Action Performed:

@mallenexpensify reproduction steps

1. Received money request from Scott
2. Noticed it didn't include the $2.87 I knew I already owed him
3. Asked Scott to request $1 manually
4. $1 was added to the the most recent IOU request, old one hasn't been updated the past two transactions

Alternate reproduction steps:

1. Create 2 manual IOUs in a 1:1 conversation with user B
2. Create a Split with a scanned expense in a group conversation that includes user B and another user
3. Wait for the Scan to finish
4. Create a manual Split in the same conversation
5. Navigate back to the 1:1 to check the IOU reports

Expected Result:

There should be only one, ongoing IOU request between two users.

Actual Result:

There are two active IOU requests

Workaround:

N/A

I was able to reproduce the issue, here are the steps:

1. Create 2 manual IOUs in a 1:1 conversation with user B
2. Create a Split with a scanned expense in a group conversation that includes user B and another user
3. Wait for the Scan to finish
4. Create a manual Split in the same conversation
5. Navigate back to the 1:1 to check the IOU reports

On the image below:

1. IOU report 1 contains the expenses made in the 1:1 conversation
2. IOU report 2 contains the split expenses made in the group conversation

@eVoloshchak any reason you can think this shouldn't be external?

[joekaufmanexpensify]

Not overdue. Pending proposals

[joekaufmanexpensify]

Same

[eVoloshchak]

any reason you can think this shouldn't be external?

@mallenexpensify, this could be a BE issue, but could also be a problem on the FE.
I'm leaning toward the first one, but it's only a guess, I haven't done any investigating myself.
Let's leave this External for now and wait for proposals

📣 It's been a week! Do we have any satisfactory proposals yet? Do we need to adjust the bounty for this issue? 💸

[joekaufmanexpensify]

Sounds good!

[eVoloshchak]

Not overdue, waiting for proposals

[joekaufmanexpensify]

I will bring this one to slack to solicit proposals if nothing soon

[joekaufmanexpensify]

Going to look at which project this fits into tomorrow

@eVoloshchak @joekaufmanexpensify this issue was created 2 weeks ago. Are we close to approving a proposal? If not, what's blocking us from getting this issue assigned? Don't hesitate to create a thread in #expensify-open-source to align faster in real time. Thanks!

Hmm, I followed the exact reproduction steps listed above, and could not reproduce. Specifically, I:

1. Logged into [email protected], and created two manual IOUs with [email protected].
2. Then, I did a scanned split with [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected].
3. Then, I did a manual split with [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected].
4. When I go back to the DM between [email protected] and [email protected], I see all 4 requests combined into one report.

Going to close this one for now, as it doesn't seem to be consistently reproducible. If there are other steps that can be used to consistently reproduce this, let me know, and happy to investigate further!
