    SOShipmentEntry docgraph = PXGraph.CreateInstance<SOShipmentEntry>();
    docgraph.Document.Current = docgraph.Document.Search<SOShipment.shipmentNbr>(ShipmentNbr);
    foreach (var action in (docgraph.action.GetState(null) as PXButtonState).Menus)
                                        {
                                            if (action.Command == "Confirm Shipment")
                                            {
                                                PXAdapter adapter2 = new PXAdapter(new DummyView(docgraph, docgraph.Document.View.BqlSelect, new List<object> { docgraph.Document.Current }));
                                                adapter2.Menu = action.Command;
                                                docgraph.action.PressButton(adapter2);

                                                TimeSpan timespan;
                                                Exception ex;
                                                while (PXLongOperation.GetStatus(docgraph.UID, out timespan, out ex) == PXLongRunStatus.InProcess)
                                                { }
                                                break;
                                            }
                                        }



internal class DummyView : PXView
        {
            List<object> _Records;
            internal DummyView(PXGraph graph, BqlCommand command, List<object> records)
                : base(graph, true, command)
            {
                _Records = records;
            }
            public override List<object> Select(object[] currents, object[] parameters, object[] searches, string[] sortcolumns, bool[] descendings, PXFilterRow[] filters, ref int startRow, int maximumRows, ref int totalRows)
            {
                return _Records;
            }
        }

We had issues with 'confirm shipment' , the above code helped to do that. It loads the shipment document from the shipment number and finds the menu of the graph for 'confirm shipment' and clicks it.

Answer 2

Best option to schedule process Confirm Shipment instead of using Automation Steps functionality.
