    Many of our clients use cash basis - It is getting very hard to setup the fixed assets first and then go through the process of entering the depreciation through a manual journal. Please FIX it.

  • Jasmine Liu commented  ·   ·  Report

    I don't understand how the cash basis report would exclude the depreciation. Shouldn't all manual journals be cash basis? Why the depreciation is different?

  • Lisa McMahon commented  ·   ·  Report

    Hi, I spend hours each month doing manual journals for my clients to get the fixed assets in the profit and loss as most of my clients are on cash accounting. Hopefully this can be fixed soon.

    In which parallel universe is it a good idea for the accounting software vendor to make deprecation journals and the cash basis of accounting incompatible?

  • Tony Jensch commented  ·   ·  Report

    I am having more requests from cash basis reporting clients who want to run an asset register (Fixed Assets) and have reporting visibility on cash basis reports for immediate asset write off/depreciation

    Having a lot of micro businesses on STS, this is one of the reasons we have retained handiledger to prepare financial statements. Come on Xero, a **** of a lot of your customers will operate on a cash basis!

    I would like to be able to run depreciation on cash basis financials without having to make two journal entries. Can we have a button that said (cash basis with depreciation)

  • Tash Lennon commented  ·   ·  Report

    Definitely something that needs to be fixed, too much time spent to try and fix only to then realise it was a Xero issue and not a user issue. Very frustrating!

    Please fix immediately! otherwise there no piont to recommend customers to use xero.

    Please fix immediately! otherwise there no piont to recommend customers to use xero.

  • Felicity Huuma commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please fix this so we can see the depreciation expense in a cash basis report

  • Tina Soedjak commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please Xero, hear our voices. I believe other user clients will have the same issue. Please fix this functionality of being able to see the depreciation in a cash basis report, when the Fixed Asset is used.
