Explanation of Change

When a per diem rate is deleted from a workspace, two issues occur:

  1. The "Rate not valid for this workspace" error banner does not appear when viewing the expense
  2. Duplicating the expense shows an "unexpected error" instead of a proper message

Root cause: Unlike deletePolicyDistanceRates which optimistically adds CUSTOM_UNIT_OUT_OF_POLICY violations to affected transactions when a distance rate is deleted, deleteWorkspacePerDiemRates only updates the policy custom unit and never touches transaction violations. Additionally, MoneyRequestView.tsx has a fallback check (isDistanceRequest && !rate) for distance requests but no equivalent for per diem requests.

This PR makes two fixes:

  1. Primary fix (PerDiem.ts): Updates deleteWorkspacePerDiemRates to accept transactionIDsAffected and transactionViolations parameters and optimistically add CUSTOM_UNIT_OUT_OF_POLICY violations to affected transactions — mirroring the existing pattern in deletePolicyDistanceRates. The workspace per diem pages (WorkspacePerDiemPage.tsx and WorkspacePerDiemDetailsPage.tsx) are updated with transaction/violation selectors to find and pass affected transactions, following the same pattern as the distance rate pages.

  2. Secondary fix (MoneyRequestView.tsx): Adds a per diem fallback to the isCustomUnitOutOfPolicy check that directly validates the rate still exists in the policy via getPerDiemRateCustomUnitRate, similar to the existing distance request fallback. This provides a safety net even if the violation is missing for any reason.

Fixed Issues

PROPOSAL: #82584 (comment)

Tests

  1. Have a workspace with per diem rates imported
  2. Create a per diem expense (e.g., Afghanistan, qty 6, breakfast)
  3. Delete the rate used in step 2 from the workspace per diem settings
  4. Go to the workspace chat and open the expense
  5. Verify the "Rate not valid for this workspace" error banner is shown
  6. Tap more → duplicate expense
  7. Verify duplication is blocked (the hasCustomUnitOutOfPolicyViolation guard prevents it)
  • Verify that no errors appear in the JS console

Offline tests

  1. While offline, delete a per diem rate from workspace settings
  2. Verify the violation is optimistically added (error banner shows immediately)
  3. Reconnect to the network
  4. Verify the violation persists after sync

QA Steps

  1. Have a workspace with per diem rates imported
  2. Create a per diem expense using one of the rates
  3. Delete the rate used in step 2 from workspace per diem settings
  4. Open the expense
  5. Verify the "Rate not valid for this workspace" error is displayed
  6. Try to duplicate the expense
  7. Verify duplication is blocked with an appropriate error, not an "unexpected error"
  • Verify that no errors appear in the JS console

PR Author Checklist

  • I linked the correct issue in the ### Fixed Issues section above
  • I wrote clear testing steps that cover the changes made in this PR
    • I added steps for local testing in the Tests section
    • I added steps for the expected offline behavior in the Offline steps section
    • I added steps for Staging and/or Production testing in the QA steps section
    • I added steps to cover failure scenarios (i.e. verify an input displays the correct error message if the entered data is not correct)
    • I turned off my network connection and tested it while offline to ensure it matches the expected behavior (i.e. verify the default avatar icon is displayed if app is offline)
    • I tested this PR with a High Traffic account against the staging or production API to ensure there are no regressions (e.g. long loading states that impact usability).
  • I included screenshots or videos for tests on all platforms
  • I ran the tests on all platforms & verified they passed on:
    • Android: Native
    • Android: mWeb Chrome
    • iOS: Native
    • iOS: mWeb Safari
    • MacOS: Chrome / Safari
  • I verified there are no console errors (if there's a console error not related to the PR, report it or open an issue for it to be fixed)
  • I followed proper code patterns (see Reviewing the code)
    • I verified that any callback methods that were added or modified are named for what the method does and never what callback they handle (i.e. toggleReport and not onIconClick)
    • I verified that comments were added to code that is not self explanatory
    • I verified that any new or modified comments were clear, correct English, and explained "why" the code was doing something instead of only explaining "what" the code was doing.
    • I verified any copy / text shown in the product is localized by adding it to src/languages/* files and using the translation method
      • If any non-english text was added/modified, I used JaimeGPT to get English > Spanish translation. I then posted it in #expensify-open-source and it was approved by an internal Expensify engineer. Link to Slack message:
    • I verified all numbers, amounts, dates and phone numbers shown in the product are using the localization methods
    • I verified any copy / text that was added to the app is grammatically correct in English. It adheres to proper capitalization guidelines (note: only the first word of header/labels should be capitalized), and is either coming verbatim from figma or has been approved by marketing (in order to get marketing approval, ask the Bug Zero team member to add the Waiting for copy label to the issue)
    • I verified proper file naming conventions were followed for any new files or renamed files. All non-platform specific files are named after what they export and are not named "index.js". All platform-specific files are named for the platform the code supports as outlined in the README.
    • I verified the JSDocs style guidelines (in STYLE.md) were followed
  • If a new code pattern is added I verified it was agreed to be used by multiple Expensify engineers
  • I followed the guidelines as stated in the Review Guidelines
  • I tested other components that can be impacted by my changes (i.e. if the PR modifies a shared library or component like Avatar, I verified the components using Avatar are working as expected)
  • I verified all code is DRY (the PR doesn't include any logic written more than once, with the exception of tests)
  • I verified any variables that can be defined as constants (ie. in CONST.ts or at the top of the file that uses the constant) are defined as such
  • I verified that if a function's arguments changed that all usages have also been updated correctly
  • If any new file was added I verified that:
    • The file has a description of what it does and/or why is needed at the top of the file if the code is not self explanatory
  • If a new CSS style is added I verified that:
    • A similar style doesn't already exist
    • The style can't be created with an existing StyleUtils function (i.e. StyleUtils.getBackgroundAndBorderStyle(theme.componentBG))
  • If new assets were added or existing ones were modified, I verified that:
    • The assets are optimized and compressed (for SVG files, run npm run compress-svg)
    • The assets load correctly across all supported platforms.
  • If the PR modifies code that runs when editing or sending messages, I tested and verified there is no unexpected behavior for all supported markdown - URLs, single line code, code blocks, quotes, headings, bold, strikethrough, and italic.
  • If the PR modifies a generic component, I tested and verified that those changes do not break usages of that component in the rest of the App (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)
  • If the PR modifies a component related to any of the existing Storybook stories, I tested and verified all stories for that component are still working as expected.
  • If the PR modifies a component or page that can be accessed by a direct deeplink, I verified that the code functions as expected when the deeplink is used - from a logged in and logged out account.
  • If the PR modifies the UI (e.g. new buttons, new UI components, changing the padding/spacing/sizing, moving components, etc) or modifies the form input styles:
    • I verified that all the inputs inside a form are aligned with each other.
    • I added Design label and/or tagged @Expensify/design so the design team can review the changes.
  • If a new page is added, I verified it's using the ScrollView component to make it scrollable when more elements are added to the page.
  • I added unit tests for any new feature or bug fix in this PR to help automatically prevent regressions in this user flow.
  • If the main branch was merged into this PR after a review, I tested again and verified the outcome was still expected according to the Test steps.

When a per diem rate is deleted, the CUSTOM_UNIT_OUT_OF_POLICY violation
was not being added to affected transactions (unlike distance rate
deletion which does this). This caused the "Rate not valid" error banner
to not appear when viewing the expense, and allowed duplication to
proceed with an invalid rate resulting in an unexpected error.

Two fixes:
1. Update deleteWorkspacePerDiemRates to optimistically add
   CUSTOM_UNIT_OUT_OF_POLICY violations to affected transactions,
   mirroring the pattern in deletePolicyDistanceRates.
2. Add a per diem fallback to the isCustomUnitOutOfPolicy check in
   MoneyRequestView.tsx that directly validates the rate still exists
   in the policy, similar to the existing distance request fallback.

Merged main and resolved the conflict in src/pages/workspace/perDiem/WorkspacePerDiemPage.tsx — it was a simple import conflict between useTransactionViolation (from this PR) and useWorkspaceDocumentTitle (from main). Both imports are kept.
