Explanation of Change

  • Updated buildOptimisticNextStepForPreventSelfApprovalsEnabled to use the new next step format
  • Replaced buildOptimisticNextStepForStrictPolicyRuleViolations with buildOptimisticFixIssueNextStep
  • Replaced buildOptimisticNextStepForDynamicExternalWorkflowSubmitError with buildOptimisticFixIssueNextStep
  • Replaced buildOptimisticNextStepForDynamicExternalWorkflowApproveError with buildOptimisticFixIssueNextStep
  • Removed buildOptimisticNextStepForDEWOffline I don't see why this was only added for DEW. - Removing this will not show any "offline" nextStep (same as other non-DEW cases)
  • Removed dotIndicator icon - Backend does not set this, it was only used by the optimistic functions that I replaced/removed above
  • Removed waitingForPolicyBankAccount message key, this is already removed from backend
  • Removed buildNextStepNew, we are now using buildOptimisticNextStep
  • Removed deprecatedGetPersonalDetailsByIDs and deprecatedGetLoginsByAccountIDs , they were only used in the now-removed buildNextStepNew
  • Removed a bunch of stale useOnyx and functions params, we used to get the report next step from its own collection key and send it a a dedicated param but now all of this data is in the report itself which in most cases is already obtained and passed

Fixed Issues

https://github.com/Expensify/Expensify/issues/528713
PROPOSAL:

Tests

  • Have two accounts: A submitter and an approver/payer
  • Have workspace that requires tags
  1. Create empty report
  2. Verify next step is Waiting for [Submitter name / you] to add expenses.
  3. Add an expense without a tag
  4. Verify next step is Waiting for [Submitter name / you] to fix the issues
  5. Set a tag
  6. Verify next step is Waiting for [Submitter name / you] to submit expenses
  7. Submit the report
  8. Verify next step is Waiting for [Approver name / you] to approve expenses
  9. Approve the report
  10. Verify next step is Waiting for [Approver name / you] to pay expenses
  11. Pay the report
  12. Verify next step is No further action required!

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 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 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)
  • 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)
  • 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.
  • 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.

Hey, I noticed you changed src/languages/en.ts in a PR from a fork. For security reasons, translations are not generated automatically for PRs from forks.

If you want to automatically generate translations for other locales, an Expensify employee will have to:

  1. Look at the code and make sure there are no malicious changes.
  2. Run the Generate static translations GitHub workflow. If you have write access and the K2 extension, you can simply click: [this button]

Alternatively, if you are an external contributor, you can run the translation script locally with your own OpenAI API key. To learn more, try running:

npx ts-node ./scripts/generateTranslations.ts --help

Typically, you'd want to translate only what you changed by running npx ts-node ./scripts/generateTranslations.ts --compare-ref main

P2 Badge Parse monthly ETA dates as local dates

After removing the deprecated message branch, monthly scheduled-submit messages always go through buildNextStepMessage; for numeric monthly offsets the optimistic next step stores eta.dateTime as a date-only yyyy-MM-dd string, and that path parses it with new Date(dateTime). In US/negative time zones, date-only strings are interpreted as UTC midnight, so an offset like the 2nd renders as the 1st. Please parse these ETAs as local dates or avoid date-only strings before relying exclusively on this renderer.

I don't think this is an issue? If harvesting will run on 2nd but in your timezone that's still 1st then showing 1st would not be incorrect

    • The only data being stored in the state is data necessary for rendering and nothing else

    • Any internal methods bound to this are necessary to be bound (i.e. avoid this.submit = this.submit.bind(this); if this.submit is never passed to a component event handler like onClick)
    • All JSX used for rendering exists in the render method
    • The component has the minimum amount of code necessary for its purpose, and it is broken down into smaller components in order to separate concerns and functions

    • 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)
