1C:Microenterprise 8 for Estonia
Since May 2016, a free software product — “1C:Mikroettevõte 8 (1C:Microenterprise 8 for Estonia)” — has been available, designed for automating organizations with the status of “Microenterprise” (Mikroettevõtja) engaged in any type of commercial activity: wholesale trade, services, manufacturing, etc. Accounting complies with the current legislation of the Republic of Estonia.
For user convenience, the software is delivered electronically, meaning it can be downloaded and installed quickly without waiting for a boxed version.
1C:Mikroettevõte 8 (1C:Microenterprise 8 for Estonia) can only be used in single-user mode; additional workstations are not supported. The license allows accounting for one organization on a single workstation, registered for the program. To account for multiple organizations, separate applications must be submitted for each or another version of 1C:Accounting 8 must be purchased (see Comparison).
The solution contains the necessary functionality for accounting, including preparation of mandatory (regulated) reports, for organizations engaged in any commercial activity: wholesale and retail trade, services, etc. It is intended for automating the accounting of small enterprises where one accountant works with the program and no customization of the standard configuration is required. See details in the Description of Features and Limitations.
