Fixed Assets - Dispose multiple assets at once
Ability to dispose of multiple fixed assets at once.
Purpose: To save users’ time, because the current process is users need to dispose assets one by one.
Hey everyone, thanks for all your valuable feedback and support on this idea here.
It's nice to see tips being shared throughout this thread to help others managing multiple assets. The suggestion to group similar items (like office chairs or laptops) into a single asset with a quantity can be an efficient way to handle things. When you need to dispose of some, you can then perform a partial disposal by updating the quantity, which helps save a few steps.
Wanting to share an update for you all, although I appreciate it will not be the news hoped for - Developing the capability to bulk dispose assets isn't on our current roadmap. We will keep an active eye on the support this continue to build here and be sure to let you know if anything changes here.

@Daniela Caruso - prepare for the pain :-) I had one of that size too and was pretty shocked to discover that they had to be done individually...

I have a client with 218 assets to dispose of. Surely the software should be able to do this in bulk!

Can this be done ASAP - have 157 assets to dispose of for a client right now and its going to be painstaking :(

This is a must have feature that other fixed asset software can do. Suggesting to clients with large registers to use external software to manage given the limitations.

I can't believe this isn't already a feature in 2023, assets needs urgent attention.

There should be a function in XERO Fixed Assets Register to allow bulk dispose assets that are no longer used/sold.
