Action Performed:

Prerequisite: AccountB must have a displayName set in Avatar > Profile > Display Name

1. Request money from accountA to accountB
2. In the DM between A:B observe that the report preview displays as: "[account B's primaryLogin] owes [amount]"
3. In the LHN preview line, observe that the report preview also displays as: "[account B's primaryLogin] owes [amount]"

Expected Result:

When a displayName has been set, the report preview message should use the displayName of the person that owes. I.e "Tom Jones owes $50.00". Only if one hasn't been set should we fall back on using the primaryLogin.

Actual Result:

The primaryLogin is displayed on the report preview message even though a displayName has been set.

Workaround:

Can the user still use Expensify without this being fixed? Have you informed them of the workaround?

Pretty sure this was intentional, and @Julesssss was looking at the handling of this.

We planned to ignore the 'jules > you' case temporarily to speed things up, but this seems like a different issues. The LHN message should be consistent, and the screenshots show us using two different formats.

Let's keep internal for now though. A combination of backend and frontend data builds this string.
