Updated DeltekCAP.jar File Now Available

The new DeltekCAP.jar file, which fixes the issue that caused conflicts with the Cognos Analytics audit reports in versions 11.2.4 FP1 and FP2, is now available. After installing Deltek Costpoint Business Intelligence 8.2.3, copy the new DeltekCAP.jar file and replace the existing one in your Cognos Analytics server. For every change, Deltek recommends that you make a backup copy of your production environment.

To replace the DeltekCAP.jar file in the Cognos Analytics server:

  1. Go to the installation directory of Costpoint BI 8.2.3 and open the CAP8.2 folder. The default location is C:\Program Files (x86)\Deltek\CostpointBusinessIntelligence\CBI823\zSupport Files\CAP8.2.

  2. Look for the DeltekCAP.jar file and copy the file to {Cognos Server}\C:\Program Files\ibm\cognos\analytics\webapps\p2pd\WEB-INF\lib.

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 positive values when you print 1099 forms or create magnetic media files.

The new 1099 Type, FEDMIS, 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 Total Amount Paid, Total Federal Withholding Tax Amount, and Total Tax Amount on the 1099 Edit Report for the Taxable Entity you entered. 

 

Print/Create 1099s and Magnetic Media (APR1099)

If you enter 2023 or later as the Calendar Year, Costpoint uses either the FED or FEDMIS code to populate the 1099 forms or magnetic media, depending on the other options you select. 

In the 1099 Types to Include group box:

In the Print Format group box:


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.

Note: This update requires patch dbc_820_11193.


California Updated Pay Data Report as of 2022 Reporting Year

Costpoint adds the ability to generate a Payroll Employee Report and Labor Contractor Employee Report according to the latest requirements of the California Pay Data Report.

The California Pay Data Report generated by Costpoint’s Print EEO-1 Report application was updated with the following:


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, the effective dates must be provided.

 

Manage Employee Taxes (PRMETAX)

The screen adds a new Other Payroll Taxes group box, which contain the new fields needed for WA Cares exemption tracking.

Field

Description

WA Cares Fund Exemption

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.

Effective Date

Enter, or click Calendar Lookup to select, the date the employee’s Washington Cares Fund exemption takes effect.

This is the date listed in the employee’s approval letter for an exemption from WA Cares coverage.

This field will be enabled if the WA Cares Fund Exemption checkbox is selected, and cleared if the WA Cares Fund Exemption checkbox is deselected.

End Date

Enter, or click Calendar Lookup to select, the date the employee’s Washington Cares Fund conditional exemption ended.

This field will be enabled if the WA Cares Fund Exemption checkbox is selected, and disabled if the WA Cares Fund Exemption checkbox is deselected.

 

View Employee Taxes (PRQETAX)

The screen adds new fields needed for WA Cares exemption tracking.

Field

Description

If this checkbox is selected, the employee has an approved WA Cares exemption as of the transaction date/time.

WA Cares Fund Exemption Effective Date

This field displays the date the employee’s WA Cares Fund exemption takes effect.

WA Cares Fund Exemption End Date

This field displays the end date of the employee’s Washington Cares Fund conditional exemption.

 

Manage Employee Deductions (PRMEDED)

The screen adds validations and defaulting for WA Cares deduction to align with the WA Cares Fund Exemption effective dates on the Manage Employee Taxes screen.

 

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."

 

Print Data Dictionary Report (SYRDD)

The Print Data Dictionary Report displays information for the new fields in the EMPL_TAX and EMPL_TAX_ADT tables:


Enhancements


Accounting

CSV Option for Importing Accounts Payable Vouchers

You can now import Accounts Payable (A/P) vouchers using a Comma-Separated Values (CSV) input file.

A CSV file is a text file format that uses commas to separate values. It stores table data in plain text, and each line in the file represents one record. Each record consists of the same number of fields which are separated by commas in the CSV file.

You can enter Header, Detail, or Vendor Labor records. You must import a header format file for every detail format file, while vendor labor format files are optional. 

You can import both A/P vouchers in your functional currency, or multicurrency A/P vouchers using a CSV input file.

Refer to the Processing Details sections of the Import Accounts Payable Vouchers screen and Import Accounts Payable Multicurrency Vouchers screen help topics to view the format of input files.

 

Example

Voucher Header input file:

Screen Updates

To support this enhancement, the new Comma-Separated Values option has been added to the Select Input Format drop-down list of the Import Accounts Payable Vouchers and Import Accounts Payable Multicurrency Vouchers screens.

General

Share Record

Use the new Share Record feature to share the URL of a Costpoint record. Share Record is available in Table view when you select a record and click the arrow in the column header or right-click the column header. In Form view, right-click the form to access Share Record. When you click Share Record, Costpoint copies the URL to the browser clipboard. You can then paste the link or choose a sharing option on your device or computer.

Costpoint login is required to access the shared record.


Framework

Improved Multi-Row Selection Functionality in Table View

Instead of using keyboard shortcuts to select multiple rows in Table View, such as CTRL+click or COMMAND+click, you now can click a column header or click its arrow and select the new Enable Multi-Row Selection Mode feature. In Multi-Row Selection mode, Costpoint displays a checkbox that you can select for each row in the table. To turn off this feature, right-click the column header or click its arrow and select Disable Multi-Row Selection Mode.


Materials

MRP Planning Settings for Substitute Parts

Configure Materials Requirements Planning Settings (MRMSET)

A new Use Available Inventory First checkbox has been added to the screen. When you select this checkbox, the planning order process will use available on-hand inventory first for both original and substitute parts before using the supply orders.

Set Up Company (SYPCOMP)

The application now copies new MRP planning setting values for the planning order process.


People

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

Access to the Contributions - Project Distribution subtask on the Manage Employee Earnings History screen is now based on the Direct charge employer contributions checkbox on the Configure Payroll Settings screen. The Contribution - 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 support the old EO Survey list. Costpoint adds error reports that lists 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 have the ability to 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.


Use Supplemental Tax Rate for Leave Payout Wages

Leave payout wages are considered supplemental payments but, currently, these wages are taxed as regular wages. Changes were made to payroll to calculate the taxes of leave payout timesheets using supplemental rates. If your company opts not to use the leave payout application to create leave payout timesheets, then you can now select 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.

 

Manage Timesheets (LDMTIME)

 

Compute Payroll (PRPCPR)

Field

Definition

Regular, Correcting, D-Correcting, N-Reversing, Reversing, and Salary Cap

Select this checkbox if you want to process Regular, Correcting, D-Correcting, N-Reversing, Reversing, and Salary Cap timesheets. You can only process Correcting, D-Correcting, N-Reversing, Reversing, and Salary Cap timesheets if the Check Type is Regular.

Bonus

Select this checkbox if you want to process bonus timesheets. You can only process bonus timesheets if the Check Type is Bonus.

Leave Payout

Select this checkbox if you want to process leave payout timesheets either as regular wages or supplemental wages. Leave payout will be taxed as supplemental wages if you select Bonus as the Check Type. Leave payout will be taxed as regular wages if you select Regular as the Check Type.


Projects

Updated Original Pool Base Amount and Original Rate in Retroactive Billing Worksheet

In the Indirect Rate Consolidated Retroactive Billing Worksheet, the values that display in the Original Pool Base Amount column now include burden costs instead of just the direct labor cost. In addition, the Original Rate column values now display the provisional rates entered on the Manage Cost Pools screen instead of the composite rates.

This is in agreement with how the Revised Pool Base Amount and Approved Revised Rate columns are printed on the report.


Performance Enhancement: Summarize Project Ledger

Summarize Project Ledger has been updated to process records more efficiently and reduce the screen's runtime.


Reports & Analytics

Business Intelligence

Updated Contracts and Opportunities Model with UDEFs and Assessment Fields

The new VBI_ALL_UDEF_CT view is now available to capture data in user-defined fields (UDEFs) for contracts, leads, and opportunities. Because of this change, the Contracts and Opportunities model had to be updated to accommodate the new UDEFs.

Updates were also made to the Contracts and Opportunities model to obtain the new Opportunity Assessment and Performance Assessment field values in Costpoint.

Corpay Portal Vendor Listing

The new Corpay Portal Vendor Listing report, which aims to provide key vendor information and support to users of Corpay, is now available. Any change or update made to the vendor information will automatically reflect on the report.
