ActionMoveEstimateDatesAsync
Shifts the dates of one or more estimates, and their date-dependent child records, by a fixed number of days in a background job. A positive offset moves dates later and a negative offset moves dates earlier. The estimates are locked and the shift may not be complete when the action returns, so callers must acknowledge this and must not depend on completion or touch the same estimates afterward. Use this action instead of Move Estimate Dates for large estimates that would otherwise time out. Returns a single Apex job ID for the whole batch to track completion.

EstimateIds | List<Id> | Estimate Ids | A list of IDs of the estimates to update the dates of. | Yes |
DateOffset | Integer | Date Offset | The number of days to offset the estimates by. | Yes |
Acknowledgement | Boolean | Async Action Caution Acknowledged | If set to true, you confirm that you understand that this asynchronous action may not have completed before the next step in the flow is executed. Subsequent actions therefore should not depend on the completion of the Move Estimate Dates Asynchronously action. They must also not affect the same estimate as the action because the estimate will be locked while the action is in progress. | Yes |
