What happened
An update has been released for the configuration “Management of Trade Enterprise for Kazakhstan”, edition 2.0 — version 2·0·26·2. This is not a full transition to a new edition, but a supplementary release within the existing line: it provides updated forms and external processes necessary for compliance with Kazakhstan regulations.
Essentially, such updates are designed to keep the application solution current between major releases. They allow for the timely adjustment of printed and electronic forms, as well as auxiliary processes, to meet current requirements without waiting for the next major version of the configuration.
Who it concerns
The update is primarily important for organizations in Kazakhstan that account for trade activities in the configuration “Management of Trade Enterprise for Kazakhstan” edition 2.0. This includes wholesale and retail companies, distributors, and enterprises with warehouse and inventory accounting.
In practice, several roles within the company should monitor the release of updates:
- Chief Accountant and Accounting Department — because they work with regulated forms and are interested in their accuracy. - IT Specialists and 1C Administrators — they will need to perform the update and verify it. - Manager — as the person responsible for compliance with requirements and the continuity of accounting processes.
If the information base is supported by a 1C partner or service organization, the update is usually installed as part of the support contract.
What to do
To correctly transition to the update, follow the standard procedure for updating the typical configuration.
If the base is non-standard (with custom modifications), it is better to entrust the update to a specialist: the changed standard forms and processes may require transferring your modifications.
Timelines and installation procedure
There are usually no strict calendar restrictions for the update — it is installed as the organization is ready. However, it is wise not to delay updates that concern regulated forms: the sooner the forms are brought up to date, the lower the risk of discrepancies when preparing and exporting documents.
The optimal approach is to install the update at the nearest convenient technological window, after testing it on a copy of the database. Exact platform requirements and installation procedures are always specified in the accompanying description of the release, so it is advisable to review the official release note before updating.
How to avoid missing updates
To receive such updates in a timely manner:
- Maintain an active support subscription (ITS) — without it, access to updates is limited. - Set up regular checks for updates directly from the program, if your base allows it. - Keep a log of installed releases to understand which version you are on and what the next update is.
Frequently asked questions
How does the update differ from a full configuration update? — The update is released within the already active version and typically provides updated forms and processes, rather than changing the edition entirely. It is installed using the same standard update mechanism.

Is it necessary to make a backup before updating? — Yes, a backup is mandatory before any update. This allows you to return to a working state of the database if issues arise during the process.
