ActionCreateTemplateFromEstimate

Creates a template estimate 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 template isn't linked to an opportunity. Use this action to turn an estimate into a reusable template. Returns the new template estimate and the ID of the asynchronous job that copies the related records.
