In summary, the main steps are as follows;
1- on primary database: create a job to backup transaction logs regularly
2- on primary database: share the transaction log backup directory.
3- backup and restore the database to be log shipped from prımary to secondary database
4- on secondary database: create the following structure (tables and procedures)
5- on secondary database: create the copy and load jobs via the created structure
6- on secondary database: monitor the process
There are 3 stored procedures and 3 tables to create;

After creating the infrastructure you can create the transaction log backup copy and load jobs by running the following script. After running the script logshipping started via the created jobs and the process can be monitored by creating and using the following stored procedure.
exec msdb..sp_create_backup_movement_plan @name = "DB01_logshipping", @source_dir = "\\PRMDB01\trnlogs", @dest_dir = "D:\logshipping\", @sub_dir = "DB01", @load_job_freq =30, @copy_job_freq = 30 exec msdb..sp_add_db_to_backup_movement_plan @plan_name = "DB01_logshipping", @source_db = "DB01", @dest_db = "DB01", @load_delay = 10, @load_all = 1, @source_server = 'PRMYDB01', @retention_period = 30 --in days
Here is the stored procedure to monitor the log shipping process.
