Checked on release 3.0.74.2 "Accounting for Kazakhstan" (version 3.0).
You have created a new product, but the price in the sales invoice is set to zero. Or the manager complains: "I am processing the receipt, but the retail price is old, although the purchase price has increased." Or you need to raise the price for an entire group of products by 10%, but you don't have time to go through each item manually. In all these cases, you open one document — "Setting Product Prices". This document stores which price for the product is effective from which date and applies it to invoices, receipts, and bills.
1. Purpose
The document records product prices by types of prices (purchase, wholesale, retail, etc.) with a reference to the date. A processed document is the "source of truth" about prices: they are automatically applied to sales, retail receipts, payment invoices, and orders. The document does not create accounting entries — it updates the price register.
2. Where to find
Menu path: section "Warehouse" (or "Sales") → "Prices" → "Setting Product Prices". The "Create" button opens a new document.
If searching through the menu takes too long, insert the navigation link in "File → Go to navigation link" (or Ctrl+click in the address field):
e1cib/list/Document.SettingProductPrices
This will take you directly to the list of all price setting documents.
2a. How to find out your release
Menu "Help" → "About the program". In the opened window, the top line shows the platform version (for example, 8.3.24), below is the configuration release ("Accounting for Kazakhstan", version 3.0, release 3.0.74.2). If your release differs, the layout of the fields may vary slightly, but the logic remains the same.
3. How to fill out
Document header
| Field | Purpose / what happens in case of error |
|---|---|
| Date (mandatory) | From this date and time, the prices are considered effective. The price register is periodic: if you set a date in the past, you will "overwrite" the history, and old invoices may be recalculated. Set the actual date when the prices come into effect. |
| Type of price (mandatory) | The type of price you are setting: "Retail", "Wholesale", "Purchase", etc. This is a key field — a price without a type will "hang in the air" and will not be applied anywhere. In the document, you can specify several types of prices in columns (button "Change form" / "Settings"). |
| Organization | Filled in if you manage multiple companies and the prices are different for them. If you make a mistake, the price will go to the wrong organization. |
| Responsible / Comment | Service fields. They do not affect the price but help understand who and why changed the price. |
Table part
| Field | Purpose / what happens in case of error |
|---|---|
| Product (mandatory) | The product or service to which you are assigning a price. |
| Characteristic | Filled in only if the product is accounted for by characteristics (color, size). Otherwise, leave it blank. |
| Price (mandatory) | Numerical value of the price per unit. An empty/null price = the product is "free" in the invoice. |
| Currency | Default is tenge (₸). Change only for foreign currency price lists. |
| Unit of measurement | The price is tied to a unit (per piece, per package). If you confuse package and piece, you will get a price that is many times higher or lower. |
| % VAT / Price includes VAT | The flag "Price includes VAT" determines whether the price is "gross" or "net". The rate for the RK in 2026 is 16%. If the flag is unchecked, VAT will be charged on top when sold; if checked, VAT is "included". An error in the flag = discrepancy in the amount of the sales document. |
Auto-fill methods (button "Fill")
- "By purchase prices" — pulls the last price from the purchase documents (purchase price).
- "By types of prices" — takes another type of price as the base.
- "Change" — group adjustment: markup/discount in percentage or amount, rounding to the required digit.
4. Example with calculation
You purchased the product "DeLonghi Coffee Machine" at a price of 10,000 ₸ excluding VAT per unit. You need to set the retail price with a markup of 40% and VAT 16% on top.
Calculation:
- Price with markup (excluding VAT): 10,000 × 1.40 = 14,000 ₸.
- VAT 16%: 14,000 × 0.16 = 2,240 ₸.
- Retail price (including VAT): 14,000 + 2,240 = 16,240 ₸.
In the document:
| Product | Type of price | Price | Currency | % VAT | Price includes VAT |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DeLonghi Coffee Machine | Retail | 16,240 | ₸ | 16% | Yes (flag is checked) |
After processing, in the information register "Product Prices" a record will appear:
| Period | Product | Type of price | Price | Currency |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 06.09.2026 | DeLonghi Coffee Machine | Retail | 16,240 | ₸ |
Important: this document does not generate accounting entries (Dr/Cr) — the price is not a movement in accounts but a reference value. Entries will appear later when you sell the product using the "Sales" document, and it will apply this price:
- Dr 1210 Cr 6010 — 14,000 ₸ (revenue from sales excluding VAT);
- Dr 1210 Cr 3130 — 2,240 ₸ (VAT payable);
- Dr 7010 Cr 1330 — 10,000 ₸ (cost of goods written off).
5. Methods of setting prices (what the document can do)
| Method | What it does |
|---|---|
| Manual entry | You enter the price for each item manually. |
| By purchase prices | Fills in purchase prices from the latest receipts. |
| By another type of price | Base — an already set type of price (for example, retail = wholesale +25%). |
| Group change ("Change") | Markup/discount in % or amount on selected rows, rounding. |
| Setting multiple types of prices at once | Through column settings, you set wholesale, retail, and small wholesale in one document. |
6. What is generated upon processing
- Movements in the information register "Product Prices" — one record for each line (product + type of price + date → price). This is the only "movement" of the document.
- No accounting entries — the document is price-related, not a business operation.
- Electronic documents (ESF, VAT invoices) are not issued — they relate to sales and transfers, not to price setting.
7. Print forms
By clicking the "Print" button, the following are available:
- "Setting Product Prices" — a list of items with prices (the document itself);
- "Price Changes" — comparison of old and new prices;
- "Price Register" — price list for clients/showcase;
- "Price Tags" and "Labels" — for printing labels on products (with name, price, barcode).
8. Common errors
"The field 'Type of price' is not filled in" — you did not select the type of price. Specify the type of price in the header (or in the column) and process again.
"The value of the attribute 'Price' in line N is not filled in" — empty price cell. Set the price or delete the extra line.
The old price is applied in the invoice, even though the document was processed. The reason is that the date of the new document is earlier than the sales date, which did not "overwrite" the old one, or the sale is dated earlier than the price setting. Check that the price setting date is not later than the sales document date.
The sales amount does not match the expected. Usually, the flag "Price includes VAT" is confused: the price is entered "including VAT", but the flag is unchecked (or vice versa). Check the flag and the 16% rate.
"A record with such key fields already exists". In one document, for one date, the same product and type of price are specified twice. Leave one line.
