Checked on release 3.0.74.2 "Accounting for Kazakhstan" (version 3.0).
You are closing the quarter and sitting down to prepare the declaration. The LLP has two lines of revenue — wholesale trade and installation services. You need to show income for each direction separately: some have their own profitability, others have a separate tax regime. You open the turnover for account 6010 — and there is one total amount, without breakdown. There is no separate accounting. The reason is almost always the same: the type of activity is not specified in the sales documents, and the "Types of Activities" directory is either empty or poorly organized. Let's figure out how to bring order here once and for all.
1. Purpose
The "Types of Activities" directory is your classifier for business directions. It serves as analytics (subaccount) for separate accounting of income and expenses, is linked to the OKED, helps correctly allocate revenue by tax regimes, and fill out tax forms (910.00, 913.00, etc.).
2. Where to find
- Through the section: "Directories" → "Income and Expenses" → "Types of Activities" (in terms of releases, the path goes through "Main" → "Settings" → "Types of Activities", or through the "All Functions" feature).
- Direct navigation link in 1C:
e1cib/list/Directory.TypesOfActivities
To open via the link: main menu (☰ icon in the upper left corner) → "Service" → "Go to navigation link" → paste the line above → "Go". The list will open immediately, even if you do not remember the path through the menu.
2a. How to find out your release
Menu "Help" → "About the program". In the opened window, you will see the platform version (for example, 8.3.24) and configuration release — a line like "Accounting for Kazakhstan, version 3.0 (3.0.74.2)". It is the configuration release that you should check against the header of this manual: the set of fields and printed forms changes from version to version.
3. How to fill out
You open the list and click "Create". There are not many fields, but each one affects accounting.
| Field | Purpose | What will happen if filled incorrectly |
|---|---|---|
| Name (MANDATORY) | This is what you will select in documents and see in reports. Write meaningfully: "Wholesale Trade", "Installation Services", "Retail Trade". | If empty — the item will not be saved (1C will not allow you to record it). A vague name like "Other" — later you won't be able to distinguish the revenue. |
| Code | Internal item number, assigned automatically. | Usually, you do not touch it. Manual duplication of the code will lead to confusion in the list. |
| OKED Code / type of activity according to OKED | Link to the general classifier of types of economic activities. Needed for statistics and correct filling of declarations. | Incorrect OKED — discrepancy with data in the taxpayer's cabinet and in statistical reporting. |
| Tax regime / activity sign | If you operate under different regimes (general, simplified, retail tax), the type of activity helps allocate income to the correct form. | An error will lead to income being recorded in the wrong declaration (910.00 instead of 913.00 and vice versa). |
| Group | A folder for grouping if there are many types of activities. | Does not affect accounting, only convenience. |
Practical advice: create the type of activity once and carefully. Then it "sticks" to dozens of sales documents, and renaming it is easy, but deleting it with movements is no longer possible.
4. An example with entries
Condition. LLP "Astana-Stroy", VAT payer, general regime. It operates two lines: "Wholesale Trade" and "Installation Services". In March 2026, it sells a batch of materials for 1,160,000 ₸ including VAT. The cost of goods is 700,000 ₸.
The VAT rate in 2026 is 16%. Let's calculate:
- Amount excluding VAT: 1,160,000 ÷ 1.16 = 1,000,000 ₸
- VAT 16%: 160,000 ₸
In the document "Sale of Goods and Services" in the line of the tabular part (or in the header — depending on the settings), select the type of activity "Wholesale Trade". When processing, the following entries are formed:
| Debit | Credit | Amount, ₸ | Analytics (subaccount) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1210 | 6010 | 1,000,000 | Type of activity: Wholesale Trade |
| 1210 | 3130 | 160,000 | VAT payable |
| 7010 | 1330 | 700,000 | Cost of goods sold |
The total receivable from the buyer (1210) is 1,160,000 ₸. Income (6010) is recorded under the analytics "Wholesale Trade".
Now for installation services for 348,000 ₸ including VAT (VAT 16% = 48,000, base 300,000) you select the type of activity "Installation Services" — and the income of 300,000 ₸ is recorded under its own analytics. In the turnover for account 6010, you finally see the breakdown: 1,000,000 for wholesale and 300,000 for services. This is the purpose of the directory.
5. Where the type of activity is applied (scenarios)
The directory is not a document, it has no "types of operations". But it is used in operations where the direction of business is important:
- Sale of Goods and Services, Act of Completed Works — breakdown of income on 6010.
- Retail Sales Report — accounting for retail tax.
- Receipt and Inventory — linking expenses to the direction (for separate accounting of cost 7010).
- Regulatory VAT operations and tax declarations — separate accounting by regimes.
6. What is formed
The directory itself does not "post" anything — it is not a document. There are no movements in registers and entries for the directory item. It works as analytics (subaccount) within documents:
- In the entries of sales documents — as a subaccount of account 6010 (and, when configured, 7010).
- In accumulation registers for income/expenses and tax registers — as a measure for separate accounting.
- In data for declarations — as a basis for allocating income to the correct form.
Electronic documents (ESF, SNT) are also not created by the directory — they are formed by sales/receipt documents, where the type of activity is just one of the analytics.
7. Printed forms
The directory item does not have its own printed forms — it is a classifier. What is available:
- Print list of types of activities: in the list form menu "More" → "Output List", then output to a tabular document and print or save (in Excel).
- A separate printed form element does not exist.
8. Common mistakes
"The field 'Name' is not filled" — when trying to save an empty item. Enter a name and try to save again.
"No type of activity selected" (or the line is highlighted when processing the sale) — the document is set to require specifying the direction. Open the document, fill in the column/field "Type of Activity" and process again.
Duplicates in the directory — "Wholesale Trade" and "Wholesale. Trade" as two different items. Income will be spread across both. This can be fixed through "More" → "Search and Remove Duplicates": mark the extra one, replace links with the correct one.
"Item is in use. Deletion is not possible" — the type of activity is already in processed documents. It cannot be deleted. Mark for deletion only after transferring links or simply leave it if it is no longer used.
Empty analytics on 6010 in the turnover — a sure sign that the type of activity was not specified in the sales. You will have to reprocess documents with the filled field.

10. Related documents
The type of activity is entered manually in the directory (nothing is created based on it — it is a classifier). And is used in:
- "Sale of Goods and Services", "Act of Completed Works", "Retail Sales Report" — as income analytics.
- "Receipt of Goods and Services" — for separate accounting of expenses.
- Tax declarations (910.00 — simplified, 913.00 — retail tax, 300.00 — VAT) — for allocation by regimes.
How to find out your release: menu "Help" → "About the program" — there you will find the platform version and configuration release.
This manual is prepared for release 3.0.74.2 "Accounting for Kazakhstan" (version 3.0). In other releases, the location of the field and the path through the menu may differ.
