Net::FreshBooks::API::Estimate(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::FreshBooks::API::Estimate(3)

Net::FreshBooks::API::Estimate - FreshBooks Estimate access

version 0.24

Estimate objects are created via Net::FreshBooks::API

    my $fb = Net::FreshBooks::API->new( {...} );
    my $estimate = $fb->estimate->create({ client_id => $id });

    # add as many items as you need
    $estimate->add_line(
        {   name      => "Estimate Test line 1",
            unit_cost => 1,
            quantity  => 1,
        }
        ),
        "Add a line to the estimate";

    ok $estimate->add_line(
        {   name      => "Estimate Test line 2",
            unit_cost => 2,
            quantity  => 2,
        }
        ),
        "Add second line to the estimate";

    print $estimate->status;    # draft

    # in order to make the URL viewable, you'll need to mark it as "sent"
    $estimate->status( 'sent' );
    $estimate->update;

    # viewable URL is:
    print $estimate->links->client_view;

Create an estimate in the FreshBooks system.

    my $estimate = $fb->estimate->create({...});

    my $estimate = $fb->estimate->get({ estimate_id => $estimate_id });
    $estimate->delete;

    my $estimate = $fb->estimate->get({ estimate_id => $estimate_id });

    $estimate->organization('Perl Foundation');
    $estimate->update;

    # or more quickly
    $estimate->update( { organization => 'Perl Foundation', } );

Create a new Net::FreshBooks::API::InvoiceLine object and add it to the end of the list of lines

    my $bool = $estimate->add_line(
        {   name         => "Yard Work",          # (Optional)
            description  => "Mowed the lawn.",    # (Optional)
            unit_cost    => 10,                   # Default is 0
            quantity     => 4,                    # Default is 0
            tax1_name    => "GST",                # (Optional)
            tax2_name    => "PST",                # (Optional)
            tax1_percent => 8,                    # (Optional)
            tax2_percent => 6,                    # (Optional)
        }
    );
Returns a Net::FreshBooks::API::Links object, which returns FreshBooks URLs.

    print "send this url to client: " . $estimate->links->client_view;

Returns a Net::FreshBooks::API::Iterator object.

    # list unpaid estimates
    my $estimates = $fb->estimate->list({ status => 'unpaid' });

    while ( my $estimate = $estimates->next ) {
        print $estimate->estimate_id, "\n";
    }

Returns an ARRAYREF of Net::FreshBooks::API::InvoiceLine objects

    foreach my $line ( @{ $estimate->lines } ) {
        print $line->amount, "\n";
    }

Send the estimate by email.

  my $result = $estimate->send_by_email();

This class gives you access to FreshBooks invoice information. Net::FreshBooks::API will construct this object for you.
