    Add Capital Works Worksheet to SMSF Tax – Deductions

    Problem
    In the SMSF tax return, the Capital Works (Division 43) deduction does not include a worksheet. While users can manually enter a total amount, there is no built‑in worksheet to calculate or track the capital works deduction.
    This creates a gap in functionality, as accountants must maintain a separate external worksheet to calculate capital works depreciation and then manually transfer the result into Xero.
    Why this matters
    Capital works deductions are very common and material for SMSFs that hold property. Without an integrated worksheet:

    Calculations are more time‑consuming
    There is a higher risk of errors or inconsistencies
    Review, audit, and year‑to‑year comparison is harder
    Documentation is kept outside Xero, reducing data integrity and efficiency

    A capital works worksheet is just as important as other depreciation schedules for SMSFs investing in real property.
    Suggested improvement
    Please add a Capital Works (Division 43) depreciation worksheet within the Deductions section of the SMSF tax return, similar to other tax calculation worksheets.
    Ideally, the worksheet would allow users to:

    Enter construction cost and dates
    Automatically calculate deductible amounts
    Track opening balance, additions, deductions, and closing balance
    Carry forward balances year‑to‑year

    Benefit
    This enhancement would significantly improve accuracy, efficiency, and compliance for SMSF accountants and advisers, especially for funds holding property.
