# GL Codes

The **GL Code** is a valuable component that enhances overall accessibility in managing any marketing budget. They allow you to manage specific datasets and settings applicable to all your company budgets, enabling customization to fit your specific marketing processes. **GL Codes** consist of four essential columns: the **GL Code** itself, **Description**, **Enabled**, and **Count**. Here are some additional benefits:

- **Search**: You can enter a search term in the designated field to find matching **GL Codes**. The search results will display all entries containing the matching word or phrase.
- **Adding New Entry**: Clicking **Create New** allows you to add a new **GL Code**. This button remains deactivated until you provide a name for the new **GL Code**, allowing only one new entry at a time. The new entry will be enabled by default. Providing a name and clicking outside the field will save the new entry.

- **New Entry and Sorting**: Newly added entries will be sorted as soon as you save them.
- **Updating Existing Entry**: Editing the **GL Code** or **Description** is as simple as single-clicking on the respective field. After making any updates, click outside the field to save the changes. Upon doing so, a toast message will appear, confirming that the update was successful.
