Is there a way to programmatically convert an existing Opportunity to an Amendment Opportunity? I see that there is an "Amend Contract" button on the Opportunity that allows a user to do this manually. I see there is a way to create a "new" amendment using the CPQ API, but was wondering if there was a way to convert an existing one to an amendment.
Did you ever figure out how to get the Amend API create just the quote record for an existing Opportunity? We can't use the OOB Amend Contract action from the Opp since it will take the user to the QLE (we are using a custom configurator UI instead). We are using the Amend API from Account and that works well, but creates a new Opp each time. We have a use case to allow additional non-primary quotes under an amendment opp for purpose of comparative quoting but we don't want to add the duplicated $ into our forecast pipeline.
