  3. Make sure that your configuration is supported, to do this, go to the menu Configuration -> Support -> Support setting. In the window that opens, at the top left, there should be a corresponding inscription “ Configuration is under support».


    If you do not have this inscription, it means that your configuration may differ from the supplier's configuration (it was opened for revision/change of the typical configuration). The process for updating a modified configuration is different from the process described in this article. I advise you to contact experienced programmers to update a non-standard configuration.
  4. To start the update process, navigate through the menu Configuration -> Support -> Update configuration.

  8. A window will open where you can read the description of the update. Pay attention to the version of the platform, it must be at least the one you have installed. We press the button Continue update.

  9. A window will open where you can check the version of the current configuration and the version of the configuration that will be after the update. If everything is correct, press the button OK.

Preparing to update the 1C configuration

Downloading the 1C update distribution kit

To update the 1C 8.3 configuration, we need an update distribution kit, which can be obtained:

  • on the user support site https://users.v8.1c.ru;
  • on the ITS disk;
  • through a 1C partner in your city.

Before downloading the required distribution kit for updating 1C 8.3, we look at which release of the 1C 8.3 program we currently have installed. Main menu - Help - About :

We go to the official user support website and check the table - to which release you can update our configuration of the 1C 8.3 program:

Very important! Follow this 1C 8.3 update table and install in stages. If you have not updated for a long time, there is a great temptation to immediately install the current release using the full configuration distribution kit - *.cf file. But then there is a high probability that you will miss a release where the developers replaced or removed some objects, and you may lose some data.

For example, if we had release 3.0.43.100 installed, we would first install 3.0.43.148 and then the latest update release, 3.0.43.162.

Attention!!! Don't forget to make backups! After all, if the configuration update fails, you can always restore our database.

Launch the infobase in the configurator:

Main menu - Administration - Upload infobase:

In the last article, we examined the procedure for updating the version of the 1C Enterprise 8.3 platform (Updating the 1C 8.3 platform). Now we will present to your attention two options for updating the 1C 8.3 configuration on our own, without involving third-party specialists, and we will do this using the example of a typical configuration Enterprise Accounting 3.0.

Note that the procedure is indicated for a typical configuration that does not contain system modifications, otherwise we recommend that you contact competent specialists for support to avoid errors.

The first option is updating through the configurator.

The Download updates link opens a list of all available 1C updates. To download a new version of the configuration, you will need to expand the menu Typical configurations of 1C for Russia and find the line with the desired configuration. In the list of updates of the selected configuration, open the version for download and download the Update Distribution Kit.

After the distribution kit is downloaded, we find the updsetup.exe archive on our computer and unpack it into a separate folder. Among the files received after unpacking will be setup.exe, and it must be launched. This opens the configuration product installer. Click Next, confirming the need to install the data, then select (or leave the default) the template directory and click Next again. After the program displays a message about the successful installation of the configuration, click Finish.

The next step is to launch the database in the configurator mode. In the Configuration section, open the configuration.

In the case when suitable versions are found, their list will be displayed, the one that is the newest of all presented will be highlighted in bold. Select the one you want and click Done.

After installing the updates, the system will offer to update the database configuration, confirm the action.

Option two - automatic update of the 1C 8.3 configuration in the Enterprise mode.

In the program Enterprise Accounting 3.0. the necessary functionality is located in the Administration section → Internet support and services → Updating the application version. Here you can also configure the automatic check for updates. To start working with automatic installation of 1C configuration updates, click the Program Update link. The window that opens displays Information about the available update: version number, size, and a description of the changes.

If you already have a file to update, click the Install configuration update from file link.
