ActionCreateEstimateFromEstimate
Creates an estimate for an opportunity by copying an existing estimate or template. Role requests, tasks, and line sets are always copied. Skills, estimated expenses, vendor line items, and schedules are copied unless excluded with the include options. The new estimate derives its account, currency, region, practice, and group from the opportunity. Use this action to start an estimate from a template or to duplicate an estimate onto an opportunity. Returns the new estimate and the ID of the asynchronous job that copies the related records.
