How to update a depreciation schedule in Zato

How to refresh both the GL balances and the depreciation schedule after making changes in Xero.

If you have made changes to your depreciation schedule in Xero, you need to update both the schedule and the General Ledger (GL) balances in Zato. Each uses a different update method.

To update Balance per GL

Upload the Trial Balance from the Chart of Accounts (CoA) Mapping screen. Navigate to Jobs, then Job Setup, then CoA Mapping, and click Upload Trial Balance. This refreshes all GL balances including Fixed Assets.

To update Closing book value as per asset schedule

  1. Go to the Data Sources page for the job.
  2. Delete the old Depreciation Schedule.
  3. Run the automation.
  4. Import the new, updated Depreciation Schedule.
  5. Run the automation again to bring the updated balance into the workpaper.

Always upload the complete depreciation schedule, do not upload a partial or incremental update. You need to run the automation twice: once after deleting the old schedule, and once after importing the new one.
