AutoQuote
The AutoQuote method generates a quote from an opportunity. The opportunity may contain one or more products. A quote item is generated for each product in the opportunity that has the AutoQuote field flag selected. When the AutoQuote method is executed, the quote business component fields are populated with the values shown in Table 30.
