In 2026, an amount error in 1C should be corrected in the document, line, formula, or imported value where it occurred. Articles 833, 837, 838 and 839 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan regulate the transitional procedure for refunding excess VAT and preserving the terms of investment contracts and agreements, rather than correcting technical errors in accounting software (Article 833 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan; Article 837 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan; Article 838 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan; Article 839 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan).

What amount errors occur in 1C

The phrase “amount error in 1C” may refer to different program messages. Corrections should begin not with manually adjusting totals or accounting entries, but with identifying the exact error text and the name of the document in which it appeared.

In practice, an accountant may encounter three situations:

- “The ‘Amount’ field is not completed in line %1” — check the specified document line, including the amount field;

- “Transaction amount formula: %1” — check the formula, source fields, and the result of populating the transaction;

- “An error occurred while converting the amount string to a number” — check which text value the program is attempting to convert to a number.

Despite the similar wording, different elements need to be checked. Therefore, it is important for the accountant to record the section containing the document, the highlighted line, and the action after which the error appeared: saving, posting, populating from a template, or exchanging data.

If the amount is not completed in a cash register receipt

If the message “The ‘Amount’ field is not completed in line %1” appears, check the amount in the specific receipt line. The designation “%1” in the message may be replaced with the number or representation of the problematic line.

Checking procedure:

- Open the cash register receipt for which the program displayed the error.

- Find the line specified in the message.

- Check that the “Amount” field and the related fields are completed.

- Compare the value with the actual transaction and source documents.

- If the amount is calculated automatically, check the line’s source figures and the settings for the transaction type being used.

- After making the correction, save or post the document again.

Do not enter an arbitrary amount merely to allow the document to be saved. The value must correspond to the actual transaction and supporting documents. If the field should be populated automatically but remains empty or contains an incorrect value, check the contents of the line, its required fields, and the sequence of the user’s actions.

If the message persists after the fields have been completed correctly, record the configuration release and the actions that reproduce the error. For “Accounting for Kazakhstan,” the current release branch in 2026 is 3.0.74.x. Version information will help a specialist reproduce the situation and determine whether it is related to data entry, database settings, or the behavior of the installed release.

How to check the accounting transaction amount formula

If the message “Transaction amount formula: %1” appears, check the amount calculation when populating an accounting transaction from a configured template. The section name and the command used to open the document may differ depending on the configuration, interface, and user permissions.

In this situation, you need to check not only the final number but also the formula that 1C uses to calculate the amount. The sequence of actions may be as follows:

- open the accounting transaction for which the message appeared during population;

- identify the template or standard transaction that was used;

- review which fields are included in the calculation;

- make sure that the source values are completed and have the appropriate data type;

- check the amount formula in the transaction settings;

- after making the correction, populate the transaction from the template again.

If the formula was configured by another employee or support specialist, save its current version or a copy of the settings before changing it. Editing the formula may change the amount calculation and the subsequent automatic population of similar transactions.

The accountant should also compare the calculated value with the underlying transaction documents. Even if 1C no longer displays the message, the amount must be supported by documents and correspond to the economic substance of the entry. The disappearance of the technical error does not in itself confirm that the recorded value is correct.

What to do if a string-to-number conversion error occurs

The message “An error occurred while converting the amount string to a number” appears when the program cannot process the received value as a number. This situation may occur in a form, data processor, or during data exchange if the amount is provided as text or contains characters that prevent conversion.

First, check the source amount string. Processing may be prevented by text instead of a number, spaces or service characters, an unsuitable decimal separator, an empty value, or a format that is not supported by the form or import procedure being used.

Practical procedure:

- Return to the data used to populate the document or form.

- Find the amount value that causes the error after it is processed.

- Remove any accidental text characters and make sure that the field contains a numeric value.

- If the data was imported from an external file or information system, compare the source value with the value imported into 1C.

- Check the number format directly in the form being used.

- After making the correction, populate the fields or import the data again.

If the value appears correct visually, repeatedly reposting the document will not eliminate the cause of the conversion error. Provide the specialist with the exact message text, a screenshot of the form, a description of the actions, an example of the source value, and release information. Until the error is resolved, the amount cannot be considered successfully processed merely because it is displayed on the screen.

Questions and answers

Why does 1C say that the amount is not completed even though the document has a total? — The message may refer not to the document’s overall total but to a specific line or field. Check the line specified by the program and its related fields.

Can any non-zero value be entered to post the receipt? — No. The amount must correspond to the actual transaction and supporting documents. An arbitrary value may remove the program message but will result in incorrect accounting data.

Where can I find the transaction with an incorrect amount formula? — Open the document for which the message appeared during population, then check the template or standard transaction used, the formula, and the source calculation fields. The path to the document depends on the configuration and interface settings.

What should be provided to a 1C specialist if the error cannot be corrected independently? — Provide the exact message text, the document name, the problematic line, the sequence of actions, a screenshot, an example of the source value, and information about the installed configuration release.

Article 833 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan preserves the previous procedure and time limits for reviewing tax applications and claims for refunds of excess VAT submitted before January 1, 2026 (Article 833 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan). Articles 837 and 838 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan provide for the preservation of the established terms of certain investment contracts and agreements concluded before January 1, 2026 (Article 837 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan; Article 838 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan). Article 839 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan preserves the VAT exemption for imports of raw materials and supplies in the case provided for therein until the investment contract expires (Article 839 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan). These provisions do not establish the procedure for completing fields, configuring transaction formulas, or converting numeric values in 1C.
