How To

  • From the Home Dashboard > Select Transitions from the left navigation > Analysis Tool option

  • Select an Account linked to SMArtX - On-Platform or enter information for accounts that are Off-Platform

    • *Off Platform requires an Upload Tax Lot csv (See details in platform)

  • Choose the target weights for 100% of the tradable assets

  • Use the Help Find Models tool if you want to identify SMArtX strategies that match your current holdings and reduce unnecessary trades

  • Set a tax budget - Pick between 0% and 100% of the full gain, or input a custom tax budget to manage short and long-term limits

  • Or Add A Custom Budget

  • Open the Transition Scheduler to automate the process. Set a recurring schedule so the system can attempt to liquidate losses and offsetting gains as you specified until transition completion.

  • Review the Allocation Summary to see proposed realized gains and losses, along with the new sleeve breakdown

  • When everything looks good, select Continue and review the final page, click Submit to process the transition and create the ongoing transition sleeve
