Hot Fix Installation Information



This section contains instructions for installing the Deltek GCS Premier Version 5.0 Service Pack (SP) 9 Hot Fix (HF) 30 upgrade.

Important Installation Notes

Deltek GCS Premier® 5.0 SP9 HF30 is a cumulative hot fix. Therefore, it includes all previously resolved software issues from Hot Fix 1 through Hot Fix 30 for SP9. GCS Premier 5.0 SP9 or higher must be installed in order to apply this hot fix.

This hot fix must first be installed at the file server itself, then subsequently on each workstation.

The release of GCS Premier 5.0 SP9 HFs 7 – 30 includes updates to the Contribution Codes in GCS Premier, which require your data files to convert to a new format. During the HF30 installation, all data directories identified in your DTShared.ini file automatically convert to the new format if they had not previously been converted.

Be sure to follow the post-installation steps detailed below.

Upgrade Server Installation

1. Begin the upgrade installation of GCS Premier Version 5.0 SP9 HF30 with the server installation. After you download DeltekGCSPremier50SP9HF30.exe from the distribution site, double-click the file to begin the installation.

The installation of Hot Fix 30 for Deltek GCS Premier Version 5.0 SP9 requires a reboot of the file server upon completion.

2. On the InstallShield Wizard page, click Next to extract the files and begin the installation.

3. On the Welcome page of the wizard, click Next to display the License Agreement page.

4. If you agree with the License Agreement stated, select I accept the terms of the license agreement, and then click Next. If you do not accept the terms of the license agreement, the Next button will not become enabled and you will not be allowed to proceed with the installation.

Installation of the software indicates acceptance of these terms unless there is a separate written license agreement for the software you are now installing with different or additional terms. By accepting the agreement, you represent that you are authorized to accept these terms on behalf of the licensee, if applicable.

5. On the Choose Destination Location page, browse to the location where your GCS Premier Parent folder is currently installed, or click Next to accept the default folder if it is accurately displayed.

6. On the Browse for DTSite.ini page, the correct location of the DTSite.ini file should be displayed. If the correct path does not auto-populate, browse to the \SiteData folder, located underneath the GCS Premier Parent folder on the server. Click Next to continue.



7. The Start Copying Files page lists the previous options that were selected as well as any new folders that are created as part of the installation. Click Next to begin the GCS Premier server installation.

The Setup is updating files icon and the Setup Status screen appear while a series of processes are run. When the server installation has completed, the Update Complete screen displays.

8. Select Yes, I want to restart my computer now as required by the installer. Click Finish to exit the installation.

For full GCS Premier functionality, you must reboot the server.

9. If you select No, I will restart my computer later, a message displays but then the installation completes and allows you to exit.

Upgrade Client Installation

To perform the client installation, grant users local Administrator privileges for their workstations. Then at each workstation, log in as the user who will be running GCS Premier on that workstation and perform the installation. Additionally, if multiple profiles share the workstation and will be running GCS Premier, grant each profile local Administrator privileges on the workstation, and run the client installation once for each profile.

If the user does not currently have local Administrator privileges on their own workstation, grant them local Administrator privileges temporarily and manually perform the installation. Then set their privileges back to what they previously were.

1. To begin the upgrade installation, double-click the GCS Premier icon on the desktop. The Network Installation Manager appears with the message “An updated version of Deltek GCS Premier has been detected on the server. Do you want to install?” Click Yes to continue.

2. An error report message appears. Click Close to close the message and begin the installation.

3. On the Welcome page of the wizard, click Next to display the License Agreement page.

4. If you agree with the License Agreement stated, select I accept the terms of the license agreement, and then click Next. If you do not accept the terms of the license agreement, the Next button will not become enabled and you will not be allowed to proceed with the installation.

Installation of the software indicates acceptance of these terms unless there is a separate written license agreement for the software you are now installing with different or additional terms. By accepting the agreement, you represent that you are authorized to accept these terms on behalf of the licensee, if applicable.

5. On the Choose Destination Location page, accept the default location that auto-populates, and then click Next to continue.

6. On the Browse for DTSite.ini page, the correct location of the DTSite.ini file should be displayed. If this path does not auto-populate, browse to the \SiteData folder, located underneath the GCS Premier Parent folder on the server. Click Next to continue.



7. The Start Copying Files page lists the previous options that were selected as well as any new folders that are created as part of the installation. Click Next to begin.

The Setup is updating files icon and the Setup Status screen appear while a series of processes run. When the client installation has completed, the Update Complete screen displays.

8. Select Yes, I want to restart my computer now as required by the installer. Click Finish to exit the installation.

For full GCS Premier functionality, you must reboot the workstation.

9. If you select No, I will restart my computer later, a message displays but then the installation completes and allows you to exit.

Post-Installation

You must complete the following instructions after installing GCS Premier.

1. Check each workstation to ensure that the GCS PDF Driver was installed. To do so, click Start » Control Panel » Printers and Other Hardware » View installed printers or fax printers, and see if the GCS PDF Driver is listed there.

The driver allows the user to Print/Print Preview from within GCS Premier in PDF format. You cannot print directly to the GCS PDF Driver from within GCS Premier, and it will not work with any other application.

If the GCS PDF Driver printer does not display after the Programs Installation is complete, the program was most likely not installed by users with local Administrator privileges on their own workstations. If they do not currently have local Administrator privileges on their own workstations, grant them local Administrator privileges temporarily and manually perform the installation. Then set their privileges back to whatever they were prior to temporarily changing them.

2. Within GCS Premier, click System Administration » File Utilities » File Utilities » Set Up Data Files to display the Set Up Data Files screen. Click the down arrow in the Files box, and choose <All>. Click Set Up, and let it run through all of the files.

This step must be performed in every data directory listed in your Data Directory drop-

down list on the login screen.

3. This step updates your Payroll Tax Information through September 2015. The Tax Table Update screen only needs to be run once and in the current data directory only. This program merges Deltek’s most current federal and state tax information into your existing federal and state tax files.

Within GCS Premier, click Payroll and Human Resources » Utilities » Tax Table Update to display the Tax Table Update screen.

To determine if you should select the Change taxability codes check box or not:

Some states have a taxability status which may depend on the structure of your company’s deductions. If you have changed the taxability codes for withholding and SUTA on the State Tax Information screen from our defaults and do not want this program to change them back, then do not select this check box. If you



want the program to set the taxability codes to the system defaults, select the Change taxability codes check box.

Click the Process button.

4. This step is for Travel users only. If you do not use this product, skip this step. Within GCS Premier, click Travel » Setup Files » Update Per Diem File to display the Update Per Diem File screen. Click the Process button, and then click OK when you receive the “Processing Completed” message.

5. This step enables Hosted Help for all users. This step only needs to be performed if Hosted Help has not yet been previously enabled. There is an option for Hosted Help that allows users to launch the GCS Premier Help system through an online Deltek-hosted server, as opposed to launching it locally from the \Programs\WebHelp folder on their workstation.

Enabling Hosted Help gives users access to real-time Help system updates as they are made, without having to wait for the changes to be deployed to their local Help system folder when the next service pack or hot fix is installed.

Computers that have no internet connectivity will not be able to use Hosted Help. If

any of the computers in your company do not have internet connectivity, the Help

system will not work for those users if you choose to enable this feature. Once the

feature is enabled, it is enabled for all users in your company. If you have any users

running GCS Premier on a computer that does not have internet connectivity, do not

enable Hosted Help for your company.

The default setting is that Hosted Help is not selected. To enable this feature, you must follow a few steps.

To enable Hosted Help, complete the following steps:

a. Have all users log out of GCS Premier.

b. Have the user with GCS Premier System Administration access log on to GCS Premier and navigate to the System Administration » Configuration » System Configuration » Online Help Settings tab.

c. Select the Connect to Hosted Help via Customer Care Site check box, and enter any valid Deltek Customer Care Connect credentials into the User Name and Password fields.

Make sure to use your Deltek Customer Care Connect (support.deltek.com) web site

login credentials on this screen, and not your GCS Premier user ID and password. It is

suggested that you test your login credentials prior to entering them here to ensure

they are indeed valid. To test them, go to support.deltek.com and attempt to log in

with the same credentials you intend to enter on this screen.

d. Save your changes and close the System Configuration screen.

When the users log in to GCS Premier, they will now be accessing the Hosted Help system. To disable this feature at any point in the future, clear the Connect to Hosted Help via Customer Care Site check box on the Online Help Settings tab of the System Configuration screen.

Platform Support Upgrade

Enhancements

State Updates

UDD and Impromptu Catalog Updates

Platform Support Upgrade

GCS Premier now supports Windows Server 2012 R2.

Enhancements

VETS-4212 Reporting

Protected Veteran Information

GCS Premier now has the ability to identify employees who are protected veterans but declined to self-identify which specific veteran categories they may belong (Active Duty Wartime or Campaign Badge Veteran, Armed Forces Service Medal Veteran, Disabled Veteran, or Recently Separated Veteran). These employees will be counted under Protected Veterans in VETS-4212 reporting.

For more details and a sample invitation to self-identify, see http://www.dol.gov/ofccp/regs/compliance/vevraa/vevraa_rule_qa_508c.pdf.

This update affects the following applications:

Employee Master File — A new option, X - Protected Veteran (Declined to Self-Identify), has been added to the Military Status drop-down list. Select this option if the employee is a protected veteran but declined to specify to which veteran categories he/she may belong.

Employee Master File Mass Update — When you select Military Status from the Change Field drop-down list, the new option Protected Veteran (Declined to Self-Identify) is now available in the New Data and Old Data drop-down lists.

Employee Master File Preprocessor — The application now includes the new military status code X in the list of valid values for Military Status.

VETS-4212 Report — The report now includes the new military status code X in the list of protected veterans.

Other Changes

The VETS-100(A) Report screen is no longer available on the GCS Premier main menu and Batch Manager. Effective October 27, 2014, the VETS-100(A) Report will be replaced by the VETS-4212 Report, which will be implemented in the 2015 filing cycle.

http://www.dol.gov/ofccp/regs/compliance/vevraa/vevraa_rule_qa_508c.pdf



Affordable Care Act

In 2014, Section 6056 of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) was released, which requires employers with 50 or more full-time and equivalent employees to describe health coverage they offer by filing Form 1094–C (a transmittal) and Form 1095–C (an employee statement). Electronic filing is required for filing more than 250 returns, both Forms 1094-C and 1095-C, during the calendar year.

To support the updated reporting, GCS Premier menu now includes three new applications, and seven other applications have been updated.

New applications

The following new applications are included in this release:

Create ACA Info — Use this screen to generate the ACA file containing the current year information for ACA reporting.



You can also use the Set Up Data Files screen to generate the ACAFILE.dat/idx file.

Edit ACA Info — Use this application to edit the information in the ACA file after the ACA file is created on the Create ACA Info screen. You can also use the Covered Individuals (Self-Insured) sub-screen on this application to enter ACA coverage information for the employee and his/her dependents if the employer offers self-insured coverage.

Print Employee ACA Report — Use this screen to print the ACA report after you ran the Create ACA Info application. This allows you to check the information generated in the ACA file.

The procedure in preparing and printing the ACA report is similar to the W-2 file process. You create the ACA file on the Create ACA Info screen. From the Print Employee ACA Report screen, you print the ACA report and review. You can do any editing on the Edit ACA Info screen, and then run the Print ACA Form 1095C application to print the ACA file. Lastly, you generate the magnetic media file on the Create ACA Magnetic Media File screen.

The Print ACA Form 1095C and Create ACA Magnetic Media File applications will be rolled out in the next GCS Premier release, when the 1095C form and the XML specifications from the Internal Revenue Service are available.

The start of filing returns for data collected in 2015 is January 1, 2016. However, Deltek recommends that you create and test the ACA report anytime and not wait for 2016.

Similar to the W-2 file, the ACA file can be recreated as needed. The new file overwrites the previous file for the same reporting year. Therefore, if you have been creating and posting payrolls with ACA information, you can test the ACA file process once you have installed Hot Fix 30.

Contact GCS Premier Customer Care for any feedback on testing. This case will not be charged against your case balance.

Updated Applications

These are the updates to existing applications:

Payroll Control File — On the Printing & Other Info tab, the Company group box is now named as ACA Contact & Pay Stubs. The Phone field’s new name is Phone Number, and you can now enter your ACA contact’s phone number (for ACA reports) or your company’s phone number (for pay stubs) in this field.

Employee Dependents & Beneficiaries — This application now allows you to enter the effectivity date of the employee’s ACA self-insured health plan coverage in the new Start Date and Stop Date columns.

Set Up Data Files — ACA File is now available from the Files drop-down list.

File Transfer Process — ACA File is now available from the Files drop-down list.

Fix Data Files — ACA File is now available from the Files drop-down list.

Current Users & File Locks — This application now includes the new ACA screens with file lock conditions similar to those of the W-2 applications.

Email Data Files — You can now enter the following new applications in the Application field on this screen:

Create ACA Info



Edit ACA Info

Print Employee ACA Report

Batch Job Setup — Create ACA Info and Print Employee ACA Report are now included in the list of reports you can select on the Batch Reports tab.

Process View and History — This screen now displays the Create ACA Info and Print Employee ACA Report applications in the second table window if these are included in a batch job.

DataPort — Edit ACA Info is now available under the Payroll * Human Resources module on the Files and Fields tab of this screen. You can now include the Edit ACA Info file and its corresponding fields in defining a DataPort query.

New Payroll Deduction Method

GCS Premier now includes a new deduction method that calculates the amount to be withheld or accrued from a deduction or contribution based on actual hours worked, excluding leave hours. This is to comply with the requirement of Washington and Oregon states that imposes a workers’ compensation employment tax on both employers and employees based on hours worked.

This enhancement affects the following applications:

Deduction Codes File — You can now select Dollars per Hour worked (excludes Leave) from the Method drop-down list in both the Deductions and Contributions group boxes. Use this method when the deduction/contribution is based on total hours worked for the period charged to labor account types only, excluding leave hours with account type I (Indirect Hours). The deduction/contribution amount is calculated by adding all the hours for the payroll period multiplied by the deduction/contribution amount or rate.

Employee Master File — Method H [Dollars per Hour worked (excludes Leave)] is now available from the Method drop-down list in both the Payroll Deductions and Employer Contributions menus.

Create Payroll from Timesheets — This application now includes the new method in the calculations for deductions and contributions. For this method, it only calculates the total timesheet hours charged to any of the following account types:

C (Contract)

P (Bid & Proposal)

R (IR & D)

W (Work In Process)

L (Indirect Labor (Exclude B&P, IR&D))

Leave hours in timesheets where the account type used is I are excluded from the computations.

Amyuni PDF Converter

This release of GCS Premier includes Amyuni PDF Converter 5.0 driver for GCS PDF Printer.

The amounts of unemployment tax paid on an employee’s unemployment-taxable wages above $9,000 for the first and second quarters of 2015 are not reimbursable because the wage base for all employers for those quarters is still $9,500.

New York

The income withholding tables are updated for New York City, effective June 1, 2015, after a legislative change was applied to those with taxable personal income greater than $500,000. The base tax for Married filers with taxable income exceeding $500,000 is now $20,828.46, while that for Single filers is $20,834.16.

For payrolls June 1 or later, New York City employers who use Method II, Exact Calculation Method, are required to use the revised exact calculation methods in NYS-50-T-NYC because of changes in line 7, Column 5 amounts in each of the tables.

All Tables.cat All Tables_OLD.cat \Cognos\cer5\Deltek\IMP74GCSP50\Catalog

3. Download the updated .UDD and .CAT files from the Deltek Software Manager site.

4. Unzip the file and copy the .UDD and .CAT files to the following directories where they are installed:

UDD: \Cognos\cer5\Deltek\IMP74GCSP50\UDD

Premier Billing

When using Premier Billing with Microsoft Office 2010, an error can occur when saving from the File ribbon. To avoid this, when you save a template, press (CTRL+S), or click the Save icon instead.

If you click Save on the File ribbon, the active Premier Billing application may close and erroneously save the template into the My Documents folder instead of the default Premier Billing Templates folder designated in DTShared.ini.

No Calendar Pop-up When Using RDWeb (Remote Desktop)

When populating date fields in GCS Premier, you can use the pop-up calendar to select the date. Users accessing GCS Premier via Microsoft’s RDWeb (Remote Desktop) service must manually key in the date.

Amyuni Not Installed When Using Windows Server 2008 R2 32-bit System

When using GCS Premier with Windows Server 2008 R2 32-bit, the generation of PDF reports

drivers and the Print Spooler option is set to Manual. To avoid this, prior to GCS installation, set

the Print Spooler to Automatic via Control Panel » Administrative Tools » Services » Print

Spooler, or you can also manually install Amyuni.
