**Materials** in WorkBook refer to items or assets that your company owns or has pre-purchased and you want to on-sell to clients across projects, e.g. warehouse storage space or stock image credits. 

> 📝 Material types and material lists (similar to price lists/rate cards) are setup by system administrators and can only then be selected and added to price quotes.
