The 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 hold or 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. The one-year example and the first year of the three-, five- and ten-years examples are based on net operating expenses, which reflect the fee waiver and expense limitation agreements by BNY Mellon Investment Adviser, Inc.

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.

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.

Prospectus Summary | Dreyfus Government Cash Management | · 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 Government Cash Management | · 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 Government Cash Management | · 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 Government Cash Management | · 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 Government Cash Management | · 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. If this occurs, the fund may suffer a loss if the proceeds from the sale of the underlying securities are less than the repurchase price.
Prospectus Summary | Dreyfus Government Cash Management | · Market risk  
Risk/Return: oef_RiskReturnAbstract  
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.  . In addition, turbulence in financial markets and reduced liquidity in fixed-income markets may negatively affect many issuers, which could adversely affect the fund. Global economies and financial markets are becoming increasingly interconnected, and conditions and events in one country, region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market. These risks may be magnified if certain events or developments adversely interrupt the global supply chain; in these and other circumstances, such risks might affect companies world-wide. Local, regional or global events such as war, military conflicts, acts of terrorism, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, elevated levels of government debt,

changes in trade regulation or economic sanctions, internal unrest and discord, or other events could have a significant impact on the fund and its investments.
