To comply with the latest guidance from the California Civil Rights Department (CRD) and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Costpoint has been updated to support the revised race and ethnicity classifications for the 2024 California Pay Data Reporting cycle.

A new category, Middle Eastern or North African (MENA), has been added to reflect updated federal standards. This category is now recognized separately from the White category

The term “Multiracial and/or Multiethnic” replaces “Two or More Races.” The term “Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander” no longer includes “Other.”

When an employee’s race is recorded as MENA, the California Pay Data – Payroll Employee Report and Labor Contractor Employee Report will now display one of the following codes in the Race/Ethnicity/Sex column:

• B70 – Non-Hispanic/Non-Latino – Male – Middle Eastern or North African

• C70 – Non-Hispanic/Non-Latino – Female – Middle Eastern or North African

• D70 – Non-Hispanic/Non-Latino – Non-Binary – Middle Eastern or North African

Note: You must use the MENA code on the Manage Race and Ethnicity Codes (LDMRACE) screen to enable this functionality.

For EEO-1 reporting purposes, MENA will continue to be mapped to the White category until further guidance is issued by the EEOC.

 

Print EEO-1 Report (HAREEO1)

The Payroll Employee Report has been enhanced to support the new MENA classification and updated terminology for California Pay Data Reporting.

Beginning January 1, 2025, Delaware employers will be required to make contributions on behalf of their workforce for Delaware Paid Family Leave. Paid Family Leave is comprised of three different parts and employers may choose to have employees contribute up to 50% of the contribution. The tax will be based on the employee’s percentage of their Social Security wages for Delaware. If the employee is taxed in a state other than Delaware, that state’s percentage of Social Security wages will not be included in the taxable amount. Premiums are capped at the Social Security cap for the current year. Employers will have to set up local taxes for Delaware Paid Family Leave with the Social Security limit. It is recommended that separate taxes are set up for each type below:

• Parental Leave: 0.32%

• Medical Leave: 0.40%

• Family Caregiver / Qualified Exigency Leave: 0.08%

• Total rate: 0.80% of Delaware Social Security wages

In Costpoint, Delaware employers must:

• Set up least two local tax statuses for Delaware PFML, one with the actual tax rate for employers and one with a 0% tax rate for those employees with waivers. The 0.0% tax rate will still calculate taxable wages and will allow the employees to be submitted in the wage and hour report without withholding any taxes for them.

• Set up a Delaware PFML tax for employee contributions if they choose to have employees also contribute to paying part of the tax. Employers should send in the appropriate forms to Delaware when an employee has a waiver.

 

Create Quarterly Family and Medical Leave File (LDPPFML)

You can now select Delaware from the State drop-down list to generate the file and report for Delaware.

To support this new function, the screen adds the following fields:

Field	Description
Weeks Worked	This field is enabled when the state is Delaware. Enter the default number of weeks worked in the quarter. Any employees who did not work the standard number of weeks should be entered in Manage SUTA “Weeks Worked” Override application for that Fiscal Year/Quarter for Delaware.
Employer Contribution %	This field is enabled when the state is Delaware. Employers should enter the percentage of the Delaware Paid Family Leave contribution that they cover.

The Export Payroll Taxes screen now supports reporting out-of-state Social Security (FICA) taxes to comply with Delaware's requirements.

Delaware has introduced paid family leave and a new method for calculating local taxes to determine the Delaware percentage of Social Security (FICA) taxes. This includes out-of-state Social Security (FICA) taxes in the calculation.

Payroll administrators can now report the out-of-state portion of Social Security (FICA) taxes through the Export Payroll Taxes screen to comply with Delaware Paid Family Leave reporting requirements.

 

Export Payroll Taxes (PRPEXTAX)

When the local tax calculation is based on State % of SS Taxable Wages (the state percentage of Social Security taxable wages), the application will report the out-of-state taxable wages in the following fields of the LCEE and LCER local tax types:

• Field 92: Check combined Social Security (FICA) out-of-state wages

• Field 93: Quarter-to-date (QTD) combined Social Security (FICA) out-of-state wages

• Field 94: Year-to-date (YTD) combined Social Security (FICA) out-of-state wages

Other tax types will have the same fields but will contain no (NULL) values.

Employers registered for unemployment insurance coverage in Idaho must report and pay unemployment insurance taxes quarterly. Reports and payments are due on the last day of the month following the end of each calendar quarter (for example, the quarter including January, February, and March is due April 30).

Add a record dated 01/01/2025 to all WV tax tables and update the following:

• PRMSTI: Set Round W/H Amount to 'Y'

• PRMSTT

Costpoint previously allowed the entry of a negative additional amount on the Manage Employee Taxes screen. However, if this resulted in a negative withholding, the system did not set the withholding to zero. Additionally, a validation for negative amounts prevented employees from entering a negative withholding amount for Louisiana on the Employee Self Service State Withholding screen.

To address these issues, Costpoint now provides an option to allow a negative additional amount for specific states. When the new option is enabled, the following will be applied:

• In state withholding screens, if a negative additional amount is permitted for a state, the validation for negative amounts will not be displayed, allowing the entry of negative numbers.

• During payroll computation, if the calculated or recalculated withholding amount for the pay period is less than zero, the application will set the withholding amount to zero, provided specific conditions are met.

 

Configure State Tax Settings (AOMESSST)

The screen provides the following new field:

Field	Description
Allow negative extra withholding	Select this checkbox if negative amount is allowed in the Extra Withholding per Paycheck field in ESS State Withholding screen to reduce employee’s tax withholding. The Louisiana Form L-4, Employee’s Withholding Allowance Certificate, allows the employee to either increase or decrease the amount to withhold on Line 8, with a decrease indicated as a negative amount.

The label of the Allow extra withholding per paycheck checkbox was updated for consistency with the Manage Employee Taxes and ESS State Withholding screens:

 

State Withholding (ESMSTATEWH)

If the Allow negative extra withholding checkbox is selected for the state on the Configure State Tax Settings screen, the State Withholding screen will not display the validation for negative amounts and allow the entry of negative numbers.

This update was also applied to the State Withholding tab on the Life Events/New Hires screen.

 

Compute Payroll (PRPCPR)

This enhancement sets the final withholding amount to zero only when the initial withholding amount is positive (or zero) and the additional amount is negative, resulting in a negative withholding amount. In all other cases, the existing functionality will remain unchanged. This is applicable to all states by default.

This update was also applied to the Manage Payroll Edit Report (PRMPTF) screen.

 

Print Data Dictionary Report (SYRDD)

The Print Data Dictionary Report now includes information for the new Allow negative extra withholding flag (NEG_EXTRA_WH_FL) column on the ESS_STATE_TAX table.

• Payroll administrators can now define deduction limits based on age groups and specific date ranges on the Manage Deduction Group Limits Screen.

• During payroll computation, Costpoint will enforce the deduction limits by age and date ranges as set on the Manage Deduction Group Limits screen.

If the employee’s age falls within the age range during the dates set in the Effective Dates’ record, the deductions linked to the deduction group will not be withheld once the Group Limit has been reached. From Age * To Age * Group Limit 0 49 23,500 50 59 31,000 60 63 34,750 64 99 31,000 If you do not want to have limits by age, you can select the Date Range option and set one Group Limit amount for all employees for a date range on the Effective Dates subtask.
Group Limits by Age	This subtask is enabled when you select the Age and Date Range from the Group Limits by options. You can set up different group limits for different age ranges in this subtask. This may be used for catch-up limits for 401K and other retirement deductions. If the employee’s birthday is later in the year, they will still be eligible for the date range. If you do not set up a range for all employee ages, the employees that do not fall into a range will not have a group limit for their deductions. This will be on the Effective Dates subtask

Each row in the Effective Dates subtask will have a record in the new age range subtask depending on the Group Limits by option.

Note: You need to set up a new Deduction Group Limits record if you want to use the new functionality. Any current deduction group will not be able to calculate by age ranges.

 

Compute Payroll (PRPCPR)

The existing process for deduction group limits was updated to check the employee’s age when the deduction group has an age/date range.

 

Update Employee Deductions/Contributions (PRPSDED)

You can now select to update records by hire date and include specific employee types in the update process. The following fields were added for this feature:

Field	Description
Hire Date	From the drop-down field, select a range option for employee hire dates to be included in the process. Valid options are: All: Select this option to include all hire dates in the process. One: Select this option to include only one hire date in the process. Enter the hire date in the Start field. Range: Select this option to include a range of hire dates in the process.

Previous Costpoint releases removed the Taxable Entity Totals under Gross Amount and Subject Amount in the Local Withholding Report. This update restores these totals and adds other essential taxable entity totals to the report.

 

Print Local Withholding Report (PRRLCWH)

The Local Withholding Report will now include the following taxable entity totals:

• Total Gross Amount Across Localities: This reflects the sum of gross amounts across all localities, including potential duplications for employees appearing in multiple localities.

• Total Unique Employee Gross Amount: This ensures that each employee's gross amount is counted only once, avoiding double counting across localities. If an employee has different gross amounts for multiple localities, only the highest applicable amount per employee is considered in this total. Some employees have different gross income amounts across localities, which could happen due to salary adjustments or hourly pay variations.

• Total Subject Amount Across Localities: This reflects the sum of subject wages across all localities, which may include duplicated amounts for employees taxed in multiple localities.

• Total Unique Employee Subject Amount: This ensures that each employee's subject wages amount is counted only once, avoiding double counting across localities. If an employee has different subject amounts for multiple localities, only the highest applicable amount per employee is considered in this total.

• Total Taxable Amount Across Localities: This reflects the sum of taxable wages across all localities, which may include duplicated amounts for employees taxed in multiple localities.

• Total Unique Employee Taxable Amount: This ensures that each employee's taxable wages amount is counted only once, avoiding double counting across localities. If an employee has different taxable amounts for multiple localities, only the highest applicable amount per employee is considered in this total.

• Total Excess Amount Across Localities: This is calculated as Total Subject Amount Across Localities - Total Taxable Amount Across Localities.

• Total Unique Employee Excess Amount: This is calculated as Total Unique Employee Subject Amount - Total Unique Employee Taxable Amount.

Several applications within Time & Expense were updated to reflect a forthcoming feature in People that allows sick leave usage to be capped annually, as per a new California law for hourly employees.

Updates to applications within Time & Expense include:

• Annual leave limit details can now be imported from People (Labor » Timesheet Interface » Export Data to Deltek Time and Expense). The import file includes new fields for importing the usage limit and the usage start and end dates.

• The Resource Leave Error Log in Master Data Import History screen (Configuration » Interfaces) includes the same fields related to usage limit and usage start and end dates.

• The Leave subtask of the Resource Information screen (Time & Expense » Configuration) was updated with new display-only fields that track information related to leave limits imported from People.

• When the timesheet is saved, Time & Expense checks the Usage Limit Hours on the Leave subtask of the Resource Information screen (Time & Expense » Configuration) to ensure that employees have not exceeded the annual leave limit.

• For employees where leave limits apply, notifications sent to supervisors related to leave requests will now include a line of text warning that leave limits may apply. This occurs when requests are sent from either the Timesheet or Work Schedule screens.

To comply with a change in California regulations, rounding functions for Start/Stop Detail timesheet class now allow start and stop times to be summarized by minutes instead of hours.

New Timesheet Classes Configuration Setting

A Calculate Start/Stop Time in Minutes check box was added to the Basic Information tab of the Timesheet Classes (Time » Time Controls) screen.

Note: The new setting is enabled only if Entry Mode is selected as Start/Stop Detail.

When this setting is selected, start and stop times are summarized in minutes per day instead of hours. Rounding is still based on company settings, as for example, by the quarter hour or half hour and so on.

In addition, a new Effective Date field was added directly below the new setting that enables you to set the date on which the change will take effect. Until that date, time entered on the timesheet continues to be summarized by hours or a percentage thereof.

If the effective date falls in the middle of a period, the timesheet is tracked according to the new setting.

Note: It is recommended that you set the effective date far enough in the future so that it does not overlap with any current timesheet periods. In this event, a warning message displays when you save.

 

Updates to the Start/Stop Times Subtask

When the entry mode for a timesheet class is designated as Start/Stop Detail, and if the new configuration setting is selected, the Start/Stop Times subtask of the timesheet displays the total time in minutes rather than hours.

For example, if a break is recorded with a start time of 10:00 a.m. and stop time of 10:15 a.m., 15 displays in the Minutes field.

Note: If the new configuration setting in Timesheet Classes is clear (not selected), the time entered displays as hours or a percentage thereof, and the field is labeled as Hours. This is also true for any timesheet periods that precede the effective date of the setting.
