# Accept a freight quote and roll its amount into shipping_total

> Marks one `freight_quotes` row as accepted (`accepted_at = now()`,
`accepted_by_id = <api key user>`) and recomputes the parent order's
`shipping_total` to include this quote's `amount`. Only one quote per order
may be accepted at a time; the canonical helper enforces this invariant
(Rule 23 SSOT for `freight_quotes.accepted_at`). Returns 404
`quote_not_found` when the quote is missing or belongs to a different
entity. Idempotent on `Idempotency-Key`. Requires the `orders:write` scope.

  title: Arcus ERP Public API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >
    Arcus ERP public REST API. Designed for external integrations and data
    migration.


    **Authentication.** Bearer token (API key) via the `Authorization` header.

    Format: `Authorization: Bearer ark_live_ent_<code>_<random>` (or
    `ark_test_*` for sandbox).

    API keys are issued per-entity in **Settings > Developers > API Keys**.


    **Entity scoping.** The entity is encoded in the API key prefix; routes are
    flat

    (e.g. `/v1/accounts`, `/v1/orders`, `/v1/products`). A small set of platform
    endpoints

    (migration, reconciliation, events, webhook endpoints, API keys) use the

    `/v1/entities/{entity_id}/...` form -- those are noted in their tags.


    **Key capabilities.**
      - Related-resource hydration via `?expand[]=` (see `x-arcus-expand` on each resource).
      - Cursor-based pagination (`starting_after` / `ending_before` / `limit`).
      - Idempotency via the `Idempotency-Key` header.
      - Webhook events for asynchronous notification.
      - Conditional requests / ETag for cache validation.

        A carrier rate-quote attached to a freight order. Created either
