# Managing Balances

> Manage Account Balances from the Lerian Console — list, read, and create balances, and control sending and receiving permissions without leaving the interface.

Use the **Midaz Module** to manage the **Balances** in your Accounts. A balance tracks one asset in one account. It records the available amount and the on-hold amount.

## What you can do

* **List balances** for an account to see the available and on-hold amounts per asset.
* **Read a balance** to inspect its current state and metadata.
* **Create an additional balance** for an account under a new balance key. The balance inherits the account's asset.
* **Update a balance** to toggle whether it can send or receive funds (**Allow Sending** and **Allow Receiving**).

<Info>
  Overdraft limits are managed through the update-balance API, not the Console.

  The Console UI does not support balance history or balance deletion. This page does not cover them.
