Explanation of Change

  • Disables the start/stop dropdown button when OpenReport is in process (but not when the app is offline). This should prevent stale report actions from giving the start/stop timer an incorrect state.

Fixed Issues

$ https://github.com/Expensify/Expensify/issues/633688

Tests

  1. Sign into NewDot
  2. Open the Chronos chat
  3. Verify the start/stop dropdown button in the report header is disabled while the report data is loading. You can see this easily if you switch back and forth between two chats
  4. Once the button is enabled, verify it still works like normal

Offline tests

  1. Go offline
  2. Visit the chronos chat
  3. Verify the start/stop button is not disabled and you can use it
  4. Go online
  5. Verify whatever start/stop command you sent in step 3 goes through

QA Steps

Same as Tests.

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.

Made with Cursor

Use the per-report RAM_ONLY_REPORT_LOADING_STATE Onyx key (specifically
isLoadingInitialReportActions) to disable the start/stop timer button so the
user can't fire start/stop comments before the report has finished loading.

Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
The OpenReport optimisticData leaves isLoadingInitialReportActions=true
when the request is queued offline, which would otherwise lock the button
indefinitely. Gate the disabled state behind !isOffline so comments queued
offline are sent on reconnect, and add a UI test covering that path.

P2 Badge Disable the timer menu item as well

When isLoadingInitialReportActions flips while the dropdown is already open (for example, a background OpenReport from ReportActionsList runs after the user has opened the Chronos menu), this only disables the split buttons. ButtonWithDropdownMenu still keeps the existing PopoverMenu rendered and builds its menuItems directly from options, so selecting the already-visible Start/Stop Timer item still calls sendCommentToChronos() during the in-flight OpenReport, bypassing the new guard. The timer option itself needs to be disabled/guarded, or the menu closed, when shouldDisableButton is true.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

(Tim's AI agent) Agreed — ButtonWithDropdownMenu keeps PopoverMenu mounted with menuItems built from options, so a dropdown that was already open before isLoadingInitialReportActions flipped to true would still let the user select Start/Stop Timer and call sendCommentToChronos. Fixed in 238d1fa: each option in options now sets disabled: shouldDisableButton, and its onSelected short-circuits when shouldDisableButton is true (defense in depth, since the disabled flag alone isn't enough if the popover was already rendered with the prior closures). Also added a regression test (should not send a start timer command from an already-open dropdown when OpenReport flips to in-progress) that opens the dropdown, then flips the loading state, then asserts pressing the visible Start Timer item does not call addComment.

❌ CONSISTENCY-5 (docs)

The eslint-disable-next-line for @typescript-eslint/no-unsafe-member-access lacks a justifying comment explaining why the rule is suppressed.

Add a comment explaining the reason, for example:

// eslint-disable-next-line @typescript-eslint/no-unsafe-member-access -- React test instance `.props` is untyped
expect(btn.props.accessibilityState?.disabled).toBe(true);

ButtonWithDropdownMenu keeps the PopoverMenu rendered with menu items
built from `options`, so selecting an already-visible Start/Stop Timer
item from a dropdown opened before isLoadingInitialReportActions flipped
true would still call sendCommentToChronos. Mark each option as disabled
and short-circuit its onSelected when shouldDisableButton is true, and
add a regression test for the popover-already-open path.

Address the CONSISTENCY-5 review notes by appending a `-- ` justification
explaining why the no-unsafe-member-access rule is suppressed when
reading accessibilityState off the React test instance.

Codecov Report

✅ Changes either increased or maintained existing code coverage, great job!

Files with missing lines Coverage Δ
src/components/ChronosTimerHeaderButton.tsx 97.50% <100.00%> (+0.53%) ⬆️
... and 84 files with indirect coverage changes

ESLint enforces `unicorn/no-array-for-each`, so loop over rendered
buttons with `for…of` instead of `.forEach`. Also add a regression test
that covers the Schedule OOO `onSelected` short-circuit when the
dropdown is opened first and `OpenReport` flips to in-flight afterward,
which raises patch branch coverage on this file.

No help site changes are required for this PR.

This PR adds a loading-state guard to the Chronos timer header button — a purely internal UI behavior change. There are no existing help site articles under docs/articles that reference Chronos or the timer feature, so no documentation updates are needed.
