How to understand the knowledge of typical configurations? At what level, programming, or use?

Question

1C

That is, here I am looking at vacancies, you need to know BU, UT, SCP, etc., etc. So I have to be, like, an accountant to go where knowledge of the ECU configuration is required? This is not even studied for half a year, but there are more than one of these requirements as a rule. I don’t understand in what range is meant, knowledge of typical configurations? And how should it be taught? For example, if a vacancy requires understanding, or initial knowledge of BU, I have to study a 500-page book and then I can say I am a 1C BU programmer or what?
I didn’t see anyone write about knowledge of applied elements, for some reason it’s important to know typical configurations in the first place. And what typical configurations do you need to know to start, are there the simplest ones with which you can start, or do you need to look at the vacancies, read about them and get a job?

Answer 1

I will answer from the end)
First of all, familiarize yourself with the configuration of UT (Trade Management). It is the most in demand and largely overlaps with other configurations.
What exactly is meant by "knowledge" is an ambiguous question, it depends on the vacancy.
For example, for a consultant, I ask for a chart of accounts (basic, without sub-accounts and complex operations), the procedure for conducting documents (what documents reflect the purchase of goods), respectively, this is the general accounting methodology embedded in the program. If you have worked with the program, it is not difficult to answer the questions, since these are actually daily operations. Accountants and, moreover, some storekeepers, unfortunately, do not always understand this logic.
For a programmer, it is important to understand the configuration structure, metadata, organization of data storage in objects (here, in fact, the specific configuration is not so important, they are all similar) - for example, how directories, information registers and accumulation registers differ. By the way, believe me, even an experienced developer may not answer such a question right away)
For study - 1C has good and relatively inexpensive courses. I admit that now, as part of the transition to distance learning, they can be found for free on well-known resources.
