| Performance Narrative [Text Block] | The bar chart and table that follow provide an indication of the risks of investing in the Portfolio by showing changes in the performance of the Portfolio from year to year. As of the date of this Prospectus, Admin Shares had not commenced operations. Admin Shares would have similar annual returns when compared with Premier Shares because each class is invested in the same portfolio of securities. The annual return of Premier Shares would differ from those of Admin Shares only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses (i.e., because Admin Shares are estimated to have a higher total annual expense ratio than Premier shares, the performance for Admin shares would be lower). The Portfolio’s past performance is not necessarily an indication of how the Portfolio will perform in the future. Updated performance information for the Portfolio is available and may be obtained on the Portfolio’s website at www.northerntrust.com/united‑states/what‑we‑do/investment‑management/northern‑funds/funds‑and‑performance‑institutional or by calling 800‑637‑1380.
