Proposal

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

App crashes on request money with new user on deleting request.

What is the root cause of that problem?

the parentReportActions object below is undefined when deleting a request for new users:

App/src/components/ReportActionItem/MoneyRequestView.js

Lines 344 to 352 in f2b74e8

	}),
	withOnyx({
	transaction: {
	key: ({report, parentReportActions}) => {
	const parentReportAction = parentReportActions[report.parentReportActionID];
	const transactionID = lodashGet(parentReportAction, ['originalMessage', 'IOUTransactionID'], 0);
	return `${ONYXKEYS.COLLECTION.TRANSACTION}${transactionID}`;
	},
	},

Here is the error log:

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

Inside the transaction object, we need to add a default value for the parentReportActions to prevent accessing an undefined value

App/src/components/ReportActionItem/MoneyRequestView.js

Line 347 in f2b74e8

key: ({report, parentReportActions}) => {

to

            key: ({report, parentReportActions = {}}) => {

OR alternativly we can use lodashGet to safely access the parentReportActions object same as we do in the MoneyRequestHeader:

App/src/components/MoneyRequestHeader.js

Lines 179 to 186 in 9208c95

	withOnyx({
	transaction: {
	key: ({report, parentReportActions}) => {
	const parentReportAction = lodashGet(parentReportActions, [report.parentReportActionID]);
	return `${ONYXKEYS.COLLECTION.TRANSACTION}${lodashGet(parentReportAction, 'originalMessage.IOUTransactionID', 0)}`;
	},
	},
	}),

This looks like a duplicate of #33295 so I am going to close in favor of that one. The only difference is the platform, but the behavior is exactly the same.

@abzokhattab if you think your proposal will solve the other issue, could you please repost your proposal on #33295? Thanks!

[abzokhattab]

@sakluger I am not able to reproduce the other issue

#33295 (comment)

lets see if it's fixed we can open this one again ..

but the behavior is exactly the same.

not really .. the attached video there shows "hmm it's not here" page not a compiler error as it's currently happening in android

[abzokhattab]

@sakluger @aimane-chnaif Hey again, the other issue is not reproducible anymore and got closed ...

#33295 (comment)

however the current issue is still reproducible

again i believe the two issues are different, here we have a compiler error in anrdroid not hmm its not here which is a different error

[abzokhattab]

@sakluger @aimane-chnaif @izarutskaya

Just a reminder, the other issue is closed and still, this one is reproducible on the latest build (v1.4.22-3):

Screen.Recording.2024-01-08.at.5.17.45.PM.mov

[aimane-chnaif]

[abzokhattab]
