Fixed Assets - Negative fixed asset
Fixed Assets - ability to have a negative fixed asset for when an asset has devalued and the revaluation is therefore negative.

Agree re second element which could be negative eg for grant offsets

The ability to have a changeable flag on fixed assets to indicate their being at cost or valuation would be good also.

Where accounts are being audited, the inability to have a negative revaluation is imperative. I am going to have to spend a great deal of time exporting reports to Excel and then making manual adjustments (which won't be reflected in Xero for the following year, so I will have to redo this each and every year). I just can't understand why there would be a function for positive revaluation but not a negative one.

If a F-A is subject to a Valuation, that valuation may go down as well as up. A Negative F-A fixes this problem.

Ideally there should be a way to input Second Element of an asset - so Grants/Discounts received from assets purchase are recorded properly

This is important also for when grants are received for fixed asset purchases
