Why do you need ITS? What is the RDI service?

What does the "Information Technology Support" ("ITS") subscription provide and why is it necessary:

• Access to the "Software Update" online service and full access to the "ITS" online database — this is a legal update of the BAS database;
• Access to the "Consultation Line" online service — legal support of the BAS database by a company that provides BAS database support;
• Access to the "RDI SERVICE" online service;
• Access to the "FREDO Report" online service for legal entities;
• Access to the "FREDO DocMen" online service;
• Access to the "Auditor Consultations" online service (12 consultations);
• The "LECTURE HALL" service (in-person attendance, ONLINE ACCESS, video recordings viewing). Periodically, the "Union of Business Automation Specialists" conducts online lectures on various topics related to accounting and management accounting, as well as working with BAS databases. If you have an ITS subscription, participation in such lectures is free of charge.

ITS and RDI Service: How to Automate Accountant Routine and Keep a Pulse on Changes?

A modern accountant is not just an accounting specialist, but an analyst working in a constantly changing legislative environment. To avoid drowning in routine and prevent errors, the ITS ecosystem (Information and Technology Support) was created. Today, we will explore how one of its key elements — the RDI service — turns your accounting system into an intelligent assistant.

What is the RDI Service and Why is it Needed?

RDI (Remote Data Interface) is a service for automatic downloading of regulatory and reference information. Instead of searching for exchange rates on the NBU website or checking new inflation indices in newspapers, you receive them directly into your software.

Step 1: Connecting Internet Support.

First of all, the program must "recognize" you as a licensed user with an active ITS agreement. This is done in the administration section.

Step 2: Configuring Automatic Download.

The RDI service allows you to flexibly choose exactly which data should be updated automatically. You can set up a scheduled task so that the program does this on a schedule (for example, every night).

In addition to numerical indicators, RDI updates important classifiers that change frequently:

More Than Just Data: Calendar and News.

One of the most useful tools for work planning is the Accountant's Calendar. It integrates directly into your home page and reminds you of deadlines.

Thanks to the ITS News section, you will always be aware of:

• New releases of your software.

• Changes in legislation.

• New methodological explanations on the portal.

You can even customize the number and topics of news you want to receive:

Result: Automation in Action

After setup, you will notice the magic in daily small tasks. For example, a button will appear in the currency directory that instantly pulls in official NBU exchange rates.

How to Start Using It?

If you encounter difficulties with the setup or see a message about the absence of services in your account — contact your service partner.

Conclusion: ITS is not just a "permission to update." It is access to automation that takes over routine work, minimizes the risk of fines, and allows the accountant to focus on what matters most.
