Version 9.0.0.5

•CORRECTION - When opening a company in AccuBuild where the AccuBuild Document Management System (ADMS) was not installed, a message would be displayed indicating that the new invoice routing feature could not be done without ADMS. The new invoice approval process requires the ADMS Module to be installed in order to route invoices for approval to project managers etc. This message will no longer be displayed.

•CORRECTION - GLREP01A.651 & GLREP01E.651 - GL Detail Activity Reports by Account were corrected for the new GLJob Field

•CONVERTED TO MAR - Due to the new Medicare Additional Tax that is in effect 1/1/2013, the following reports have been updated and/or converted from the traditional format to MAR in order to reflect the new fields for the 'subject wages' and new tax. The new tax amount will be stored in the TaxAmount5 field in the prchecks.adt table.

•In addition to the new tax fields, the Subject to Earnings report also includes the employer burden amounts for FICA which is not displayed in the traditional version of this report.

•PRREP14A.644 - Subject to Earnings Report - Summary with Drill Down - Trans Date

•PRREP14A.645 - Subject to Earnings Report - Summary with Drill Down - W/E Date

•ENHANCEMENT - Performance Improvement on Folder Templates - The Folder Templates for new master records on clients, jobs etc. were causing a long wait period after the Save Button was clicked due to the number of folders that had to be added and secured with each new master record. The code for creating these folders has been enhanced and now performs over 17 times faster. For example, a folder template of 32 folders was normally taking over 2 minutes to create on a new master record (client, job etc.) and this process now takes around 7 seconds on average. NOTE – The code to add a folder template to an existing master record folder was also changed to speed that process up with the same speed improvements.

•ENHANCEMENT - The Job List (Update Jobs menu) screen was loading slow when there were a lot of user defined folders and/or folder templates (ADMS) associated with each job due to preliminary ADMS folder security code that was being executed each time the job list was loaded. This process has been moved and will only be executed if the user clicks on the Documents Tab of the job list. The job list should now load faster no matter how many ADMS folders exist.

•Federal Tax Withholding Tables as of December 27, 2012 - Although the IRS says it intends "to issue guidance by the end of the year on appropriate withholding for 2013", some AccuBuild customers will have to process their first 2013 payroll before that guidance is issued. Therefore, the 2012 withholding tables will remain in place with this release and will be used for the first few payrolls of 2013. A new software update will be issued once an official guidance from the IRS is released.

•The following State withholding tax tables for 2013 have been updated in this release:

•Georgia – updated for exemptions and allowances for 2013 – tables are the same.

•Hawaii – Updated for new SDI Cutoff Limit (Weekly) for 2013 - $921.78 weekly – Max Tax $4.61

•The Electric File Specification has been updated to comply with required changes for the 2012 W-2 Electronic Format - EFW2.

•ENHANCEMENT - The Tax Rates Tab on the Payroll Properties screen has been updated to handle the new Additional Medicare Tax for payroll starting in 2013. This new tax is effective January 1, 2013 on all wages over $200,000 paid to any one employee. This additional medicare tax is not matched by the employer.

•	Additional Medicare - Tax Rate (Employee) – This field hold the Additional Medicare Tax rate entered as a percentage.

•	Additional Medicare - Exempt Wage Cutoff – This field contains the amount of Medicare Wages that must be reached BEFORE the Additional Tax is required.

•	Additional Medicare – Tax Rate (Employer) – This field is a READ ONLY Field and contains the Additional Medicare Tax rate for the Employer. Currently for 2013, there is NO required tax for the employer tax burden so a rate of zero is shown.

•ENHANCEMENT - PRECHECTAX.RPT - The traditional version of the pre-check tax register report updated with new tax and subject wage fields to accommodate the new Medicare Additional Tax.

•ENHANCEMENT - The Handwritten Payroll Check screen has been updated to accommodate the new Medicare Additional Tax.

•FICA – TOTAL Medicare – This needs to be the Total of ALL Medicare taxes being withheld on the employee's check including the Normal Medicare and the Additional Medicare added together.

•FICA – Additional Medicare – This is the amount of Additional Medicare that is included in the above TOTAL Medicare amount. This amount must be entered separately even though it is included in the Total Medicare Amount so that it can be excluded from the employer burden tax amount during the posting process. Additional Medicare is NOT matched by the employer like Normal Medicare taxes are.

•Normal Medicare (Tax Amount and Subject To Wages) – These fields represent the Normal Medicare Amount ONLY and does NOT include any of the Additional Medicare Tax.

•Additional Medicare (Tax Amount and Subject To Wages) – These fields represent the Additional Medicare Amount ONLY and does NOT include any of the Normal Medicare Tax.

•CORRECTION - When the Employee List icon was pressed on the Payroll Time Card Screen, an exception error was displayed indicating that an operation could not be performed on a closed dataset called "PRTCBAT" and at that point the AccuBuild Program had to be closed via the task manager "End Task" option. This problem has been corrected in this release.

•UPDATED - The name of the FUTA tax report has been changed from '2011 FUTA Tax Liability Report' to 'FUTA Tax Liability Report' so there won't be any confusion on whether this report can be printed for non-2011 wages. This report was introduced in 2011 when the FUTA tax rate changed mid year from .8% to .6%. The 'actual tax amount' field will calculate at a rate of .8% when the report date range is set prior to July 1, 2011. If the date range is July 1, 2011 or later, the 'actual tax amount' field will calculate at .6%. Be sure to read the documentation on this report for an explanation of the over/under accrued field.
