Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

• On Requesting Money the page is navigating back to Manual Request page instead of report page.

What is the root cause of that problem?

• Here in MoneyRequestConfirmPage.js the conditions
  • _.isEmpty(props.iou.participants)
  • props.iou.amount === 0 && !props.iou.receiptPath && !isDistanceRequest
    are getting true which in turn is calling goBack() function which is navigating back to Manual Request page instead of report page.

App/src/pages/iou/steps/MoneyRequestConfirmPage.js

Lines 105 to 107 in e23c181

	if (_.isEmpty(props.iou.participants) || (props.iou.amount === 0 && !props.iou.receiptPath && !isDistanceRequest) || shouldReset) {
	Navigation.goBack(ROUTES.getMoneyRequestRoute(iouType.current, reportID.current), true);
	}

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

• We can add a ref navigatingBack and set it true when we call requestMoney function.

App/src/pages/iou/steps/MoneyRequestConfirmPage.js

Line 129 in e23c181

const requestMoney = useCallback(

• And we can add a check if (!navigatingBack.current) in the conditions.

if (!navigatingBack.current && (_.isEmpty(props.iou.participants) || (props.iou.amount === 0 && !props.iou.receiptPath && !isDistanceRequest) || shouldReset)) {
    Navigation.goBack(ROUTES.getMoneyRequestRoute(iouType.current, reportID.current), true);
}

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

RHP does not disappear after sending a request money

What is the root cause of that problem?

Let's see here

App/src/libs/actions/IOU.js

Lines 650 to 652 in 5150f86

	resetMoneyRequestInfo();
	Navigation.dismissModal(isMoneyRequestReport ? report.reportID : chatReport.reportID);
	Report.notifyNewAction(chatReport.reportID, payeeAccountID);

When requesting money, we clear the field on ONYX before dismissing the modal.

And in here

App/src/pages/iou/steps/MoneyRequestConfirmPage.js

Line 105 in 5150f86

if (_.isEmpty(props.iou.participants) || (props.iou.amount === 0 && !props.iou.receiptPath && !isDistanceRequest) || shouldReset) {

Because we clear the field before dismissing the modal, this logic will be triggered. It causes wrong navigation.

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

App/src/libs/actions/IOU.js

Lines 650 to 652 in 5150f86

	resetMoneyRequestInfo();
	Navigation.dismissModal(isMoneyRequestReport ? report.reportID : chatReport.reportID);
	Report.notifyNewAction(chatReport.reportID, payeeAccountID);

In here, we should dismiss modal before clear iou field

App/src/pages/iou/steps/MoneyRequestConfirmPage.js

Line 105 in 5150f86

if (_.isEmpty(props.iou.participants) || (props.iou.amount === 0 && !props.iou.receiptPath && !isDistanceRequest) || shouldReset) {

And in here we should check if modal.isVisible === false we will return that useEffect like that

useEffect(() => {
        const initialModalState = getModalState();
        if (!initialModalState.isVisible) {
            return;
        }

@laurenreidexpensify This issue is blocking other issues that relate to IOU. Could you prioritize taking a look at this?

Triggered auto assignment to @AndrewGable (Engineering), see https://stackoverflow.com/c/expensify/questions/4319 for more details.

The automation failed to assign an engineer here so have re-added.

@jeet-dhandha and @DylanDylann - Trying to figure out which PR introduced this recently, if you have any leads that would be helpful!

[AndrewGable]

I can reproduce on staging, I cannot reproduce on production so this does seem like something we introduced recently.

[AndrewGable]

Interestingly, I cannot reproduce on main, so I do wonder if this has already been fixed..?

[AndrewGable]

I can't tell if main is actually not triggering the bug or not as I cannot reproduce locally on the staging branch
