Last Updated: November 18, 2019
Welcome to the Deltek for Professional Services 1.1.29 Release Notes, which describe the new features and enhancements introduced in this release.
Contents of Release Notes
These release notes address all of the modules associated with Deltek for Professional Services 1.1, some of which your firm may not use. Skip the sections that do not apply to your implementation of Deltek Vantagepoint.
The data validation that DPS performs when you use the Data Import utility in the desktop application to import employee expense report records has been enhanced as follows:
If an import record includes a value in one or more of the ten tax code fields (TaxCodeSequence1...TaxCodeSequence10), each of those tax codes must be a valid tax code for the expense report's company. In addition, the import process verifies that the Employee Expenses check box has been selected for each tax code on the Tax Codes settings form (Settings » Accounting » Taxes) to indicate that it can be used for employee expense reports.
If one of the tax amount fields (TaxAmountSequence1...TaxAmountSequence10) in an import record contains 0.00, the import process assumes that 0.00 is the tax amount you want for that tax, just as it does with any non-zero tax amount. Previously, the import process calculated a tax amount for the tax code when the import record contained 0.00 in the tax amount field, the same way that it does when the import record does not specify any tax amount for a tax code.
Updated PHP Version
The Touch Server for this version of the Deltek for Professional Services mobile application has been upgraded to support PHP 7.3.11.
Updated Mobile Application Icon in the App Store
The color of the Deltek for Professional Services mobile application icon that displays in the app store has been updated to use light green. In the previous release, the icon used light blue, which was similar to that of the other Deltek mobile applications.
Two Separate URLs to Download the Mobile Application from the App Store and Populate the Server URL Field
Tapping the link in the email message, which your administrator sends you, now directs you to a page that displays two separate links. Tapping the first link directs you to the mobile application in the app store, allowing you to download it into your device. Tapping the second link automatically populates the Server URL field in the downloaded application. In the previous release, the email message would contain a link that either directed you to the app store (if the mobile application was not yet installed) or automatically populated the Server URL field (if the mobile application was already installed).
Defect 1209919: If you were part of a role with limited access to the Firms hub and you attempted to edit a firm record, you received an error message: "An error has occurred." However, you could close the error message and modify the firm record.
Defect 1211331: When you first set up a favorite report that included "project manager is me," it ran correctly. After you logged out and back in to DPS, the report returned no data.
Defect 1203095: When you dismissed an activity reminder, it took longer than it should have to be dismissed.
Defect 1186742: When you ran the initialization process to copy QuickBook records to Vantagepoint, it copied account, tax, customer, vendor, and employee records from QuickBooks to Vantagepoint. However, only the first 100 records of each type of record were copied to Vantagepoint.
