How to build a multidimensional array from the Json decoded output?

Question

What I'm trying to achieve is to build the array that should match exactly the structure of an Json decoded version. I am stuck where I need to address indexed array within an array. It would be a great help if someone could help me cross where I'm stuck.

// Array to be built to match JSON decoded version of associative array.
$fulfillment_array['orderShipment']['orderLines']['orderLine'] = [];
 foreach ($fulfillment_records as $this_fulfillment_record) {
 // Assemble the fulfillment array for Walmart.
 $fulfillment_array['orderShipment']['orderLines']['orderLine'][] = array(
 "lineNumber" =>
 "sellerOrderId" =>
 "orderLineStatuses" => array(
 "orderLineStatus" => array (
 // Is this the right way of addressing an indexed array to match the structure of associative array below.
 array (
 "status" => "Shipped",
 "statusQuantity" => array(
 "unitOfMeasurement" => "Each",
 "amount" => 
 )
 )
 )
 )
 );

The Associative array that I am trying to build with my code above is

Array
(
 [orderShipment] => Array
 (
 [orderLines] => Array
 (
 [orderLine] => Array
 (
 [0] => Array
 (
 [lineNumber] => 1
 [sellerOrderId] => 92344
 [orderLineStatuses] => Array
 (
 [orderLineStatus] => Array
 (
 [0] => Array
 (
 [status] => Shipped
 [statusQuantity] => Array
 (
 [unitOfMeasurement] => EACH
 [amount] => 1
 )
 [trackingInfo] => Array
 (
 [shipDateTime] => 1580821866000
 [carrierName] => Array
 (
 [otherCarrier] => 
 [carrier] => UPS
 )
 [methodCode] => Standard
 [trackingNumber] => 22344
 [trackingURL] => http://walmart/tracking/ups?&type=MP&seller_id=12345&promise_date=03/02/2020&dzip=92840&tracking_numbers=92345
 )
 [returnCenterAddress] => Array
 (
 [name] => walmart
 [address1] => walmart store 2
 [address2] => 
 [city] => Huntsville
 [state] => AL
 [postalCode] => 35805
 [country] => USA
 [dayPhone] => 12344
 [emailId] => [email protected]
 )
 )
 )
 )
 )
 [1] => Array
 (
 [lineNumber] => 2
 [sellerOrderId] => 92344
 [orderLineStatuses] => Array
 (
 [orderLineStatus] => Array
 (
 [0] => Array
 (
 [status] => Shipped
 [statusQuantity] => Array
 (
 [unitOfMeasurement] => EACH
 [amount] => 1
 )
 [trackingInfo] => Array
 (
 [shipDateTime] => 1580821866000
 [carrierName] => Array
 (
 [otherCarrier] => 
 [carrier] => FedEx
 )
 [methodCode] => Express
 [trackingNumber] => 22344
 [trackingURL] => http://walmart/tracking/fedEx?&type=MP&seller_id=12345&promise_date=03/02/2020&dzip=92840&tracking_numbers=92344
 )
 [returnCenterAddress] => Array
 (
 [name] => walmart
 [address1] => walmart store 2
 [address2] => 
 [city] => Huntsville
 [state] => AL
 [postalCode] => 35805
 [country] => USA
 [dayPhone] => 12344
 [emailId] => [email protected]
 )
 )
