    Hey team, thanks for all your input on partial asset disposal.

    We understand that manually managing parts of an asset can be time-consuming. While we don't have plans at this time to develop a built-in feature, your feedback's really helpful in showing us where things could improve.

    For now, manual methods to calculate depreciation and record journal entries to keep things accurate would be the best option.

    However, this is a feature that we'd like to revisit as we plan our future roadmaps, and will be happy to share if there is any traction around this. Please keep sharing this idea with any colleagues you feel could benefit from this too.

    It would be beneficial for our clients for Xero to implement partial disposal. My client has had a situation where a fire damaged part of several of their assets (insurance has assessed a certain percentage). These assets have been in existence for a number of years so there is accumulated depreciation. Difficult to adjust prior periods if the accounts have been audited. I've had to create a manual spreadsheet outside of the system and manual journals as a workaround.
