Library Overview

The Library is your workspace catalog of price book items: materials, labour, plant, compounds, and other reusable building blocks. Pull these lines into quotes, estimates, and job costing so pricing stays consistent.

Price book vs templates

  • Price book modes — Browse and edit Resources, Compounds (bundled rates), and related views. This is where unit costs and sell rates live.
  • Templates — Reusable document or line structures (when enabled for your workspace). Switch mode in the Library using the UI tabs or workspace settings.

Use Settings → Workspace Settings → Library if your admin needs to adjust defaults.

Typical workflow

  1. Maintain resources and compounds with up-to-date rates.
  2. When building a quote or estimate on a job, search the Library to add lines quickly.
  3. Adjust job-specific overrides only where needed.
