The Share Data Pack

The BGL Contract Note Service will automatically upload buy and sell transactions (including PDFs of contract/confirmation notes) to SF360 from all major Australian Brokers.

  • Automatically process disposals and calculate CGT from any SELL transactions
  • Attach source document PDF transactions and upload them into Simple Fund 360
