Estimates
Estimate is an approximation of a monetary amount in the absence of a precise means of measurement. This term is used for an amount measured at fair value where there is estimation uncertainty, as well as for other amounts that require estimation. You can view the list of all Estimates under the Sales section. You can add, edit, delete, export, or import a Estimate.
At the top of the Estimates page, you'll find the New Estimate button. The New Estimates option allows you to create new Estimates. You can add Estimates by selecting the New Estimates button or clicking on the More option to import a list of Estimates using the XLS or XLSX sheet format.
