Deltek Costpoint mobile app offers access to all of the same functions/applications in Costpoint that a user would otherwise have access to through the browser – Enter/Approve Time, Voucher Approval, adding an employee, or any other domain/function within Costpoint. All security/authentication options available in Costpoint on a laptop are supported, including built-in device biometric authentication. Any extensions built for Costpoint, including UI extensions with new fields or new screens, are supported out of the box as well. The user interface, based on mobile responsive design, automatically adjusts to the size of the phone/tablet/foldable device and also provides different views of the data depending on portrait or landscape orientation. Under the hood, this application is built based on the latest Trusted Web Activity (TWA) framework offered by Google which allows this application to always be in sync with the version of Costpoint deployed by your company i.e. after your first login, this application will always follow your company’s IT upgrade policy automatically. Also, this innovative technology allows to build much smaller mobile apps resulting in fast downloads even on slower networks. This app requires Costpoint 8.1.12+ or Costpoint 8.2+
