In Oracle Payroll Cloud, the Owner Type for a payroll task determines who can view or manage the task and its output. When a team of payroll clerks needs to view the output of a task submitted by another user, the task should be assigned to a Group (Option A). This allows all members of the defined group (e.g., a payroll clerk team) to access the task output, ensuring collaborative visibility. Option B ("Active Users") is not a valid owner type for this purpose, as it does not specify a team. Option C ("All") would grant access to all users, which exceeds the requirement of limiting visibility to a specific team. Option D ("User") restricts ownership to a single individual, preventing team access. Configuring the task with a Group owner type aligns with Oracle's security and access control framework for payroll tasks.

In Oracle Payroll Cloud, to pay employees from one bank account (A) and third parties from another (B), the recommended approach is to create a single organization payment method with two payment sources (e.g., bank account A and B) and configure their usage in the payment method rules table (Option D). This allows you to specify that employee salary payments use account A, while third-party payments (e.g., garnishments) use account B, all within one payment method. Option A (two personal payment methods per employee) is impractical and not aligned with third-party payment management. Option B (using a formula) is unnecessary, as the rules table handles this natively. Option C (separate prepayments) complicates processing without addressing the bank account distinction. Oracle documentation endorses this organization-level configuration.
