pls try not tested :
def dashboard_admin():
    query = (db.payslip.state == 'Confirmed')
    sum = db.payslip.gross.sum()
    sum_result = db(query).select(sum).first()[sum]
    return locals()
    #return dict(sum_result = sum_result) # try if return locals() not work

this should try in python console not in web2py controller
>>> query = (db.payslip.state == 'Confirmed')
>>> sum = db.payslip.gross.sum()
>>> print db(query).select(sum).first()[sum]

best regards,
stifan
