Which artifacts should you check to verify payroll postings succeeded or failed in PCC?

• A. Time-off requests
• B. Employee self-service messages
• C. Annual financial statements
• D. PCC dashboards, GL interface status, and posting logs.

Answer: (D)

Verifying payroll postings in PCC hinges on artifacts that show processing outcomes and the data reaching the General Ledger. The PCC dashboards give a real-time, at-a-glance view of posting status across batches or periods, highlighting completed, in-progress, or failed postings. The GL interface status indicates whether payroll data has been prepared and sent to the General Ledger, including any interface errors that prevented posting. The posting logs provide detailed, per-item information about each payroll element’s posting attempt—successes and failures, along with error messages for troubleshooting.

Time-off requests relate to absences, not posting outcomes. Employee self-service messages are notifications to users, not the actual posting status. Annual financial statements are end-user reports that don’t reflect the live posting process or provide error details needed to verify postings.
