# Working With GL Account Subcodes

A GL account subcode is an alphanumeric code that provides for a finer breakout of the journal entries than the GL account code alone.

One type of subcode is the Market GL subcode. Each Market allows for the configuration of a GL subcode.

**Example**: Assume that bill period 1 has two Markets and GL account code 1 has $1 million of revenue journalized; $400,000 for the Market whose subcode is 0001 and $600,000 for the Market whose subcode 0002.

The following journal entries would be generated:

| **Case 1 (if no subcodes are configured)** |
| --- |
| **GL Account Code** | **Bill Period** | **GL Subcode** | **Amount** |
| 1 | 1 |  | 1,000,000 |
| **Case 2 (if subcodes are configured)** |
| **GL Account Code** | **Bill Period** | **GL Subcode** | **Amount** |
| 1 | 1 | 0001 | 400,000 |
| 1 | 1 | 0002 | 600,000 |

To access GL Subcodes:

From the Application menu select **Backoffice Management > General Ledger > Accounts > Account Subcodes**.
