Deltek Costpoint 8.0.20 Release Notes (Build 8.0.20.5001)
Welcome to the Deltek Costpoint 8.0.20 Release Notes, which describe the new features and enhancements introduced in this release.
These release notes address all of the modules associated with Deltek Costpoint 8.0.20, 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 all Costpoint systems selected. If a Time & Expense segment exists, the installer searches for the presence of a Time & Expense license in that Costpoint system, and lists any systems for which there is no Time & Expense license.
If a prompt displays, review the list and select the appropriate action:
Using the Apply License utility in the Costpoint DB Wizard, apply a Time & Expense license to the Costpoint system(s) in the list for which the connected Time & Expense segment is not for a stand-alone, external connection that should have a Time & Expense license applied to it.
Any stand-alone, external Time & Expense segments for which a Time & Expense license is not present, or for which the Time & Expense segment is for a Time & Expense 901 system, will not have the MR Time & Expense patches, SPs, or Data Dictionary files applied to them. These Time & Expense segments are marked as External TESS segments.
If all the systems listed are actual stand-alone, external (non-licensed) Time & Expense segments and you want them converted to external segments without applying the MR to them, click OK to proceed.
If you are unsure, please contact Deltek Costpoint Technical Support.
2022 Additional Amount for Nonresident Alien Employees

2022 Form 941 Updates (DRAFT)
The draft Form 941, which has a March 2022 revision date, contained several changes when compared with the version in effect for the second through fourth quarters of 2021. The changes are the following:
The note next to Lines 5a to 5d was revised to clarify the reporting of qualified paid sick and family leave wages. Qualified wages paid in 2022 for leave taken in the second and third quarters of 2021 are to be included in Line 5a. Lines 5ai and 5aii are to be used only for qualified leave wages paid in 2022 for leave taken after March 31, 2020, and before April 1, 2021.
Lines 11c, 13d, 21, and 22, which were previously used to report amounts pertaining to the employee retention credit, were labeled “Reserved for future use” in the draft 2022 version. Lines 13h and 13i, which pertained to Form 7200 advances, were similarly labeled.
A draft of revised instructions for Form 941, Employer’s Quarterly Federal Tax Return, were released January 31 by the Internal Revenue Service. The changes are the following:
The credits for qualified paid sick and paid family leave wages may be claimed only for wages paid for leave taken after March 31, 2020, and before Oct. 1, 2021. However, employers that pay qualifying wages in 2022 for leave taken in that time period still may claim the credit; Lines 11b, 11d, 13c, and 13e may be used only for this purpose.
The COBRA premium assistance credit expired Sept. 30, 2021. However, employers still may claim the credit if an eligible person elected coverage in the first quarter of 2022 for periods between April 1 and Sept. 30, 2021.
The worksheets that allowed employers to calculate the employee retention credit, formerly named Worksheets 2 and 4, were removed.
The worksheet for calculating the credit for qualified leave wages for leave taken in the second and third quarters of 2021, formerly named Worksheet 3, was renamed Worksheet 2 and updated to remove lines that referred to the employee retention credit.
The worksheet for calculating the COBRA premium assistance credit, formerly Worksheet 5, was renamed Worksheet 3.
Earlier versions of Form 941 may not be used for reporting in 2022.

Employee Taxes
Colorado 2022 Tax Table Updates
Colorado introduced a new state W-4. Previously, Colorado employees used the federal W-4. Now, employees have the option of using either the federal W-4 or the new withholding certificate, Form DR 0004, Colorado Employee Withholding Certificate. The two certificates are similar, but the DR 0004 allows employees to specify a standard deduction amount that differs from the federal standard deduction amount. This change also caused a change to Step 2a of Colorado’s state withholding formula.
The steps of the formula that reduce the amount of taxable wages and take into account additional withholding were changed to accommodate Form DR 0004.
In Step 2a of the formula, the standard amounts of $8,000 or $4,000 that depend on an employee’s federal filing status are replaced with the amount from Line 2 of Form DR 0004 if the employee filled out the form. In Step 2e, for additional state withholding, the amount from Line 3 of Form DR 0004 is used if filled out. However, if the employee requested additional withholding before 2022, that amount can be used until the employee submits a new withholding certificate.
Compared to a draft of Form DR 0004 released Sept. 26, the final version adds an additional income bracket for the child tax credit allowance values on Worksheet 1, fills in amounts that were represented by placeholders in the draft, and makes changes to phrasing in the instructions.
Form DR 0004 is optional to fill out, but employers are required to provide it to employees who ask about adjusting their state withholding. Starting in 2022, employees who wish to adjust their state withholding must use Form DR 0004 to do so.

Specify an annual withholding allowance amount based on the Standard Allowance table and Worksheet 1 from the DR 0004 Colorado Employee Withholding Certificate (If you want a greater amount withheld, you may enter a smaller amount than either calculation.)
Annual Withholding Allowance
If you selected the option to specify an annual withholding amount, enter the annual withholding allowance amount based on the Standard Allowance table and Worksheet 1 from the DR 0004 Colorado Employee Withholding Certificate.
