Estimate

Type: Object

A commercial estimate used to price proposed print work before it becomes a confirmed order. It aggregates itemized costs (materials, press time, finishing, shipping, discounts, taxes), supports currency/exchange-rate handling, and tracks a review lifecycle from draft to sent, then approved or rejected. Estimates can be grouped under a Quote and, once accepted, can be converted into production Jobs using stored product templates and the customer's selections. This is the core MIS artifact for fast, accurate pricing that cleanly hands off into MES execution when approved.
