Welcome to the Deltek Costpoint 7.1.11 Release Notes, which describe the new features and enhancements introduced in this release.


Important Notes


These release notes address all of the modules associated with Deltek Costpoint 7.1.11, some of which your firm may not use. Skip the sections that do not apply to your implementation of Deltek Costpoint.

Release notes are available from the landing page and the Costpoint Information Center. We will make a PDF available for a while, as we transition to the new format.

We want the release notes to be as easy to use as possible. To this end, we will continue to analyze and improve upon the format. If you have feedback, please email DeltekDocumentationFeedback@deltek.com.

 

Installation Notes

 

The MR installer reads through all Costpoint systems selected. If a Time & Expense segment is found, it searches for the presence of a Time & Expense license for that Costpoint system. It provides a listing of all such systems found, prompting you to review the list and remove (using DBWizard, Remove License) any TE license from the Costpoint system where the connected TE segment is for a stand-alone, external connection that should not have had a Time & Expense license applied to it.

 

Any external Time & Expense segments found where a Time & Expense license is not present, or where the Time & Expense segment is for a Time & Expense 901 system, the MR Time & Expense patches, SPs, or Data Dictionary files will not be applied.

 

If all systems listed are properly licensed for Time & Expense and you do want the MR applied to them, please proceed. If you are unsure, please contact Deltek Technical Support.

Reporting Qualified Sick Leave Wages

In addition to including qualified sick leave wages in the amount of wages paid to the employee reported in Boxes 1, 3 (up to the social security wage base), and 5 of Form W-2, employers must report to the employee the following type and amount of the wages that were paid, with each amount separately reported either in Box 14 of Form W-2 or on a separate statement:

If a separate statement is provided and the employee receives a paper Form W-2, then the statement must be included with the Form W-2 provided to the employee, and if the employee receives an electronic Form W-2, then the statement shall be provided in the same manner and at the same time as the Form W-2.

Reporting Qualified Family Leave Wages

In addition to including qualified family leave wages in the amount of wages paid to the employee reported in Boxes 1, 3 (up to the social security wage base), and 5 of Form W-, employers must separately report to the employee the following type and amount of the wages that were paid in either in Box 14 of Form W-2 or on a separate statement:

If a separate statement is provided and the employee receives a paper Form W-2, then the statement must be included with the Form W-2 sent to the employee, and if the employee receives an electronic Form W-2, then the statement shall be provided in the same manner and at the same time as the Form W-2.

Model Language for Employee Instructions

As part of the Instructions for Employee, under the instructions for Box 14, for the Forms W-2, or in a separate statement sent to the employee, the employer may provide additional information about qualified sick leave wages and qualified family leave wages and explain that these wages may limit the amount of the qualified sick leave equivalent or qualified family leave equivalent credits to which the employee may be entitled with 9 respect to any self-employment income. The following model language (modified as necessary) may be used:

“Included in Box 14, if applicable, are amounts paid to you as qualified sick leave wages or qualified family leave wages under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act. Specifically, up to three types of paid qualified sick leave wages or qualified family leave wages are reported in Box 14:

If you have self-employment income in addition to wages paid by your employer, and you intend to claim any qualified sick leave or qualified family leave equivalent credits, you must report the qualified sick leave or qualified family leave wages on Form 7202, Credits for Sick Leave and Family Leave for Certain Self-Employed Individuals, included with your income tax return and reduce (but not below zero) any qualified sick leave or qualified family leave equivalent credits by the amount of these qualified leave wages. If you have self employment income, you should refer to the instructions for your individual income tax return for more information.”

Manage Employee Leave (LDMELV)

When you report the COVID-19 sick leave wages in Box 14 of Form W-2, the sick leave wages must be reported based on the daily limit that was applied:

To allow you to specify which daily limit was utilized, the Manage Employee Leave screen provides the following new drop-down list in the Paid Family Leave subtask. This will enable the Create W-2 Table application to appropriately allocate wages to the correct category.

State


2020 New Jersey Tax Withholding

New legislation enacted September 29, 2020, made several changes to the New Jersey Gross Income Tax Act as part of New Jersey’s Fiscal Year 2021 budget. The new law increases the Gross Income Tax rate for income between $1 million and $5 million and provides a new withholding rate for the remainder of 2020.

Effective January 1, 2020, the tax rate on that income bracket increases from 8.97% to 10.75%, regardless of filing status.

Effective immediately, employers must withhold Income Tax at the rate of 21.3% from salaries, wages, and other remuneration in excess of $1 million, but not in excess of $5 million, during the taxable year. This higher withholding rate allows taxpayers affected by the rate increase to “catch up” on their withholdings for the year since the new tax rate is retroactive to January 1, 2020.

The Division of Taxation will not impose interest or penalties for insufficient payment of estimated tax and/or withholdings that may be due before September 29, 2020, if the underpayment is a result of the new tax rate.

The following rates published by New Jersey represented withholdings for a full tax year and do not reflect the “catch up” rate of 21.3%.

 

RATE A

RATE B

RATE C

RATE D

RATE E

In order to comply with the mandated “catch-up” withholding, this Costpoint release updates New Jersey tax tables with the 21.3% “catch-up” tax rate for annualized taxable wages between 1,000,000 and 5,000,000 from September 29, 2020 through December 31, 2020. New tax tables with an effective date of January 1, 2021 will be also implemented to revert back to the 11.8% tax rate for those with annualized taxable wages greater than 1,000,000.


2021 SUTA Wage Base Updates

This Costpoint release adds tax table records effective 01/01/2021 for states where the unemployment-taxable wage base has been updated for tax year 2021.

Note: These updates require PATCH3802 and PATCH3804.

 

Missouri

The SUTA limit for 2021 is $11,000.

 

Montana

The SUTA limit for 2021 is $35,300.

 

Oklahoma

The SUTA limit for 2021 is $24,000.

 

Wyoming

The SUTA limit for 2021 is $27,300.

Installation

MR Installer Update

The 7.1.11 MR Installer is updated to replace the CalcBills folder name from mixed case letters (C:\Deltek\Costpoint\71\applications\enterprise\APP-INF\classes\com\deltek\enterprise\application\bl\commonbl\CalcBills) to all lowercase letters (C:\Deltek\Costpoint\71\applications\enterprise\APP-INF\classes\com\deltek\enterprise\application\bl\commonbl\calcbills).

 

Before this update, if your CalcBills folder name had mixed case letters, you received the following error:

 

The MasterServlet failed with the following exception:

Software Issues Resolved


Accounting


Accounts Payable >> Create PO Vouchers from POs/Receipts


Defect 1349344: When you created a purchase order (PO) voucher from a PO/Receipt with a 0 PO Total Amount, Costpoint interchanged the accounts payable (AP) account assigned to the PO/Receipt that has a PO Total Amount of 0 with the AP account assigned to the succeeding PO/Receipt that has a PO Total Amount that is not 0.


Accounts Payable >> Post Vouchers


Defect 1372684: If you use Costpoint with an Oracle database, Costpoint abruptly stopped functioning when you posted vouchers with vendor labor lines.


General Ledger >> Create Purchase Order Accruals


Defect 1361591: You encountered an error when you created purchase order accruals. This happened when the Use PO/Voucher Organizations check box was selected on the Configure Purchase Order Accruals screen. As a workaround, clear the Use PO/Voucher Organizations check box before creating purchase order accruals.


General Ledger >> Post Journal Entries


Defect 1372689: If you use Costpoint with an Oracle database, Costpoint abruptly stopped functioning when you posted journal entries with employee or vendor labor lines.


Multicurrency >> Update Open Accounts Payable Exchange Rates


Defect 1368542: The Update Open Accounts Payable Exchange Rates screen was updated to disable parallel execution so the update process will run in a serial queue even if you run it using a parallel queue.


Multicurrency >> Update Open Accounts Receivable Exchange Rates


Defect 1368488: The Update Open Accounts Receivable Exchange Rates screen was updated to disable parallel execution so the process will run in a serial queue even if you run it using a parallel queue.

Defect 1356937: On the Modifications tab, the fee calculations at the roll-up level were different from the calculations on the individual modifications.


Defect 1362667: On the Modifications tab, when you added a modification at the lower level of a project and then expanded all project levels on the tab's table window, the second level of the project was missing on the rollup or project tree. This issue occurred on projects with four or more levels.


Contracts >> Manage Subcontracts


Defect 1345723: On the Modifications tab, when you entered values in the Fee % and Cost fields, Costpoint did not automatically populate the Value and Fee fields. When you saved the record, the values that were calculated and displayed for Value and Fee were incorrect. This issue occurred in the Value Modifications and Funding Modifications group boxes.


Opportunities >> Manage Opportunities


Defect 1345599: On the Opportunity Teammates/Competitors subtask, when you selected Subcontractor and then used the ID lookup to search for a vendor or prospective vendor, the system did not display the vendor name for the prospective vendor ID in the lookup.


Resources >> Manage Contract Management Vendor Info


Defect 1354324: A system error occurred when cloning an approved prospective vendor with edits made on the Addresses and Contacts subtasks of Manage Vendors. This defect affects you if you use an Oracle database. As a workaround, you can create a new record instead of cloning an existing one.


Framework


External Tools >> CONFIG


Defect 1370182: When using the Costpoint Config Utility, the Test button for each System (DB segments and Link Users) should have validated the password to make sure it did not contain unsupported characters before it tested the connection. As a workaround, you can manually change the passwords in the toolconnections.properties file for each segment and save the file. Then, open the Config utility, test the system, and click Save. This should encrypt the file again.


External Tools >> SecurityProvider


Defect 1355424: Active Directory groups were not retrieved correctly when Manage Groups in Active Directory was turned on for the account.


Framework


Defect 1340863: When you added an extensibility field as one of your query conditions in an application, the defined sort order on the Sort tab was no longer applied.


Defect 1346240: When you viewed timesheets in Portrait mode using the Blackberry Access browser on your mobile phone, and you rotated the phone to view in Landscape mode, you could not scroll to view the page because the right edge of the timesheet was cut off. As a workaround, you can refresh the page.


Defect 1351303: If a Manage Application/Content Links (SYMCMIAL) record was set to report property mismatches, sometimes a false report like the following may display for numeric metadata values:

"Costpoint Field 'Rlse' Value: 0 <>Content Property 'PO RLSE' Value: 0."


Defect 1363668: When you logged in to Time & Expense 10 on a mobile device, the desktop user interface displayed instead of the mobile user interface.

Defect 1368171: When you opened the application and queried the part, the Borrow Payback Reservations for the part was incorrect.


Material Requirements Planning >> Update Material Requirements Plan


Defect 1352142: Material Requirements Planning (MRP) randomly assigned purchase order (PO) lines with the same Part/Rev, Due Date, and Inventory Abbreviation to a demand.


Defect 1363938: When you did not use Substitute Part Planning, Costpoint did not use inventory in-demand abbreviation before creating a transfer message from other inventory abbreviations/projects within the project planning group. The use of inventory in-demand should happen even if the other projects' inventory was not in excess and had their own demand due at a later date.


Procurement Planning >> Apply PO Info to Purchase Requisitions By Line


Defect 1362415: When you entered a Project Labor Category (PLC) on the Resources subtask and verifed the PLC description, Costpoint displayed an incorrect PLC description.

Defect 1362405: When you entered a Project Labor Category (PLC) on the Resources subtask and verifed the PLC description, Costpoint displayed an incorrect PLC description.


Production Control >> Enter Manufacturing Order Issues


Defect 1361212: When you created a manufacturing order (MO), assigned inventory allocations to the MO, reloaded the requirements, and reassigned the allocations, the requirements did not autoload upon release of the MO to the Enter Manufacturing Order Issues screen.


Purchasing >> Manage Purchase Orders


Defect 1345698: Costpoint used the Project Labor Category (PLC) description from the BILL_LAB_CAT.BILL_LAB_CAT_DESC table instead of using the value from the PROJ_LAB_CAT.BILL_LAB_CAT_DESC table.


Purchasing >> Print Purchase Orders


Defect 1348065: When a purchase order (PO) had different Ship IDs for each line, the Ship ID address was not printed on PO line 1 but was printed on the remaining lines.


People


Employee >> Manage Employee Taxes


Defect 1365166: The application set the federal filing status of Guam and Virgin Islands employees to Exempt, which resulted to non-zero federal taxable wages in payroll.

Since Guam and Virgin Islands have no federal income tax, the federal filing status should be set to None.

As a workaround, manually set the federal taxable wages to zero.

This issue also affected the following applications:

Payroll >> Print Payment Advices


Defect 1334821: The application did not assign an advice number to an employee with zero net pay. The application did not print the advice even if you selected Print Advices with Zero Net Pay.


Defect 1345024: The application rolled up same pay types with the same entered hours into one hourly rate line even if the pay types had different hourly rates.

Billing >> Calculate Standard Bills


Defect 1341619: When you have no records in the POOL_ALLOC table and you printed an invoice, an Other line was printed with 0.00 figures. As a workaround, you can add records on the Manage Cost Pools screen and then recalculate the bills; this will not print the Other line on the invoice.


Cost and Revenue Processing >> Build Rate Application Table


Defect 1360674: A critical system error occurred when you ran this application.


Cost and Revenue Processing >> Compute Burden Costs
