1C:Enterprise 8
Functionality of the
business applications
Introduction
This section describes 1C:Enterprise 8 business applications'
functionality (or 'applied solutions' in 1C:Enterprise platform terms)
produced by 1C Company in 1C:Enterprise 8 software system.
The unique composition of business functionality, applied
solutions development and administration means, software integration
and data exchange tools provided by 1C:Enterprise platform offers
outstanding possibilities for rapid application development (RAD) and
drastically lowers development and maintenance costs. This caused a
whole industry for creation of business applications based on the
platform to appear across former USSR territory.
For general information on 1C:Enterprise 8 software system see
'1CEnterprise
- the system of programs' section.
A detailed description of 1C:Enterprise 8 platform and its
features is given in '1CEnterprise
8 - the platform' section.
Areas of application
Business applications created by 1C Company and its partners
on the base of 1C:Enterprise platform cover many business areas. In

A distinguishing feature of boxed business applications made
by 1C is their functional compositions being thoroughly worked out.
Standard solutions contain only those functions which are really
required for a significant part of enterprises. This allows making them
rather compact and easy-to-use, providing direct correspondence between
legal system and business specific and the solutions, also to maintain
and develop them further. Besides, this makes possible for them to be
used by the Company's partners when developing their own business
applications.
These four applied solutions are described in details in the
following sections.
Vertical applied solutions are created by
1C Company's partners for automation of some branches or fields of
activities of various enterprises.
Presence of the single unified platform and common development
methodology allows developing such solutions using boxed solutions from
1C as a basis, adding only required components aimed to a particular
branch or an enterprise specificity. This provides quick development
and introduction of business applications due to using proven
functionality implemented in the boxed applied solutions; this also
reduces costs of vertical solutions the costs are significantly lower
in comparison to development of a business application from scratch.
