# Tally of Records Selected

> Track how many records you have selected from any data grid using the built-in checkbox tally feature.

## Tracking Selected Records

You can easily see how many records you have selected from any data grid within the system.

### How It Works

In any data grid view, you will notice **checkboxes** to the left of each record, plus a single checkbox in the top-left corner that selects every record in the current view.

As you check one or more boxes, the system automatically updates the **total record count** displayed at the bottom of the page. This total reflects the number of records you have currently selected.

<Tip>The checkbox column position may vary depending on your configuration. You can adjust its placement using the **Column Manager**.</Tip>
