# General Ledger

> View and manage a business's general ledger entries

## Overview

The General Ledger provides a GL account-specific view into accounting transactions, allowing business owner-operators and bookkeepers to:

* View transactions specific to a given GL account
* See running debits/credits and how each transaction impacts the balance for the given GL account
* Edit transactions
* Download GL data into a spreadsheet
