Table Specific Information
Estimates may be inserted, queried, or updated via the Estimates or EstimateLineItems tables. Estimates may be deleted by using the Estimates table.

All filterable columns support the following operators:
- =

The driver processes other filters client-side within the driver.
Insert
To add an Estimate, specify a Customer and at least one Line Item. The LineAggregate column may be used to specify an XML aggregate of Line Item data. Each _ denotes hierarchy. Use <Line> at the base level. The contents of LineAggregate will be sent to the API as is. All values for each field in the aggregate should adhere to the API's specifications (e.g. for dates in format yyyy-MM-dd, for date times in format yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:sszzz). The columns that may be used in the aggregates begin with the prefix 'Line_' to indicate they are part of the line item. Use the Line_ column along with the DocNumber to indicate which lines go with which Estimates. For example:
INSERT INTO Estimates (CustomerRef, LineAggregate) VALUES ('4', ' <Line><Amount>0.01</Amount><DetailType>SalesItemLineDetail</DetailType><SalesItemLineDetail><ItemRef>2</ItemRef></SalesItemLineDetail></Line> <Line><Amount>0.02</Amount><DetailType>SalesItemLineDetail</DetailType><SalesItemLineDetail><ItemRef>3</ItemRef></SalesItemLineDetail></Line> ')
