This is a standard program for accounting and tax accounting under Kazakhstani legislation — a basic solution for automating accounting in trade, services, manufacturing and other business areas. The product exists in several editions: from the Basic version for small companies to the extended PROF version, and there is also a training version for those who are just learning accounting.

Who it's for

The program is suitable for organizations of any scale — from a small sole proprietor to a company with several legal entities. If you keep records manually in Excel or on an outdated version of 1C and want to put everything in order in line with current RK regulations — this is the tool worth switching to. The training version is separately aimed at students and beginners who are learning accounting and want to practice on a real program without risk to working data.

What tasks it covers and what's included

At its core is edition 3.0 with the "Taxi" interface: quick access to documents, a key performance indicators monitor on the desktop, automatic updating of the platform and configuration. Practically significant features include:

- accounting of inventory, fixed assets, trade operations, settlements with counterparties, payroll and HR;

- multi-company accounting — several organizations in a single information base, convenient for related business activities;

- accounting by structural divisions without a separate balance sheet — for more accurate cost allocation;

- flexible allocation of overhead and indirect costs;

- direct exchange with banks and integration with 1C:WebKassa;

- flexible report customization for your tasks;

- preparation of tax reporting and work with e-invoices (ESF).

It is possible and recommended to add a 1C:ITS agreement to the program — this is ongoing support from 1C and Slava KVC: consultation line, reporting form updates, internet support. Separately, at our 1C Training Center No. 5, you can train an accountant or the whole team to work with the program.

When to get it — and when not to

It's worth getting if you need full-fledged, legally up-to-date accounting with room to grow — multi-company operations, branches, manufacturing, flexible cost analytics. If you have simple retail or a small store without complex accounting — it may be more reasonable to look at 1C:Retail, which is tailored specifically for trade processes. For personnel management and payroll calculation as a separate task, there is 1C:Payroll and HR Management. And if you need automation of manufacturing and management processes as a whole — that's a different class of solutions, ERP-level.

If the company is quite small and accounting is not complex, the Basic version may be enough — don't overpay for PROF unnecessarily, discuss this with us during a consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the Basic version and PROF?

This is not detailed in the product card — check with a manager when choosing, based on the scale and tasks of your company.

Is it mandatory to buy 1C:ITS together with the program?

Formally no, but it is highly recommended — without ITS you don't get reporting form updates and the consultation line, which is critical given regular changes in legislation.

Can I learn to work with the program after purchase?

Yes, 1C Training Center No. 5 provides training for accountants and employees to work in 1C.
