    Hi everyone, thanks for joining and supporting this idea.

    We understand there are a few different use cases for why you'd like to attach a file to an asset within the Fixed Assets register, as well as transactions themselves.


    To be upfront our team's current focus, like many areas of Xero, is on upgrading Fixed Asset technology, as we build greater consistency between Xero experiences, making it easier to learn and navigate Xero. Some of these changes may seem minor, but are critical in terms of delivering new and exciting value later on.

    That being said, our team is researching what comes next and this is a focus because it is the most supported idea for Fixed Assets right now.


    As we continue forming the future of Fixed Assets in Xero, we'll share if there’s any updates.

    This is important and would significantly add to the flexibility of the fixed asset register.
    1) As some people have pointed out, there are many variations and scenarios where they might want to file the orginal documentation with other expenses for a "new" asset.
    2) People may also record other useful information about assets, including user manuals, service schedule, maintenance etc.

    The simplest option would perhaps be adding a document link button to the existing notes field.
