I use to have the ability to "duplicate" an existing estimate. I don't find that option anymore. Is duplicating an estimate still possible?

Thank you for bringing this up to the community, Locktronixinc.

Yes, you're right. It's possible to create a duplicate of your estimate to have a copy without having to manually enter all the details again.

Here's how:

1. Go to the Sales page and select All Sales or Invoices. 

2. Find the invoice or estimate you want to copy. 

3. From the Action column, select Duplicate from the dropdown menu. 

4. Edit the invoice or estimate as needed, then select Save.

You can create recurring transactions in its place if the customer requests the same invoice on a regular basis. Alternatively, you can create the same invoice for several customers.

I only have the "Duplicate" option on the Invoice pull down tabs.  There is not a "Duplicate" option on the Estimate pull down tab.

This is an unfortunate NEW change.  

ONLY in "Invoice" pull down tab...

This absolutely suck, now i have to create every estimate from scratch? Why would they do this?

You can make a duplicate of an Estimate.

Find the Estimate, and then in the "Action" column to the right you can click the dropdown. 

You will see "Duplicate" there.
