RouterOSv7 provides with new and redesigned implementation of User Manager, configuration now is integrated into RouterOS WinBox and console, more information is available here. Direct migration from older User Manager is not possible, it is possible to migrate older database from  /user-manager/database/migrate-legacy-db However it might be a good idea to start configuration for the scratch.
