Building a Custom Event to trigger when a Shipment's status changes to 'Closed,' the field for the status/state doesn't appear under any obviously-named 'Status' or 'State' attribute when browsing the available Logical Units for Shipment.

Answer

Look for ROWSTATE on the SHIPMENT_TAB table — that's the actual underlying field tracking a Shipment's status, rather than a differently and more obviously named 'Status'-style attribute. As a general troubleshooting habit, when a Logical Unit's status field isn't showing up under an obviously named attribute in the event-builder's field list, checking that LU's actual base table for a ROWSTATE column is a good first thing to try.
