Do materials and tools reappear in my catalog when a job ends?

Short answer: tools, yes, automatically. Materials, no; you need to transfer them back manually. Here's exactly how each one works.

Materials don't return automatically. Go to the closed job → Materials tab and check if any items still show there.

If they do, you need to manually select them and transfer them to a stock location.

Here's a quick comparison:
