# Creating Materials

The material allows you to define the composition of the item, especially apparel items. By doing so, you can classify the items and enhance customer understanding of product specifics.

Creating a material involves defining the name of the item material. Once the material is created, you can define the material in the item details.

{% hint style="info" %}
To create a material, go to *Menu > Admin > Material*
{% endhint %}

In the Material Details, enter the "Name" of the material and click "Save" to create the material.

## 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://docs.xorosoft.com/xoroerp-1/admin/material/creating-materials.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.
