Identified the PR that introduced this issue - PR
Due to changes in the PR, we are not sending lastModified in policy update payload while updating reimbursement rate and unit when Offline
This is causing the queued request (after coming online) to override the latest rate and unit.

Note: Reverting PR will re-introduce Issue

Proposal

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

WS - Track distance rate is updated on device B even if device A was offline. No error message.

What is the root cause of that problem?

Due to changes in the #29700, when Offline - we are not sending lastModified in policy update payload while updating reimbursement rate and unit (UpdateWorkspaceCustomUnitAndRate command).

This is causing the queued request to override the latest rate and unit after coming online.

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

Reverting the problematic PR if #28942 is not deploy blocker.
Need to explore other option to solve original issue.

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

NA

@narefyev91 @mountiny I'm not sure I understand this one, can you help me understand why this is an issue and a deploy blocker? what exactly is the issue when a pending offline change overrides a change made on the same account that is online? because I knew this will obviously be the resulting behaviour and thought it was okay

@francoisl
Copy link
Contributor

The idea is that we want to avoid multiple devices from overriding changes from each other while one is offline. I could be swayed either way that this is actually a bug or not, but it's an edge case so I'll remove the blocker label for now and we can have a broader discussion on whether we want to fix it later.


For reference, here's the error that you get with the production version

@francoisl I see, thank you for the clarification, if this kind of edge case might be problematic I can look into approaching my solution differently in my PR or any other approach that is appropriate here.

Proposal

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

The track distance rate can be updated while offline even though we already updated it from another device/client. It should give an error message because the data sent from the first device while offline is the old data (old lastModified)

What is the root cause of that problem?

We prevent the user from updating the track distance data if the sent lastModified over API is behind the lastModified in the server. However, while offline, we don't send the lastModified data.

...(!networkStatus.isOffline && {lastModified}),

It's to fix this issue, but the real issue is on the BE. #29853 (comment)

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

The BE issue is fixed, so we should always send the lastModified data.

I have retested #28942 after applying the solution and the issue is gone

there is a proposal here with the same FE solution, but I also help with the BE fix
