Issue with the click script

Hi!
First of all I'm sorry if this isn't the right place to post this question or it is already answered, but I didn't find it anywhere.
I'm having a problem with the following script:
var $tries = 0;
_setValue(_textbox(0), "upadmin");
_setValue(_password(0), "upadmin");
_click(_cell("Login"));
_setSelected(_select(0), ["NSOM - Service (SOM)"]);
_click(_cell("Select"));
_click(_cell("Task"));
_wait(1000);
_click(_cell("Details"));
_wait(1000);
_click(_cell("Details"));
_wait(1000);
_click(_div(0,_under(_cell("Details"))));
_wait(1000);
_click(_cell("Actions"));
_highlight(_cell("Proceed"));
_wait(4000);
_highlight(_cell("Reject"));
_wait(4000);
_click(_cell("Reject"));
What happens here is that the button that is clicked is "Proceed" and not "Reject". When I try to get other alternative for the id in the Sahi Controller Record the result is the same. Sahi recognizes 2 different buttons but clicks in the same every time at this point, even if I click through Sahi Controller. I tried to highlight the different buttons and it works, they are highlighted separately, so I can't figure out what the problem can be.

When elements are not uniquely identifiable by themselves, we should try to identify them in relation to either some element near them or by the element in which they are contained.
ie: _near() API, _in() API

Thanks for the help, but it didn't work.
The reject id is unique in all document nevertheless I tried all sorts of things like
_click(_cell("Reject"));
_click(_cell(0,_near(_cell("Reject"))));
_click(_div(0,_near(_cell("Reject"))));
And all the alternatives with the same combinations, still have the same problem the other button in the menu is clicked instead of the reject one.
I noticed something that might be important, both "Proceed" button and "Reject" button share one of the alternatives being _table("menuTable") present in the alternative list of both buttons.
Any suggestion?
Cheers
