What happened
An update to the application solution "Retail for Kazakhstan", revision 3.0 has been released — version 3·0·9·3. A detailed description of the new features of the release is available on the information technology support (ITS) website. The key change in this version is related to the 1C:National Catalog of Goods service and working with product codes.
A mechanism for checking the relevance of National Catalog of Goods codes (NTIN) has been added to the configuration. Now the user can identify deactivated NCG codes and replace them with valid ones without leaving the usual workplace in the program.
What's new in version 3·0·9·3
The main innovation is the verification and replacement of deactivated NCG codes. Verification of the relevance of National Catalog of Goods codes (NTIN) has been implemented through the "Verification of deactivated NCG codes" processing.
Access to the processing is organized through the hyperlink "Search and replacement of deactivated NCG cards" on the start page of the data entry assistant. This makes the process clear: the user follows the link, runs the check, and sees which product cards need to be updated.
Such a tool helps keep the item reference books up to date and reduces the risk of using codes that have already ceased to be valid in the catalog.
Who this concerns
The update is primarily important for retail enterprises in Kazakhstan that keep records in the "Retail for Kazakhstan", revision 3.0 configuration and work with the 1C:National Catalog of Goods service.
Special attention to the release should be paid by those who:
- actively fill in product cards through the NCG and use NTIN codes in accounting;
- sell labeled and traceable products, where the correctness of codes is critical;
- regularly update the item reference book and want to eliminate working with outdated cards.
If your database contains items with previously loaded NCG codes, the new processing will allow you to put the reference books in order and make sure that all codes remain valid.

The update is already available to users.
