In 2026, the step-by-step procedure for working in 1C is determined by the installed configuration, its release, enabled features, and user permissions; when recording VAT transactions, the place of supply of goods, works, and services is determined under Article 459 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan, while the rules of Article 515 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan apply to relations between EAEU member states (Articles 459, 515 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan).
Step-by-Step Instructions for 1C 8.3: Where to Start
Before performing any operation, determine which configuration is open and whether the required function is available. The name “1C 8.3” usually indicates the platform version but does not describe the application solution: the interfaces of the accounting software, trade management system, and payroll solution may differ. In 2026, the current release series for the “Accounting for Kazakhstan” configuration is 3.0.74.x, and for “Payroll and HR Management for Kazakhstan” it is 3.1.37.x.
A safe sequence of actions is as follows:
- Confirm the configuration name, its release, and the working database.
- Check the organization for which the operation is being performed.
- Make sure that the correct accounting period is selected.
- Find the required section and create the document.
- Complete the mandatory details and check the contents of the tabular section.
- Post the document and verify the result in the reports provided by the configuration.
- Only after verification should you generate a printable form, report, or the next related document.
If a command is unavailable, this may be due to the program settings or user permissions. The required functionality may first need to be enabled, while certain sections may be hidden for a specific access profile. Do not replace an unavailable command with another document bearing a similar name: first check the functional options, interface, and available permissions.
When adding an existing information database to the launch list, it is important to specify its actual location and select the option to connect an existing database rather than create a new one. Before connecting, determine whether the database is file-based or server-based and use the access parameters provided by the administrator. Before changing the database settings or structure, it is advisable to create a backup in accordance with the procedure adopted by the organization.
How to Install an Extension in 1C
An extension should be installed only from a trusted file intended for the specific configuration and compatible with its release. In the standard interface, the extension management command may be located under Administration → Printable Forms, Reports and Data Processors → Extensions. If this command is unavailable, check the user permissions and the set of available functions.
To add a file, use the Add from File… command in the extension list, select the file, and read the security warning. The exact location of the command and the warning text depend on the configuration and release. Security mechanisms should not be disabled for an unknown file; changing safe mode is permissible only to the extent provided for by the documentation of the trusted extension and the organization’s information security rules.
After installation, proceed as follows:
- Make sure that the extension appears in the list and is connected.
- Check for compatibility messages and loading errors.
- End the current session and reopen the information database if the program requires a restart.
- Find the added commands in the section specified by the extension developer.
- Complete the required access settings and operating parameters.
- Test the extension using an operation that does not modify critical data.
- Grant access only to users who require it for their job duties.
The extension can be used after it has loaded successfully, the required settings have been completed, and compatibility has been verified. If it does not appear, check its connection status, the startup message log, whether the extension version matches the configuration release, and whether the session needs to be restarted. The registration procedure and set of additional settings are determined by the extension itself and are not uniform across all products.
Customer Orders: Creation, Shipment, and Payment
In configurations that support order accounting, the order function is enabled in the sales section settings. In some solutions, the relevant setting is located under Master Data and Administration → Master Data and Section Settings → Sales, and after it is enabled, the documents are available in the Sales section. The names of subsections and commands should be checked against the interface of the installed configuration.
To create an order, open the customer order list and click Create. Complete the customer, counterparty, organization, warehouse, and agreement fields if these details are provided for by the database settings. In the tabular section, specify the item, quantity, price, and other mandatory information. Before posting, check the organization, warehouse, terms of sale, and list of goods, and then click Post and Close.
To record a sale based on an order, use the configuration’s command for creating the related sales document. If the order uses a status or action for shipment, set it only after checking the available quantity and order terms. Information from the order may be transferred to the sales document automatically; however, the organization, counterparty, warehouse, goods, quantity, and date must be checked before posting.
For a cash payment, the related cash document is created from the order, the sales document, or the banking and cash section, depending on the configuration and the adopted processing sequence. In the document, check the organization, cash desk, payer, amount, payment basis, and the cash flow item provided for by the settings.
For a non-cash payment, use the receipt of funds document provided by the installed solution. Bank details, number, date, amount, and payment basis are completed according to the bank document. The bank processing indicator is set when this corresponds to the actual execution of the payment and the procedure for recording banking transactions in the configuration being used.
Before closing an order, check its fulfillment status and related documents. If the organization’s accounting rules provide for closure only after shipment and payment, make sure that the sales and receipt of funds documents have been prepared and relate to the required order. Creating an order in itself does not confirm the shipment of goods or receipt of payment.
For VAT purposes, the place of supply is relevant when goods are sold. It is deemed to be the Republic of Kazakhstan if transportation of the goods begins in Kazakhstan and, for goods that are not transported, if the goods are transferred to the recipient in Kazakhstan (Article 459 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan). Separate place-of-supply criteria established by the same article apply to works and services.
1C:Payroll and HR Management and Modernization of Fixed Assets
For queries such as “1C:Payroll and HR Management step-by-step instructions” and “1C:Payroll and HR Management 8.3 instructions,” knowing only the platform version is insufficient. The procedure for payroll calculation, HR administration, and report preparation depends on the configuration edition, release, organization settings, and user permissions. For “Payroll and HR Management for Kazakhstan,” the current 3.1.37.x series serves as the reference point in 2026; the specific path to a document should be determined according to the installed release.
The same principle applies when recording the modernization of a fixed asset in 1C 8.3 for Kazakhstan. Before entering the document, determine the accounting item, substance and date of the transaction, composition of costs, and the organization’s adopted decision on how to record them. Then select the document provided by the configuration and check how the fixed asset information has changed in the accounting registers and reports.
It is important for an accountant to distinguish between the technical posting of a document and the legal assessment of a transaction. The result in the program depends on the selected document, accounting settings, and entered details. Therefore, after posting, check the document movements, asset card, related registers, and final reports, and compare the classification of costs and the date of their recognition with the organization’s accounting policy and the applicable laws of Kazakhstan.
If the modernization involves works or services provided by a counterparty from an EAEU member state, their place of supply is determined under the rules of Article 515 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The place of supply of works and services directly related to immovable property located in the relevant EAEU member state, as well as works and services related to movable property or vehicles located there, is deemed to be the territory of that EAEU member state (Article 515 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan). For transactions with other non-residents, the criteria of Article 459 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan apply, including the location of immovable property related to the services or the place where works and services involving movable property are actually performed (Article 459 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan).
The taxable turnover for works and services acquired from a non-resident is determined based on their value specified in the certificate of completed works or services rendered or, if there is no certificate, in another document confirming the performance of works or rendering of services. When payment is made in a foreign currency, the amount is converted into tenge at the official exchange rate on the date of the turnover (Article 463 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan).
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is there no “Customer Orders” section in 1C? — Check whether order accounting is supported by the installed configuration, whether the relevant functional option is enabled in the sales settings, and whether the user has the required permissions.
Can one set of step-by-step instructions be used for all 1C 8.3 programs? — No. The platform may be the same, but the set of documents, section names, settings, and sequence of operations depend on the configuration and its release.
Why did the extension not appear after installation? — Check whether the file has been loaded and connected, whether the extension is compatible with the configuration release, whether there are any error messages, and whether the session needed to be restarted. Additional registration is required only when provided for by the extension itself.
When can a customer order be closed? — When the closing conditions established by the organization’s sales process and configuration settings have been met. Before closing, check the order status and the related shipment and payment documents.
Where can I find instructions for modernizing fixed assets or working in 1C:Payroll and HR Management? — Use the description specifically intended for the installed configuration and release. For the payroll solution, the current series in 2026 is 3.1.37.x; however, the set of commands also depends on the database settings and user permissions.
How is the place of supply determined when recording a transaction in 1C? — The criterion is selected based on the type of transaction, counterparty, and actual circumstances. The rules of Article 515 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan apply to relations between EAEU member states (Article 515 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan). In other cases, the place where transportation begins is taken into account for transported goods, the place of transfer for goods that are not transported, and the criteria of Article 459 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan apply to works and services (Article 459 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan).
