Change to Fund Commencement Date data field format from Numeric to Alphanumeric

Currently, mFund products that have not been formally admitted to the ASX mFund Settlement Service have the Fund Commencement Date data field disseminated in the ReferencePoint Master List mFund PDS and Profile Details (E15) with an arbitrary value of 31 December 2029. This arbitrary date represents a blank or a future commencement date value for the not yet active mFund instrument. 

Effective Monday 13 March 2017, the Fund Commencement Date data field format will change from numeric to alphanumeric to enable dissemination of a blank value.  The blank value will replace the arbitrary value of 31 December 2029 currently disseminated for mFund products that have not been formally admitted to the ASX mFund Settlement Service.
