Migrate data from an existing fund
When we refer to Migration Start Year, we are referring to the year before you will start recording your transactions in Mclowd. For example, you decide to use Mclowd from 1 July 2019 (2019/20 income year). Your migration start year is the year ending 30 June 2019 (prior year).
