Which report provides a high-level view of costing results across costing segments?

• A. Payroll Activity Report
• B. Payroll Costing Report in Summary scope
• C. OTBI Payroll Run Costing Real Time
• D. Third-Party Payment Register

Answer: (B)

In costing reporting, you choose how much detail to roll up. The Payroll Costing Report in Summary scope is designed to aggregate costs across all costing segments, giving a concise, high-level view of costing results by segment without listing each individual line item. It shows totals and comparisons across segments, which is exactly what you want when you need an overview rather than detailed per-employee data.

The other options focus on different aspects: Payroll Activity Report is about processing steps and statuses, not the costing totals; OTBI Payroll Run Costing Real Time can provide costing data in real time but tends to be more detailed and run-specific rather than a broad summary; and Third-Party Payment Register deals with external payments and isn’t about costing.
