Ukrainian sanctions against 1C: challenges and perspectives for companies and accountants

Advisor to the Minister of Finance, former Deputy Finance Minister Elena Makeeva considers sanctions against Russian companies involving Ukrainian business and to create conditions for development of Ukrainian IT products for accountants.

She wrote about this on his page in Facebook.

According to the financier, most accountants and Ukrainian companies are just 1S and alternatives of this product for the mass market in Ukraine.

“SAP, Oracle – ERP system is not an option, because such products are very expensive and … not every accountant knows how to use them… No SAP, no other similar product in the basic version do not have tax modules, thus the investment becomes more expensive to develop them,” says Makeev.

Former Deputy Minister of Finance believes that the quality of tax audits will deteriorate, and the use of unlicensed or sanctioned software or you need to be ready for the visit “guests”.

As an alternative to prohibited software products should consider the outsourcing of accounting services, says the expert.

“Of course, this service is more expensive than a staff accountant. However, in terms of the sharing economy such a service in terms of demand growth can be significantly reduced by the market,” she says.

Makeeva predicts that the Ukrainian IT-companies will develop a new product for accountants, but not this year.

“A good prospect to change the accounting profession for those who are tired of the constant changes and tax audits… back to the leaves – photographym, Excel. Sure the pay and such accountants will increase, wanting to return to the Sovietization will not be much,” concludes the Minister’s Advisor.
