Important Notes


These release notes address all of the modules associated with Deltek Costpoint 8.1.24, 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.

 

Costpoint Business Intelligence 8.1.18+ and Cognos Analytics with Watson

Costpoint BI 8.1.18+ is compatible with Cognos Analytics with Watson 11.2.4 only. If you are leveraging Cognos Analytics 11.1.7, the highest version of Costpoint BI MR that you can apply is Costpoint BI 8.1.17. Note that you can continue to apply the Costpoint MRs beyond 8.1.17, regardless of which Cognos version you are deploying. Costpoint and Costpoint BI MRs are independent of each other.


Regulatory Enhancements


Federal

Calculation of Federal Income Tax Withheld for Forms 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC

Costpoint now automatically calculates Federal Income Tax Withheld for Forms 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC. 

In the previous process, you must manually enter a negative amount for voucher lines which correspond to federal withholding tax, but the negative amounts are not included when calculating the amount for Box 4 of Forms 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC. You must then manually convert the negative amount to a positive amount on the Edit 1099 Information screen for the federal withholding tax to be correctly calculated when you print Forms 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC.

To simplify this process and eliminate manual adjustment, the Create 1099 Information screen has been updated to automatically process and calculate federal withholding tax amounts, and the Print/Create 1099s and Magnetic Media screen has been updated to automatically convert the negative federal withholding tax amounts and display them as positive values when you print 1099 forms or create magnetic media files.

The new 1099 TypeFEDMIS, has also been added to multiple screens for easier identification and tracking of miscellaneous federal withholding tax, while the existing FED type remains for non-employee compensation federal withholding tax.

The following Accounting screens have been updated to support these enhancements.

 

Manage Vendors (APMVEND)

In the 1099s group box, the Print 1099-MISC Form has been renamed to Print 1099 Form, and the new FEDMIS option has been added to the Type drop-down list. 

 

Manage Accounts Payable Vouchers (APMVCHR)

The new 1099 type, FEDMIS, has been added to the lookup of the 1099 Type field.

 

Manage Purchase Order Vouchers (POMPOVCH)

On the Account Distribution subtask, the new 1099 type, FEDMIS, has been added to the lookup of the 1099 Type field.

 

Manage Vendor History (APMVENDH)

The new 1099 type, FEDMIS, has been added to the lookup of the 1099 Type field of the Voucher Line table window.

 

Create 1099 Information (APP1099C)

This screen has been updated to automatically process and calculate federal withholding tax and include them in 1099 reports and printed forms, and to include partial payments, voided or reissued checks, and voucher discounts when calculating the Total 1099 Amount and Total Taxable Amount for the Taxable Entity or Pay Vendor, and Calendar Year you entered.

 

Edit 1099 Information (APM1099)

The new 1099 type, FEDMIS, has been added to the lookup of the 1099 Type field of the Edit 1099 Information Detail table window.

 

Print 1099 Edit Report (APR1099E)

This screen has been updated to display the following information on the 1099 Edit Report:

If you selected Taxable Entity as the sorting method, a single Total Federal WH Amount displays for the Taxable Entity. If you selected Pay Vendor, the Total Federal WH Amount for each Pay Vendor displays on the report.

 

Print/Create 1099s and Magnetic Media (APR1099)

When you print 1099s or create magnetic media, Costpoint now uses either the FED or FEDMIS code to populate the 1099 forms or magnetic media, depending on the other options you select. In addition, you can no longer print or create 1099 magnetic media using the old formats and calculation methods for calendar years prior to 2023.

The following updates have been applied to the 1099 Types to Include group box to support the new 1099 calculation process when you create magnetic media with a File Code of NEW in the Issuer 'A' Record:

The following updates have also been applied to the Print Format group box to support the new 1099 calculation process when you print 1099s:


State


Arkansas Tax Table Update - Reduce Supplemental Tax Rate to 4.7%

Arkansas decreased the tax rate for supplemental payments from 4.9%. to 4.7%, effective 06/01/2023.

To support the state requirements, this release sets the Arkansas Supplemental Tax Rate to 4.7%, effective 06/01/2023, on the Manage State Taxes (PRMSTI) screen.

This enhancement requires the following files:


Washington Paid Family and Medical Leave & WA Cares Fund Reporting

The WA Cares Fund is a new program that gives working Washingtonians access to long-term care coverage when they need it. Workers contribute 0.58% of each paycheck during their working years to be able to access a $36,500 lifetime benefit (adjusted annually for inflation) that can help pay for long-term care services when needed. Workers begin contributing to WA Cares on July 1, 2023, and benefits become available July 1, 2026. To use your benefit, you must meet a contribution requirement as well as a care need requirement.

The Employment Security Department also released the new (v8) CSV (comma-separated value) file specifications and templates. The new file format now includes a field for date of birth. It also added the requirement to not include employees who have zero hours and zero wages.

In relation to state updates, employers are now required to:

Warning: Washington Paid Family & Medical Leave must be set up on either the Manage Deductions screen or the Manage Local Taxes screen, but not on both.

 

Create Quarterly Family and Medical Leave File (LDPPFML)

The application now has the option to generate a quarterly file for Washington PFML and WA Cares.

 

Print Washington State Paid Family & Medical Leave Report (LDRPFML)

The application can now report PFML wages from local taxes and include PFML waived employees.


Washington WA Cares Exemption Tracking

Effective October 2023, WA Cares reporting will be fully integrated with Paid Leave reporting. The Paid Leave report using the old format will still be accepted until reporting for WA Cares begins in October 2023.

To support the state requirements, Costpoint adds the ability to track employee exemptions and the corresponding effective dates of the exemption. The Manage Employee Taxes screen provides a new WA Cares Fund Exemption checkbox, which allows you to track employees with an approved WA Cares exemption. If an employee is flagged for exemption, effective dates must be provided.

 

Manage Employee Taxes (PRMETAX)

A new Other Payroll Taxes group box, which contains the new fields needed for WA Cares exemption tracking, has been added to the screen.

Field

Select this checkbox if the employee has an approved WA Cares exemption.

If this is selected, the date listed in the approval letter for an exemption from WA Cares coverage must be entered in the Effective Date field.

The value in this field will be reported in the integrated Paid Leave and WA Cares quarterly reporting.

This field will always be enabled regardless of the SUTA state.

Manage Employee Contributions (PRMECNT)

The screen displays the following warning message if a Contribution code with a WACARE deduction type was saved: "There is no employer share of WA Cares Fund premiums."

Access to the Contributions - Project Distribution Subtask on the Manage Employee Earnings History Screen

The Contributions - Project Distribution subtask link will display only when you select the Direct charge employer contributions checkbox.

Affirmative Action Race/Ethnicity System Table Update

Costpoint updates the Affirmative Action Race/Ethnicity System Table (AA_RACES) to reflect the current valid list and no longer supports the old EO Survey list. Costpoint adds error reports that list which employees are linked to inactive Affirmative Action codes. This allows you to correct the data of affected employees and accurately report Affirmative Action data. To support this feature, Costpoint applies updates to multiple applications.

Costpoint users who report affirmative action can link Affirmative Action race codes to their user-defined race/ethnicity codes on the Manage Race and Ethnicity Codes screen. Prior to this enhancement, the Affirmative Action race codes included codes that were used for past EO Survey reporting. Since the EO Survey race codes are no longer needed, they have been removed from the available mapping list. The available affirmative action race codes are now:

The following codes have been removed from the Affirmative Action Race Code list:

If any of your Race/Ethnicity codes are still linked to old Affirmative Action Race Codes, Deltek recommends that you update the mapping to meet current affirmative action requirements when this enhancement is available.

Manage Race and Ethnicity Codes (LDMRACE)

The AA_RACES table now includes an Active flag, which designates AA records that are currently in use. The value for the active flag for each code in the AA_RACES table is based on the currently used Affirmative Action codes. When you use the Lookup functionality for affirmative action codes, the results will display only codes that are active.

 

Print New Hire Analysis Report (HARNHIRE)

The application generates an error report to list any employees that are linked to an inactive Affirmative Action Race Code. If you run the error report, the application will not display the regular report.

 

Print Termination Report (HARTERM)

The application generates an error report to list any employees that are linked to an inactive Affirmative Action Race Code. If you run the error report, the application will not display the regular report.

 

Print Personnel Action Analysis Report (HARPERS)

The application generates an error report to list any employees that are linked to an inactive Affirmative Action Race Code. If you run the error report, the application will not display the regular report.


Defaulting of User and Login ID on New Employee Records from Deltek Talent Management

Costpoint now provides HR managers an option to allow or not allow the defaulting of an employee’s User ID and Login ID when new employee records are imported from Deltek Talent Management.

To support this new functionality, a Do not default User ID and Login ID for new employees checkbox was added to the Transfer Talent Management Data screen. You can select this checkbox if you do not wish to create a User ID and Login ID for new employees upon import.

This enhancement requires the following files:


Export Project/PLC and MO/Routing Deletion Records to Shop Floor Time

When you delete Project/PLC combinations and MO/Routing combinations in Costpoint, those deletion records can now be exported to Shop Floor Time through the Export Project Manufacturing Data application.

To support this functionality, the Export Project Manufacturing Data screen was updated to generate D-Delete action records for deleted Project/PLC links and MO/Routing links.


Use Supplemental Tax Rate for Leave Payout Wages

Leave payout wages may be considered supplemental payments, but, currently, these wages are always taxed as regular wages. Compute Payroll now allows you to to calculate the taxes of leave payout timesheets using supplemental rates. If your company opts to not use the leave payout application to create leave payout timesheets, then you can now select the Leave Payout timesheet type on the Manage Timesheets screen. This will allow you to manually enter a Leave Payout timesheet.

This release also provides the ability to calculate withholding tax on leave payout timesheets as supplemental wages.

Defect 1961637: When you clicked Copy » Copy Data to Paste into New Record(s) on a project and then clicked Copy » Paste Data on another project, the following error message displayed even though the record did not yet exist on the latter project: “This record already exists. This combination of columns must be unique.”

This issue existed on the following subtasks: 

  • Rev Info » Revenue Adjustments 

  • Dir Cost Ceil 

  • Dir Hrs Ceil 

  • Empl Hrs Ceil 

  • Vend Hrs Ceil 

As a workaround, you can use Copy Data to Paste into New Record(s) and Paste Data in the corresponding stand-alone applications of the subtasks, or manually enter the new record(s) in Manage Project User Flow.

Subcontractor Management >> Create Subcontractor Invoices


Defect 1983532: You received the following error message when you ran this application: "You cannot make the invoice line taxable when all Vendor labor rows have Sales Tax/VAT on Labor = 'N,' and there are associated rows in Invoice Labor Vendor Details subtask." This was caused by Costpoint not creating the vendor labor tax line when the work assignment charge line you used was taxable (Taxability was set to Sales Tax) and the Charge Line Sales Tax/VAT Amt value was set to 0.00 on the Manage Work Assignments screen.

The vendor labor tax line should have been created. The charge line's sales tax/VAT amount should also not affect the invoice's vendor labor tax amount.

You also received the following error message: “The total of the vat recovery amount column in the Vendor labor subtask must equal the vat recovery amount allocated for this invoice line.”

As a workaround, create the invoice manually.
