Deltek Costpoint 8.0.4 Release Notes (Build 8.0.4.1003)
Welcome to the Deltek Costpoint 8.0.4 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 8.0.4, 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.
2020 Forms 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC
The IRS released the 2020 Form 1099-NEC, Nonemployee Compensation, which replaces Box 7 in Form 1099-MISC for reporting nonemployee compensation. This shifts the role of the 1099-MISC for reporting all other types of compensation.
1099-NEC
The new 1099-NEC captures any payments to nonemployee service providers, such as independent contractors, freelancers, vendors, consultants, and other self-employed individuals, commonly referred to as 1099 workers.
According to the IRS, a combination of these four conditions distinguishes a reportable payment:
It is made to someone who is not your employee.
It is made for services in the course of your trade or business.
It was made to an individual, partnership, estate, or, in some cases, a corporation.
Payments were $600 or more for the calendar year.
The following are critical guidelines for reporting with Form 1099-NEC:
Do verify that the recipient’s taxpayer ID is correct. You must have Form W-9 from each recipient with the current taxpayer ID before you complete Form 1099-NEC.
Do not use Form 1099-NEC to report personal payments.
Do not use Form 1099-NEC to report employee wages; use Form W-2 instead.
Do not report gross proceeds to an attorney (not fees) on Form 1099-NEC; use Form 1099-MISC instead.
Do not use Form 1099-NEC to report payments of rent to real estate agents or property managers; use Form 1099-MISC instead.
1099-MISC
The IRS also redesigned the 2020 Form 1099-MISC due to the removal of nonemployee compensation reporting in Box 7. The revised form includes other changes to the box numbers for reporting miscellaneous compensation.
The following are critical guidelines for reporting with Form 1099-MISC:
Do report gross proceeds to an attorney (not fees) on Form 1099-MISC.
Do complete a 1099-MISC if you made royalty payments of at least $10 during the year.
Do use Form 1099-MISC for miscellaneous income, such as rents, royalties, and medical and health care payments.
Do not use Form 1099-MISC to report personal payments.
Do not use Form 1099-MISC to report employee wages; use Form W-2 instead.

2020 Affordable Care Act (ACA) Updates
This Costpoint release applies the following 2020 Affordable Care Act enhancements.
New 1095-C Print Options
The IRS released their layout instructions for the ACA 1095-C forms, which included the following changes:
“Name of employee (first name, middle initial, last name)” has been removed from Part III (Page 2).
“Social Security Number” has been removed from Part III (Page 2).
These changes had a large impact on the printing of the 1095-C forms. Prior to this IRS update, you could print Page 2 separately and then use the “Name of employee” at the top of the page to match it with the employee’s Page 1. With the removal of the employee name and social security number from Page 2, it may not be possible to match Page 2 with Page 1 since the IRS did not retain or provide a field to match the two pages. In cases where the covered individuals have the same last name as the employee, this would not be an issue. But there may be cases where the covered individuals do not have the same last name or you have multiple employees with the same last name. This can be problematic in matching up the pages correctly.
In order to address this issue, this Costpoint release provides the following updated 1095-C Page options on the Print 1095-Cs (HBR1095C) screen:
Field
Description
With Covered Individuals
Select this option if you are printing employees with information in Part III, Covered Individuals.
Note: You must run the application with the Page 1 option selected, and then you must run the application again with the Page 2 option selected. Once printed, you will need to match the Page 2 with the appropriate 1095-C Page 1 before you submit/provide the 1095-C to the IRS or to employees.
When you select the With Covered Individuals option, you enable the following options:
Page 1: Select this option if you are printing the first page of the 1095-C, which provides employer and employee information on the front and instructions on the back.
Page 2: Select this option if you are printing the second page of the 1095-C, which provides information in Part III, Covered Individuals.
Without Covered Individuals (Page 1 only)
Select this option if you are printing employees with no information in Part III, Covered Individuals.
To print 1095-Cs, you need to perform the following steps:
Print 1095-C Page 1 for employees with covered individuals.
Print 1095-C Page 2 for employees with covered individuals. You must use the same 1st Sort and 2nd Sort settings when printing Page 2.
After printing Page 2, carefully collate the Page 1 forms with the Page 2 forms.
Print 1095-C Page 1 for employees without covered individuals.
Electronic Filing Updates
The IRS released their E-file instructions for ACA electronic filing, which includes the following updates:
Update 'ty19' to 'ty20' in the namespaces of both manifest and data files

2021 Repayment of Deferred Social Security Withholding
On August 8, 2020, the President signed an executive order which allowed employers to defer Social Security tax withholding for certain employees from September 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. In late August, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) announced that employers that opted to defer the withholding must pay the money back by April 2021.
Costpoint Solution
For employers who opted to defer employee Social Security tax withholding in 2020, Costpoint provides the following new functionality to track and process the repayments.
Note: This enhancement requires dbc_800_10333 and dbc_800_10349.
The Ability to Establish the Total Deferred Amount and the Rules for Repayment
Costpoint adds a new screen, titled Manage Deferred Tax Payments (EMMDFRDTAXPAY). This new screen allows you to manage an employee's deferred Social Security amount and set up the rules for repayment of the deferral. To access the new application, click People > Employee > Employee Payroll Information > Manage Deferred Tax Payments.
Use this screen to specify the deferral dates, the repayment date range, whether the employee or the employer is responsible for repaying the deferred amount, and, if necessary, an override amount to be withheld for any upcoming paychecks. Once the repayments have started, you will also be able to view the check detail for each repayment in the Deferred Tax Payment History table. The subtask will be populated with any pertinent data when an existing record is queried.
There are two methods for populating this new screen:
Method 1: If you used Deltek's recommended method of deferring the employee Social Security withholding, you may populate this screen using the new Create Manage Deferred Tax Payment Records toolkit in the Payroll Toolkit application. To determine the Total Deferred Amount, the toolkit will sum the Deferred Employee Withholding amounts from Manage Employee Earnings History, where the check date is between the specified deferral dates.
Attention: To view the recommend method of deferring employee Social Security withholding, go to the Costpoint Information Center website, and then click Regulatory Updates > Latest News > 2020 Employee Social Security Tax Withholding Deferred from 9/1 to 12/31.
Timing: If this is the method that you choose to create the Deferred Tax Payment records, you should run this toolkit after your final paycheck of 2020 and before computing payroll for the first paycheck in 2021.
Method 2: If you did not use Deltek's recommended method of deferring the employee Social Security withholding, you may manually enter the data on the Manage Deferred Tax Payments (EMMDFRDTAXPAY) screen. You will need to determine each affected employee's total deferred withholding and specify the amount in the Total Deferred Amount field.
Timing: If this is the method you choose to create the Deferred Tax Payment records, you should enter and save the records after your final paycheck of 2020 and before computing payroll for the first paycheck in 2021.
The Ability to Process the Repayment
Whether you use the new Create Manage Deferred Tax Payment records toolkit to generate the Manage Deferred Tax Payments (EMMDFRDTAXPAY) or manually enter the records, you may use either one of the following methods to process the deferred Social Security withholding repayments:
Method 1: A new toolkit, titled Create payroll records to repay deferred Social Security, has been added to the Payroll Toolkit screen. This toolkit can be used to generate X or Y type records to repay the deferral. In order to determine the repayment amount, the toolkit will prorate the employee's balance due over the remaining number of checks within the repayment period or, if you specified an Override Amount per Check, the toolkit will use that value as the repayment amount. The X or Y records generated by this toolkit cannot be edited and will only include the repayment amount. If the Manage Deferred Tax Payments (EMMDFRDTAXPAY) record specifies the employee as the party responsible for the repayments, the amount will be withheld from the employee. Otherwise, if the employer is the responsible party, the repayment amount will be recorded as the employer's Social Security liability.
Method 2: You can manually enter an X or Y record on the Manage Payroll Records screen. In order to identify the record as a deferred Social Security repayment record, you must select the Deferred Social Security Withholding Repayment check box. By selecting this check box, you will have limited access to fields on the screen, and you will only be able to either enter an employee Social Security withholding amount or an employer Social Security accrual amount. You must also have at least one row on the Pay Types subtask or the State Pay Types subtask (for multi-state users) with zero hours and amounts.
Timing: It is important to perform the steps in correct order to process the repayment correctly:
If you are using the new Create payroll records to repay deferred Social Security toolkit to generate the repayment records, ensure you have Check Dates assigned to your pay periods on the Manage Pay Periods screen. Each pay period with a check dated within the deferred Social Security withholding repayment period must have a check date assigned to it in order for the repayment amounts to be calculated correctly.
If the employee is responsible for repaying the deferred Social Security withholding, compute a Regular or Bonus payroll for the affected employee on the Compute Payroll screen. If the employer (not the employee) is responsible for repayment of the deferral, this step is not necessary.
Run the Create payroll records to repay deferred Social Security toolkit or manually enter the repayment record on the Manage Payroll Records screen.
Print paychecks or payment advices.
Post payroll.
The Ability to Export the Deferred Social Security Repayment Amounts to a Third-Party Tax-Reporting Software
This Costpoint release updates the Export Payroll Taxes (PRPEXTAX) application so that the process includes the following:
CHECK Deferred Social Security Withholding Paid Back by Employee field to the Employee Social Security (SSEE) records (Field 76)
QTD Deferred Social Security Withholding Paid Back by Employee field to the Employee Social Security (SSEE) records (Field 77)
YTD Deferred Social Security Withholding Paid Back by Employee field to the Employee Social Security (SSEE) records (Field 78)
CHECK Deferred Social Security Withholding Paid Back by Employer field to the Employer Social Security (SSER) records (Field 76)
QTD Deferred Social Security Withholding Paid Back by Employer field to the Employer Social Security (SSER) records (Field 77)
YTD Deferred Social Security Withholding Paid Back by Employer field to the Employer Social Security (SSER) records (Field 78)
Additional Application Updates
This Costpoint release also provides changes to the following screens to support this enhancement.
Manage Payroll Records (PRMPTF)
The screen provides the following new check box:
Field
Description
Deferred Social Security Withholding Repayment
Select this check box to indicate whether the X or Y record is being used to pay back deferred Social Security withholding.
This check box will only be visible and enabled if the Record Type is X or Y and the Pay Period End Date is 2020 or 2021.
In order to track the repayments using this check box, you may do one of two things:
Method 1: Use the Costpoint Payroll Toolkit to generate an X or Y record that will use the data set up on the Manage Deferred Tax Payments screen to determine the repayment amount. This check box will automatically be selected when the X or Y record is created. It is very important to perform the following steps in correct order to utilize this functionality:
Compute the regular or bonus payroll for the employee.
Either manually enter the employee's repayment information on the Manage Deferred Tax Payments screen or use the Deferred Social Security option in the Payroll Toolkit to generate the records.
Before printing paychecks or advices, run the toolkit to generate the X record to be used as the Deferred Social Security Withholding Repayment record.
Print paychecks or payment advices.
Post payroll.
Method 2: If you prefer not to use Costpoint's Manage Deferred Tax Payments application to manage the payments, you may use manually entered X or Y records to pay the deferred Social Security withholding. It is very important to perform the following steps in correct order to utilize this functionality:
Compute the regular or bonus payroll for the employee.
Before printing paychecks or advices, enter an X or Y record on the Manage Payroll Records screen, select the Deferred Social Security Withholding Repayment check box, and enter the repayment amount in either the Employee Social Security Withholding field or the Employer Social Security Accrual field (if the employer is repaying the deferred tax).
Print paychecks or payment advices.
Post payroll.
Note: If you do not use this check box to flag your repayment records, Costpoint will not be able to report your repayment amounts. When you use this check box to track the repayments, you will have the following advantages:
The IRS has not yet stated how the repayments will be reported. If 941 and 2021 W-2 reporting require separate reporting of the repayments, this check box will allow Costpoint to determine the amounts.
If you use Costpoint Employee Self Service, any corresponding deferred Social Security repayments made by the employee will be reflected in the R (Regular),W (Replacement), or B (Bonus) records displayed on the ESS Payroll Checks screen.
If this check box is selected, it indicates the X or Y record was used to repay deferred Social Security withholding, and only the following fields will be editable:
Record Type (only enabled for new records)
Check Number
Check Date
Disbursement Type
Reference Number
Reference Date
Social Security Employee Withholding
Social Security Employer Accrual
The Pay Type column on the Pay Types subtask (if the Enable Multi-State Tax Withholding check box is not selected for the employee's pay cycle)
The Withholding State and Pay Type columns on the State Pay Types subtask (if the Enable Multi-State Tax Withholding check box is selected for the employee's pay cycle)
Post Payroll Journal (PRPPPCLS)
The application now has the ability to post the Deferred Social Security Withholding Repayment (SS_DFRD_REPAY_FL) check box value from the EMPL_PAYROLL table to the EMPL_EARNINGS table.
Manage Employee Earnings History (PRMERF)
The application provides the following new check box:
Field
Description
Deferred Social Security Withholding Repayment
This check box indicates the X or Y record was used to repay deferred Social Security withholding. If this check box is selected, only the following fields will be editable:
Check Number
Check Date
Social Security Employee Withholding
Social Security Employer Accrual
The Pay Type column on the Pay Types subtask (if the Enable Multi-State Tax Withholding check box is not selected for the employee's pay cycle)
The Withholding State and Pay Type columns on the State Pay Types subtask (if the Enable Multi-State Tax Withholding check box is selected for the employee's pay cycle)
This check box will only be visible if the Record Type is X or Y and the Pay Period End Date is 2020 or 2021.
Payroll Checks (ESMPAYCHECKS)
When the application retrieves a check, it adds the Social Security Withholding from the retrieved check and the Social Security Withholding (EMPL_EARNINGS.ss_wh_amt) from records with the following criteria:
The Record Type is X or Y.
The Check Date is the same as the Check Date of the R (Regular), W (Replacement), or B (Bonus) check being retrieved.
The Check Number is the same as the Check Number of the R (Regular), W (Replacement), or B (Bonus) check being retrieved
The X/Y check’s Deferred Social Security Withholding Repayment flag is Y.
The Employee Social Security Withholding is not equal to 0.00, which means the employee paid for the Deferred Social Security Withholding.
Print Soc Sec and Medicare Reconciliation Report (PRRFICA)
If the screen’s Social Security check box is selected and there are deferred social security withholding repayment records to be reported, the application now creates a new Deferred Social Security Withholding Repayment Report to report X and Y records that were used to repay deferred Social Security withholding.
The Deferred Social Security Withholding Repayment Report includes the following columns:
Employee
Employee Name
Employee Repayment
Employer Repayment
Since repayment amounts are reported in a separate Deferred Social Security Withholding Repayments Report, the application does not include the repayment amounts in the existing Employee Social Security Withholding Reconciliation Report.
Recompute Taxable Wages (PRPRCOMP)
When the application selects records for the recompute process, it excludes EMPL_EARNINGS records with the following values:
EMPL_EARNINGS.s_paychk_type is X or Y.
EMPL_EARNINGS.ss_dfrd_repay_fl is Y.
Print Data Dictionary Report (SYRDD)
The report now provides information for the new Deferred Social Security Withholding Repayment (SS_DFRD_REPAY_FL) column in the following tables:
EMPL_PAYROLL
EMPL_PAYROLL_ADT
EMPL_EARNINGS
EMPL_E_ADT
Accounts Payable >> Import Vendor Employees
Defect 1372091: When you imported vendor employees, Costpoint was unable to update existing vendor employee information. This happened because Costpoint identified existing vendor employees as duplicate records.
Accounts Payable >> Manage Purchase Order Vouchers
Defect 1370141: When you entered a purchase order (PO) voucher, manually entered account distribution lines, and clicked Save, Costpoint incorrectly updated the Sales/VAT Tax Amount of the account distribution lines.
Fixed Assets >> Import Asset Records
Defect 1375722: When you imported asset records, Costpoint did not convert the Asset No to uppercase, which then caused issues when querying the Asset No of the imported assets in other applications.
Security >> Identify Segregation of Duties Conflicts
Defect 1388694: If an application was assigned read-only access in one group but full access in another group, the Identify Segregation of Duties Report did not pick up the conflict.
System Administration >> Set Up Company
Defect 1381411: The new Material Requirements Planning (MRP) settings option to process purchase orders before requisitions will be copied when you create a new company from another company.
Contracts >> Manage Contracts
Defect 1363480: 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 1383292: A system error occurred when only CTM_DOCUMENTS (Documents) had No Rights selected on the Result Set Rights by Application subtask on the Manage User Groups screen and you performed any of the following actions in Manage Subcontracts:
Save a line record on the Subcontract/Project Modifications subtask.
Save a new subcontract record.
As a workaround, in Manage User Groups, provide rights to the Modifications and Subcontract/Project Modifications result sets, and remove Documents from the Result Set Rights by Application subtask.
Change in Behavior
Defect 1380899: When you queried more than one Accounts Payable voucher, the first voucher viewed with an attachment was the only attachment that was visible, and visible for other vouchers, as well. For example, if you queried one record at a time, the attachments were correct for each voucher. However, if you queried multiple records, then the first attachment you saw would then appear to be attached to all the other vouchers.
Framework
Defect 1380281: In some applications, you might have received the following error message when you used Costpoint with French as the selected language:
Unexpected Script Error: TypeError: lbl.split is not a function in APMVEND

Employee >> Manage Employee Leave
Defect 1394558: Congress passed legislation on March 18, the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (H.R. 6201), which created a federal paid sick leave requirement for coronavirus-related needs and expanded the Family and Medical Leave Act to include a paid leave component for employees caring for children whose schools or child care facilities were closed because of the virus outbreak.
The legislation mandates covered employers to provide paid leave for employees affected by the coronavirus if those employees are unable to work or telework. Those employees will receive 2 weeks (80 hours) of paid sick time at the employee’s full regular rate of pay, subject to dollar caps; this is reduced to two-thirds pay if the leave is due to caring for others (for example, a sick or quarantined family member or a child whose school is closed or whose childcare provider is unavailable due to the coronavirus).
To support the legislation, Costpoint must enable the Average Hourly Compensation Rate field on the Paid Family Leave subtask. The field should also be required. The Families First Coronavirus Response Act put a limit on the amount that can be paid to an employee; therefore, this field needs to be enabled for entry of the Average Hourly Compensation Rate in cases where the calculated amount (Average Weekly Wage divided by the Average Weekly Hours) would cause the employee to exceed the mandated dollar cap.
