Ability to Print 1094-C/1095-C Forms on PDF Template Files
Prior to this release, you were able to print Form 1094-C and 1095-C on pre-printed forms from recommended vendors only. In this release, Costpoint adds the ability to print both Form 1094-C and 1095-C in PDF template files. You could use the PDF files to print forms on plain paper. This feature will prevent alignment problems that occur when you use pre-printed forms.
This new feature adds to the existing functionality of printing ACA forms using vendor-provided forms. The current functionality of printing 1094-C and 1095-C data on vendor-provided forms shall be retained in the meantime.
You will be able to print/process Form 1094-Cs and 1095-Cs for the current form and previous three calendar years. Costpoint provides a notification if the IRS PDF file template for the calendar year is not yet available.
Print 1094-Cs (HBR1094C)

W-2 Box 20 and Pennsylvania Worksite PSD Code in W-2 Processing
Based on Pennsylvania Act 18 of 2018, when reporting a Pennsylvania Local Tax, the W-2/W-2C Box 20 should be populated with the employee’s six-digit Worksite PSD Code concatenated with a dash (-) and then the first two digits of the local tax’s District PSD Code from the Manage Local Taxes screen. This Costpoint release will apply changes to multiple applications to report the correct Pennsylvania local tax value and format. The updates will also allow you to edit the Box 20 values in W-2s and W-2cs.
Prior to this release, Costpoint populates the W-2 Box 20 Locality Name with the PSD Code that is assigned to the local tax on the Manage Local Taxes screen. This may not be the same PSD code as the employee’s Worksite PSD Code. The application also did not concatenate the 2-digit district code. Since the value of Box 20 was not stored in W-2 or W-2c, you were not able to edit it.
Create W-2 Table (PRPCW2)
The Create W-2 Table application can now perform the following:
Report all applicable worksite PSD codes on the W-2/W-2c.
Store the Locality Name (Box 20) value in the following columns:
LOCAL_NAME in the Local W-2 Information (LOCAL_W2_FILE) table
PREV_LOCAL_NAME in the Local W-2c Information (LOCAL_W2C_FILE) table
LOCAL_NAME in the Local W-2c Information (LOCAL_W2C_FILE) table
Populate Box 20 with the Worksite PSD Code and first two digits of the Jurisdiction Code (SCHOOL_CD column on the LOCALITY table)
Manage W-2s (PRMW2)
The Manage W-2s application features the following updates:
The following columns were added to the LOCAL_W2_FILE database table:
Secondary Locality Code (SUB_LOCAL_CD): This hidden field functions as a secondary local code. It was added to the existing composite primary key. If the local code is linked to Pennsylvania and it is not for Philadelphia, this field stores the worksite PSD code.
Locality Name (Box 20) (LOCAL_NAME): This field stores the locality name, which was not editable previously.
You are able to edit the Locality Name (Box 20) value.
The application populates Box 20 with the Worksite PSD Code and first two digits of the Jurisdiction Code (SCHOOL_CD column in the LOCALITY table).
Populate the secondary local code (SUB_LOCAL_CD) in the Local Withholding (LOCAL_W2_FILE) table based on the following conditions:
If the Costpoint local tax code (LOCAL_CD) in the Local Withholding (LOCAL_W2_FILE) table is not linked to Pennsylvania, the value of the secondary local code will be the same as the Costpoint local tax code.
If the Costpoint local tax code (LOCAL_CD) in the Local Withholding (LOCAL_W2_FILE) table is linked to Pennsylvania and it is not for Philadelphia (PA_LOCAL_CD column is N in the LOCALITY table), the secondary local code shall be the employee’s Worksite PSD Code.
If the Costpoint Local Tax code (LOCAL_CD) in the Local Withholding (LOCAL_W2_FILE) table is linked to Pennsylvania and it is for Philadelphia (PA_LOCAL_CD is Y in the LOCALITY table), the secondary local code shall be PHILLY.
Manage W-2Cs (PRMW2C)
The Manage W-2Cs application features the following updates:
The following fields were added to the Local W-2c Information (LOCAL_W2C_FILE) database table:
Secondary Locality Code (SUB_LOCAL_CD): This hidden field functions as a secondary local code. It was added to the existing composite primary key. If the local code is linked to Pennsylvania and it is not for Philadelphia, this field stores the Worksite PSD code.
Previous Locality Name (Box 20) (PREV_LOCAL_NAME): This field will now store the previously reported locality name, which was not editable previously.
Locality Name (Box 20) (LOCAL_NAME): This field stores the correct locality name, which was not editable previously.
You are able to edit following fields:
Previously reported 20 Locality name
Correct information 20 Locality name
The application populates Box 20 with the Worksite PSD Code and first two digits of the Jurisdiction Code (SCHOOL_CD column on the LOCALITY table).
The application populates the secondary local code (SUB_LOCAL_CD) in the Local W2C Information (LOCAL_W2C_FILE) table based on the following conditions:
If the Costpoint local tax code (LOCAL_CD) in the Local Withholding (LOCAL_W2C_FILE) table is not linked to Pennsylvania, the value of secondary local code will be the same as the Costpoint local tax code.
If the Costpoint local tax code (LOCAL_CD) in the Local Withholding (LOCAL_W2C_FILE) table is linked to Pennsylvania and it is not for Philadelphia (PA_LOCAL_CD is N in the LOCALITY table), the secondary local code shall be the employee’s Worksite PSD Code.
If the Costpoint local tax code (LOCAL_CD) in the Local Withholding (LOCAL_W2C_FILE) table is linked to Pennsylvania and it is for Philadelphia (PA_LOCAL_CD is Y in the LOCALITY table), the secondary local code shall be PHILLY.
Print W-2s (PRRW2)
The Print W-2s application features the following updates:
The value of Box 20 now comes from the LOCAL_NAME column in the LOCAL_W2_FILE table for the W-2 report.
The value of previously reported Box 20 now comes from the PREV_LOCAL_NAME column in the LOCAL_W2C_FILE table for the W-2c report.
The value of correct Box 20 information now comes from the LOCAL_NAME column in the LOCAL_W2C_FILE table for the W-2c report.
Print W-2 Summary Report (PRRW2R)
The application now gets the value of Box 20 from the LOCAL_W2_FILE or LOCAL_W2C_FILE table. The following are the details:
The value of Box 20 now comes from the LOCAL_NAME column in the LOCAL_W2_FILE table for the W-2 summary report.
The value of previously reported Box 20 now comes from the PREV_LOCAL_NAME column in the LOCAL_W2C_FILE table for the W-2c report summary report.
The value of correct Box 20 information now comes from the LOCAL_NAME column in the LOCAL_W2C_FILE table for the W-2c report summary report.
Export Payroll Taxes (PRPEXTAX)
The Export Payroll Taxes application features the following updates:
New fields were added for locality name (Box 20).
Field 44 (Local Pennsylvania PSD Code) is now populated with the worksite PSD code if the State is PA. Otherwise, this field will be set to a NULL value. Previously, this was populated with the district PSD Code.
Field 45 (Employee Resident PSD Code) is now populated with the resident PSD code if the State is PA. Otherwise, this field will be set to a NULL value. Previously, this was populated with the resident PSD Code regardless if the State is PA or not. This is also a NULL value in the W-2c record.
Field 84 (Previously Reported Tax Code) is not being used to report the value of W-2c Box 20. To reflect this, "(W-2c Box 20)" was removed from the field name.
For the W-2c file, the amounts in the following fields are now grouped by the SUB_LOCAL_CD column in the LOCAL_W2C_FILE table:
Field 28 (W-2 Box 18)
Field 35 (W-2 Box 19)
Field 79 (Previously Reported W-2c Box 18)
Field 80 (Previously Reported W-2c Box 19)
Print Data Dictionary Report (SYRDD)
The Print Data Dictionary Report now provides updated information for the following tables:
LOCAL_W2_FILE
LOCAL_W2C_FILE
W-2s (ESMELECW2)
The Box 20 locality name now comes from the LOCAL_NAME column in LOCAL_W2_FILE table for both the screen and report.
Allow Users to Reorder Their Favorites
From the Charge Favorites subtask, you will now be able to assign charge codes a number to control the order in which they display on your timesheet.
If the charge codes are left unnumbered, the display order is based on current functionality.
This enhancement is related to a Timesheet improvement initiative described in KB Article 109655.
Default the “Load” Option for Favorites
When you add a charge code to your Favorites, it will automatically load on the next timesheet.
You can still clear the Load checkbox on the Charge Favorites subtask if you do not want to load a charge on future timesheets.
This enhancement is related to a Timesheet improvement initiative described in KB Article 109655.
