Lists are shortcuts.

Quick transfer lists contain items often transferred at the same time, for example, a 'job start' list could contain the items often sent to new jobs. When you add a quick transfer list to an order, the list's item number is replaced by the items in that list.
Accessory lists include items often sent with an item, for example, a reciprocating saw might be sent with an extra set of blades, some lubricating oil and a power cord. When you add an item with an accessory list to an order, its accessories are added to the order too
Maintenance part lists (repair & maintenance module required) are associated with maintenance types, for example, an 'oil change' maintenance type' part list might include 8 quarts of oil and an oil filter. Maintenance part lists are useful if you do repairs in-house and track your parts inventory.

Lists can be imported.
