Run the Depreciation Schedule report (New)
Run the Depreciation Schedule to display your organization's depreciation and fixed asset value.
About the Depreciation Schedule
- The Depreciation Schedule is an improved report. It replaces the previous Depreciation Schedule, which you can still run.
- Although you can run this report from any date, we recommend you run it from a date on or after you started depreciating fixed assets in Xero. If you run it from a date earlier than this, the figures may not be correct.
The Depreciation Schedule displays data from registered items in your fixed assets register. It's good practice to first update your fixed asset register and run depreciation before you run the Depreciation Schedule.
- You can choose how the report groups transactions, and what extra details it displays.
Run the Depreciation Schedule
- In the Reports menu, select All Reports.
- Under Fixed Assets, click ... to expand the section if the report is hidden.
- Click Depreciation Schedule (New).
- Select a date range, then click Update to view your report.

The number of display options included in your report determines the orientation of the report, when exported to PDF. Xero will first look at the minimum width required for the date and numerical columns. Any remaining space will then be equally split across text columns.
We'd recommend keeping all text columns together on the left of the report, so that the format of the report is kept tidy.
