Important Notes


These release notes address all of the modules associated with Deltek Costpoint 8.1.34, some of which your firm may not use. Skip the sections that do not apply to your implementation of Deltek Costpoint.

The Build Deployed In and Dependent Files lines for defects and the list of required files included in enhancement descriptions are meant to support the Pick and Choose deployment model. If your company or system supports Pick and Choose, refer to the Downloading and Deploying Pick and Choose Hot Fixes section of these release notes for more information.

If you do not support Pick and Choose, you may ignore the deployed and dependent files listed in this document. Updates are still packaged as cumulative releases for MRs.

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 send an email to DeltekDocumentationFeedback@deltek.com.

You can print these release notes or save this page as a PDF. Do one of the following actions:

 

De-supporting Microsoft SQL Server 2017

Deltek will be de-supporting Microsoft SQL Server 2017 for Costpoint 8.1 on December 31, 2024. Please plan accordingly.

 

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.

 

Update W-4 Information of Iowa Employees for 2024 Filing

Important: This action is required if you have Iowa Employees. 

Iowa revised the IA W-4 (Employee Withholding Allowance Certificate), resulting in a change to the way an employee’s Iowa withholding credit information is determined. Rather than requesting the number of allowances an employee would like to claim, the IA W-4 now requests a dollar amount.

To accommodate the employee setup, updates made in Costpoint MR 8.1.28 included the following:

In Costpoint MR 8.1.29, the Iowa state withholding computation was updated so that an employee’s credit amount will be based on the Credit Amount field on the Manage Employee Taxes screen, rather than the Number of Credits field. If your Iowa employees have not already reviewed their Iowa W-4 information you should instruct them to do so before computing payroll. Costpoint Payroll customers with Iowa employees should do the following:

  1. Go to People » Employee Self Service » Payroll and Benefits » State Withholding.

  2. Populate the Credit Amount with the total allowance amount from line 6 of your 2024 IA W-4.

  3. Click Save.

It is important for Iowa employees to update their IA W-4 information before payroll is computed in Costpoint MR 8.1.29 or a higher version since the Iowa tax withholding computation will be updated in those versions. If you upgrade to one of those versions and an Iowa employee has not yet updated their Iowa W-4 information, their credit amount will be 0.00 and may result in a higher withholding amount than expected.

 

Update Iowa Setup in ESS Configure State Tax Settings

Iowa updated their marital status options with the release of their 2024 IA W-4 employee withholding allowance certificate. To accommodate the new statuses, Costpoint MR 8.1.29 applied the following:

If your employees use Costpoint Employee Self Service (ESS) to update their state tax information, Deltek recommends you assign the new HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD status to Iowa on the Configure State Tax Settings screen and update the filing status descriptions for the MARRIED (Married Filing Jointly) and SINGLE (Other) filing statuses to be consistent with the 2024 IA W-4.

The Create Federal W-2 File screen now supports the updated record layouts for the EFW2 and EFW2C files.

 

EFW2 File Changes

 

EFW2C File Changes

 

This enhancement requires the following:


2025 ACA Affordability Threshold

The IRS sets the 2025 ACA affordability threshold at 9.02%. This release sets the safe harbor affordability rate for payroll year 2025 on the Manage Federal Taxes screen.

Attention: For more information, see: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-drop/rp-24-35.pdf.

This enhancement requires the following:


Allow Selection of Safe Harbor for ACA 1095-C Report

When you create your data for the Affordable Car Act (ACA) 1095-C report, Costpoint now allows you to select the Affordable Care Act Safe Harbor method that will be used for all employees or for a category of employees based on employees’ rate type and GLC. The Create 1094-C and 1095-C data screen provides a new Affordability Safe Harbor Option subtask where you can select one or more of the following affordability safe harbors:

 

Affordability Safe Harbor Option Subtask

On the header of the subtask, you can select the affordability safe harbor options that will be used for the taxable entity. All three safe harbors under which an employer can determine affordability for all employees are selected by default. You must select at least one option in the header. This subtask is not available if Reporting Type is 1094-C Data.

 

Affordability Safe Harbor Option by Employee Categories Table

On the Affordability Safe Harbor Option by Employee Categories table, you can select the employees’ rate type/GLC combination to use a safe harbor option for specific employee categories. If this table is blank, the affordability safe harbor selected in the header will be used for all employees, when applicable. Likewise, If you did not select a rate type/GLC combination for an employee category, then the application will also use the affordability safe harbor selected in the header. This subtask is optional.

 

Note: Currently, the Create 1094-C and 1095-C data screen has the following issues which will be fixed in a future release:

 

This enhancement requires the following:


Combine Multiple Deductions and Local Taxes for the Same W-2 Box 14 Line

You can now combine multiple deductions and local taxes assigned to the same W-2 box 14 line. When you run the Create W-2 Table process, a warning will display if more than one deduction and/or locality are assigned to the same box 14 line. The message will display the list of deduction codes and locality codes assigned to the same box 14 line number, and the amounts of these codes will be summed up when W-2s are created. You can opt to manually remove the box 14 line number assignment from a deduction code or locality code listed in the warning message if it should not be included in the summation.

This enhancement requires the following:


Form W-2 Support for Tax Year 2024

Costpoint has been fully tested to support the pre-printed forms W-2 and W-2c from Deltek’s partner form vendors for the 2025 filing. If you encounter alignment issues when you print on pre-printed forms, you may need to adjust the margins on your printer settings or Costpoint’s page setup. Refer to your printer’s documentation for information on how to configure the margins of your printer.

This enhancement requires the following:


Report Pension-Linked Emergency Savings Account in Form W-2

Pension-Linked Emergency Savings Accounts (PLESA) are introduced under the SECURE 2.0 Act, specifically section 127. These accounts allow employers to add emergency savings accounts to a defined contribution plan, such as a 401(k), 403(b), or governmental 457(b) plan. Employees can make designated Roth contributions to these accounts, which can be withdrawn under certain conditions.

Contributions must be reported on Form W-2, box 12, using specific codes depending on the type of plan:

Contributions to pension-linked emergency savings accounts are also reported in Box 12 of Form W-2.

The existing Emergency Savings Account (ESA) deduction type does not indicate if it was linked to a 401(k), 403(b), or 457(b). To address this issue, the ESA deduction type can no longer be assigned to new deductions or contributions. Instead, three new deduction types for PLESA have been added on the Manage Deductions screen to replace the ESA deduction type.

 

Manage Deductions (PRMDED)

You can now select the following from the Deduction Type field:

An error message will display if you assign the old ESA deduction type to new records. A warning message will be displayed on existing deduction records if the deduction type is ESA.

 

Create W-2 Table (PRPCW2)

The calculation for following Box 12 code amounts were updated:

ESA deduction types will not be included in codes AA, BB, and EE.

The screen will display an error message if there is at least one deduction in employee earnings deduction having an ESA deduction type.

 

This enhancement requires the following:


USERRA Make-up Amounts

You can now select USERRA make-up amounts for 2023, 2022, and 2021 on the Box 12 subtask of the Manage W-2s screen. The Code field lookup now lists the following new Box 12 codes:

Alabama Overtime Exemption Reporting in Accordance with the FLSA

In 2023, Alabama passed a law exempting overtime compensation from state income taxes from Jan. 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025. The exemption applies to overtime compensation paid during the exemption period to employees paid on an hourly basis for work performed in excess of 40 hours in a week.

Starting October 1, the exemption will instead apply to any overtime compensation provided in accordance with the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), under HB 407. This change will remain in effect until the exemption expires on June 30, 2025.

HB 407 also amends employer reporting requirements to conform with the exemption modification.

 

Export Payroll Taxes (PRPEXTAX)

The Export Payroll Taxes application will now report overtime exempt wages in the STEE tax type to use the FLSA rule effective Oct 1, 2024. The following fields were updated for this functionality:

 

Print State Overtime Wages Report (PRRSOTW)

When reporting Alabama’s overtime paid beginning October 1, 2024, the Print State Overtime Wages Report will include only employees with an FLSA Classification of Non-Exempt on the Manage Employee Salary Information screen regardless of their rate type. In addition, the employee eligibility on the Manage Pay Types screen shall no longer be checked.

 

This enhancement requires the following:


Alabama Overtime Pay Exemption Reporting in Form W-2 Box 14

For the tax year beginning on or after January 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025, overtime pay received by a full-time hourly wage paid employee for hours worked above 40 in any given week is excluded from gross income and therefore exempt from Alabama state income tax.

To support the reporting of exempt overtime wages of Alabama, Costpoint can now report exempt overtime wage in Box 14 of employees Form W-2 using “EX OT” as the indicator, for example, EX OT $15,250.

Attention: For more information, see: https://www.revenue.alabama.gov/individual-corporate/overtime-exemption/.

 

Create W-2 Table (PRPCW2)

The application now calculates Alabama’s exempt overtime amount based on Alabama’s earnings records where overtime pay type is configured to be exempt from Alabama's income tax. The calculated amount will be reported in Box 14 using “EX OT” code.
