Business entities require strict reporting forms if payments for goods and services are made without the use of cash registers.
Today, it is allowed to have forms made using automated technology, equivalent to a cash register.
BSO must comply as closely as possible with the norms of the legislation of the Russian Federation.
Often, the printing house that produces BSO and the user of the documentation are different business entities.
The transfer of forms from one company to another is accompanied by the conclusion of an appropriate agreement and a separate document - the acceptance certificate.
A similar document is also required:
- when issuing BSO to officials responsible for their storage;
- when moving forms from one department to another;
- when changing the financially responsible employee.

- conclusion of an agreement on full financial liability between the specialist and the enterprise;
- the presence of a valid order on the admission of this employee to the group of financially responsible persons.
Only after all standards have been met, as well as the storage conditions for the BSO, is a report drawn up.
The circumstances of the transfer of forms are confirmed by independent employees. For these purposes, a commission is formed that directly takes part in the recalculation of transferred documents and verification of their integrity.
Group members are granted the rights:
- personal presence upon receipt of documentation by the financially responsible person;
- counting BSO instances
- reconciliation of serial numbers with the invoice.

- name of the enterprise carrying out the transfer;
- surname, initials and position of the transferring and receiving employee;
- name, quantity, price, numbers, date of acceptance of the BSO;

- reflection of the BSO price;
- certification of the indicated information by members of the commission;
- acceptance of BSO for safekeeping.
The form can be filled out either manually or using a computer, but in any case, “live” signatures of employees must be affixed.
Having completed the act and received the BSO, the responsible employee takes them and puts them in a safe, which is recommended to be sealed.

BSO accounting involves documenting each case of movement of forms. Acts on the transfer of strict reporting forms are drawn up in the following cases:
- receiving forms printed at the printing house (the sample act is signed by a representative of the printing company, an accountant of the customer company and a storekeeper or other employee responsible for storage);
- the act of acceptance and transfer of strict reporting forms is formed when issuing documents to the officials of the enterprise responsible for issuing the forms (the form of the act is arbitrary);
- when moving documentation from one department to another with a change in the financially responsible person accepting it for storage.
The BSO acceptance certificate, a sample of its preparation, must contain the required details:

Causes
The write-off of BSO carried out by an economic entity is regulated by generally binding norms of the current legislation. This circumstance is caused by the need for strict accounting of settlement documents classified as BSO.
So, for example, in order to deregister these documents, the management of an enterprise or an individual entrepreneur needs compelling reasons.
Write-off of payment document forms that are subject to strict accounting by an economic entity can be carried out for the following main reasons:
- completion of the regulated storage period officially established for used forms and settlement documents that were damaged when filled out - rules and sample for filling out the BSO;
- other grounds, the occurrence and identification of which determine the need to write off documentary forms from the register (loss, damage, theft).
Used BSO - their counterfoils or copies of documents issued to clients - are subject to storage by the business entity for a five-year period, counted from the end of the year in which the corresponding form was filled out.
For example, if a payment document subject to strict accounting was issued by the seller on January 5, 2015, its liquidation is allowed only after December 31, 2021.
The liquidation procedure in this case implies a special audit of the BSO, a month after which the written-off forms can be destroyed - the destruction process.
Payment document forms that are damaged during completion are written off and liquidated in the same way.
Other grounds (loss, damage, theft) refer to emergency incidents.
The commission, which is created by the management of the business entity and conducts such an audit, must take the following actions:
- establish and confirm the fact of loss of forms;
- determine the probable cause of the detected shortage - the absence of forms listed according to accounting data;
- assess the degree of guilt of the entity responsible for the safety and integrity of the audited documentary forms at the enterprise;
- record the results of the audit in the necessary documentation (inventory list, matching sheet, inventory report).
Documentary grounds
You can write off strict reporting forms for one reason or another from a business entity on the basis of certain documentation that must be completed.
Which document should you use to write off strict reporting forms:
- Documentation related to the mandatory audit of the BSO, based on the results of which the forms are written off: management order to conduct the audit, which indicates the reasons for the audit, the timing of its implementation, as well as the composition of the inventory commission;
- inventory list, which contains actual information about the availability of strict reporting forms, compared with accounting data;
- a comparison (reconciliation) statement drawn up when discrepancies are identified between actual information and accounting data (surpluses, shortages);
- an audit act, the execution of which summarizes the results of the audit.
- administrative act of the management of an economic entity on the appointment and powers of a special write-off commission (write-off order);

The act is drawn up after the employer has provided the responsible person with the conditions necessary for the safety of the forms. The fact that an employee has accepted BSO must be confirmed by independent persons. For this purpose, a commission is created that participates in counting the transferred documents and assessing their integrity (clause 15 of the Regulations approved by Resolution No. 359 of 05/06/2008).
The commission is vested with the rights to:

After recording the accounting records and displaying the costs of producing printed materials, all data regarding numbered business papers will be entered into the book. First of all, a record is made of the receipt of printed products in accordance with the existing act, and subsequently any movements for each type are recorded separately in compliance with chronology.

Upon receipt of the order and accompanying documents from the printing house, a commission is created that recalculates the quantity of printed products, verifies the availability of series and numbers for each type separately, and only after such a procedure and their reflection in accounting is they transferred for storage to the financially responsible person assigned by a separate order. In this case, an act of transfer of strict reporting forms is drawn up. After posting the documents in the prescribed manner, this employee must note any of their movements in the BSO accounting book. The issuance of forms for settlements with clients is mandatory.
