    Hi community, first off thank you for contributing and detailing why posting manual journals in a foreign currency is of interest to you all.

    We appreciate our customers would like to see more capability in accounting for and dealing in foreign currencies across Xero.

    In it's current form Manual Journals are a part of Xero that require some upgrade to uplift technology in order to provide capability for ideas like this to be considered. We have intentions of bringing attention to this over the coming year, however getting this done first is necessary before we can even think about adding newer functionality like journaling in another currency to the mix.

    To set the expectation here, there is no work planned over 2023 for this feature. We know it's of high interest and when we're in a place to reassess we will share with you here.

    Allow journal entries to be entered in foreign currency and converted to base currency as some companies need to report in both when shareholder company is in one country but operating company is in a different country, difficult to reconcile due to/from and inter-company transactions when the two companies are in different currencies

    Hi everyone, thanks for sharing your support for part disposal of Fixed Assets in Xero.  Being transparent - current work for the team requires focus on upgrades to Fixed Asset technology. 


    However, we’re thinking of what comes next and partial disposal of an asset figures strongly in this. Please continue to detail your particular use cases here in Product Ideas.


    As we continue forming the future of Fixed Assets in Xero insights from Product Ideas here will feed into the team's plans.

    Agreed, this is a basic critical feature that should be part of any accounting program, this needs addressing. This causes imbalance in fixed asset module if people start using manual entries to fix costs and accumulated depreciation to avoid the removal of complete asset to add back in partial (which makes no accounting sense)
