In 2026, accounting in 1C should be maintained on the basis of source documents and the organization’s accounting policy, after first configuring the parameters of the specific infobase. For tax accounting of fixed assets, depreciation rates are established in the tax register: for each asset in Group I and for Groups II, III and IV as a whole, without exceeding the established maximum rates (Article 280 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan). These parameters should be reflected in the settings of the configuration used and applied consistently when maintaining records.

How to Organize Accounting in 1C

1C helps collect information about business transactions, prepare documents, and generate accounting data. However, the program does not determine the accounting rules on its own: the result depends on the selected configuration, accounting policy, organization settings, and the accuracy of the documents entered.

Before starting work, the accountant should check:

- which organization and infobase have been selected;

- whether the organization’s details have been completed;

- whether the accounting policy corresponds to the actual activities;

- whether currencies, departments, warehouses, and lines of business have been configured;

- whether user permissions have been defined;

- whether opening balances have been entered correctly;

- whether data verification before period-end closing has been provided for.

Adding an infobase to the startup list is merely a technical step for accessing 1C. After connecting the infobase, it is necessary to make sure that the user has opened the correct organization and the correct period. This is especially important if the accountant works with several infobases or maintains records for several legal entities.

It is advisable to test any setting using a test case first. After posting a document, the generated result should be reviewed to ensure that the transaction has been recorded in the correct period and relates to the correct organization. Automation speeds up work but does not replace professional review by an accountant.

Payroll and Fixed Asset Accounting in 1C

Payroll accounting in 1C begins not with accruals but with the correct completion of information about the organization and its employees. Before performing calculations, it is necessary to check personnel data, remuneration terms, departments, and other parameters that affect how the transaction is recorded. The specific set of documents and commands depends on the configuration used and its version.

A practical workflow may look as follows:

- Check the employee’s data and the grounds for the accrual.
- Enter the documents for the relevant period.
- Perform the calculation using the program.
- Check the result for each employee.
- Reconcile accruals, deductions, and payments with the source documents.
- Complete period processing only after verification.
When accounting for fixed assets in 1C, the transaction date, accounting item, its characteristics, and documentary basis are particularly important. The accountant needs to record the receipt, recognition, subsequent use, and disposal of the asset in sequence. Parameters must not be selected merely to obtain the desired result in a report: they must correspond to the actual transaction and the organization’s accounting policy.

After entering fixed asset data, it is useful to reconcile the asset records with the source documents and check for duplicates. If the procedure for recording a transaction is unclear, it should be determined before the documents are posted, rather than correcting a chain of entries after the period has been closed.

Online Accounting, Product Marking, and Foreign Currency Transactions

The query “1C online accounting” usually refers to working with an infobase through a remote service or web access. This does not change the accounting principles for the accountant, but access segregation, reliable access, and control over who modifies documents become more important. The terms for data storage, backup, and infobase recovery should be clarified with the provider of the solution used.

Accounting for product marking in 1C requires appropriate program functionality and correct data exchange with the information systems used. Before starting work, it is necessary to determine which goods are subject to marking, which transactions the configuration must support, and which details must be completed. Specific commands, documents, and workflows must not be transferred from instructions for another version of the program without verification.

Advance payments for foreign currency transactions require particular attention. If advances are not accounted for properly or the program processes exchange differences incorrectly, it is necessary to:

- check the foreign currency transaction accounting settings;

- make sure that advance payments are correctly recorded in the documents;

- check the parameters related to the processing of exchange differences;

- compare the program’s result with the economic substance of the transaction.

Simply reposting the document may not be sufficient if the cause lies in the settings. Before correcting the production infobase, it is advisable to determine which documents and subsequent transactions will be affected by the change.

Lease Accounting in 1C in Kazakhstan: Procedure

Lease accounting in 1C should begin with an analysis of the agreement and source documents. The accountant must determine the substance of the transaction, the parties, the asset, the payment schedule, and the rules established in the accounting policy. Only then can a method of recording it in the program be selected.

Without confirmed information about the configuration and the terms of the agreement, it is impossible to specify a universal set of 1C documents. Transaction names and available features vary, and an incorrectly selected scheme may affect the subsequent accounting of payments and the asset.

A safe workflow:

- Review the agreement and its appendices.
- Check the organization’s accounting policy.
- Determine which facts of economic activity must be recorded.
- Find the relevant documents in the configuration used.
- Process a test case and check the result.
- Reconcile the data with the payment schedule and source documents.
If the standard functionality is insufficient, the required result must be described before modifying the infobase. Installing any extension also requires caution. An extension file is usually added through the administration section provided in the configuration, after which the session is restarted and the connection is checked. The names of sections and commands depend on the configuration and program version. Such actions may affect the security and stability of the infobase, so only trusted files should be used, the approved procedure should be followed, a backup should be created in advance, and the result should be tested in a test infobase.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can accounting in 1C be started immediately after installing the program? — First, an infobase must be created or connected, the organization’s data must be completed, the accounting policy must be configured, and user permissions must be checked. Opening balances and current documents can then be entered.

Is one accounting procedure suitable for all versions of 1C? — No. The set of documents, section names, and available features depend on the configuration, version, and installed extensions, so the instructions must be checked against the specific infobase.

Why might a foreign currency advance be recorded incorrectly? — This may be caused by the foreign currency transaction accounting parameters or incorrect document preparation. The advance, exchange difference settings, and the posting results of related transactions must be checked.

Can payroll accounting in 1C be fully automated? — The program can perform calculations based on the data entered, but the accountant must check the personnel information, grounds for accruals, and final results.

What should be checked before accounting for a lease in 1C? — The agreement, source documents, payment schedule, accounting policy, capabilities of the specific configuration, and the result of a test recording of the transaction.
