# Barn Accounts Overview

{% embed url="<https://www.loom.com/share/b9d6439fab7a47a89d868697e551f42a>" %}

## **What Is a Barn Account?**

Think of a barn account as a special entry you can set up for any trainer listed on entries in your competition. It acts as a grouping that represents all of the entries associated with that trainer.

### Creating a Single Barn Account

1. Click New Barn.
2. Give it a name, such as the trainer's farm name or group name.
3. Search for and select the trainer already listed in your horse show.

### Managing Billing on a Barn Account

Clicking into a barn account opens it just like an entry.

1. Go to the Billing tab.
2. Add billing items the same way you would on an entry.

The barn account holds the balance for these items, and from there, you can either split the fees out across the entries affiliated with that barn, or accept payment directly on the barn account, using all the same payment options available on a regular entry.

### Adding Multiple Trainers to a Barn Account

1. Click Edit on the barn account.
2. Search for and add any additional trainers you'd like included.

This lets one barn account represent entries across multiple trainers, rather than just one.

### Bulk Creating Barn Accounts

To quickly create a barn account for every trainer in your competition, use the Bulk Create button on the main screen. This creates a barn account for any trainer in the show who doesn't already have one.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.horsespot.com/product-docs/show-day-tools/barn-accounts/barn-accounts-overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
