress. The following are the principal risks that could reduce the fund's income level and/or share price: |

Prospectus Summary | Dreyfus Institutional Preferred Government Money Market Fund | · Interest rate risk | ||||||
Risk/Return: | oef_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||
Risk [Text Block] | oef_RiskTextBlock | · Interest rate risk: This risk refers to the decline in the prices of fixed-income securities that may accompany a rise in the overall level of interest rates. A sharp and unexpected rise in interest rates could impair the fund's ability to maintain a stable net asset value. A wide variety of market factors can cause interest rates to rise, including central bank monetary policy, rising inflation and changes in general economic conditions. It is difficult to predict the pace at which central banks or monetary authorities may increase (or decrease) interest rates or the timing, frequency, or magnitude of such changes. Changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on markets, may result in heightened market volatility and may detract from fund performance. For floating and variable rate obligations, there may be a lag between an actual change in the underlying interest rate benchmark and the reset time for an interest payment of such an obligation, which could harm or benefit the fund, depending on the interest rate environment or other circumstances. |

Prospectus Summary | Dreyfus Institutional Preferred Government Money Market Fund | · Liquidity risk | ||||||
Risk/Return: | oef_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||
Risk [Text Block] | oef_RiskTextBlock | · Liquidity risk: When there is little or no active trading market for specific types of securities, it can become more difficult to sell the securities in a timely manner at or near their perceived value. In such a market, the value of such securities may fall dramatically, potentially impairing the fund's ability to maintain a stable net asset value. |
||||
Prospectus Summary | Dreyfus Institutional Preferred Government Money Market Fund | · U.S. Treasury securities risk | ||||||
Risk/Return: | oef_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||
Risk [Text Block] | oef_RiskTextBlock | · U.S. Treasury securities risk: A security backed by the U.S. Treasury or the full faith and credit of the United States is guaranteed only as to the timely payment of interest and principal when held to maturity, but the market prices for such securities are not guaranteed and will fluctuate. |
||||
Prospectus Summary | Dreyfus Institutional Preferred Government Money Market Fund | · Government securities risk | ||||||
Risk/Return: | oef_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||
Risk [Text Block] | oef_RiskTextBlock | · Government securities risk: Not all obligations of the U.S. government, its agencies and instrumentalities are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury. Some obligations are backed only by the credit of the issuing agency or instrumentality, and in some cases there may be some risk of default by the issuer. Any guarantee by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities of a security held by the fund does not apply to the market value of such security or to shares of the fund itself. |

Prospectus Summary | Dreyfus Institutional Preferred Government Money Market Fund | · Repurchase agreement counterparty risk | ||||||
Risk/Return: | oef_RiskReturnAbstract | |||||
Risk [Text Block] | oef_RiskTextBlock | · Repurchase agreement counterparty risk: The fund is subject to the risk that a counterparty in a repurchase agreement could fail to honor the terms of the agreement. |

Risk [Text Block] | oef_RiskTextBlock | · Market risk: The value of the securities in which the fund invests may be affected by political, regulatory, economic and social developments. Events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issue, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on the fund and its investments. Recent examples include pandemic risks related to COVID-19 and aggressive measures taken world-wide in response by governments, including closing borders, restricting international and domestic travel, and the imposition of prolonged quarantines of large populations, and by businesses, including changes to operations and reducing staff. |
