It seems it starts working after a while. Probably when Onyx pushes something back.
I think this flow is rare enough that we don't need to block (User chooses manual, immediately adds a receipt and then immediately changes it)

This issue is related to #33750.

The transaction thread OpenReport request fails and returns an error. Because it has an error, the receipt page will show not found based on this logic.

App/src/libs/ReportUtils.ts

Lines 3934 to 3944 in 964548a

	function canUserPerformWriteAction(report: OnyxEntry<Report>) {
	const reportErrors = getAddWorkspaceRoomOrChatReportErrors(report);
	// If the Money Request report is marked for deletion, let us prevent any further write action.
	if (isMoneyRequestReport(report)) {
	const parentReportAction = ReportActionsUtils.getReportAction(report?.parentReportID ?? '', report?.parentReportActionID ?? '');
	if (parentReportAction?.pendingAction === CONST.RED_BRICK_ROAD_PENDING_ACTION.DELETE) {
	return false;
	}
	}
	return !isArchivedRoom(report) && isEmptyObject(reportErrors) && report && isAllowedToComment(report) && !isAnonymousUser;
	}

Yeah, that looks correct from what I saw in my testing, but I couldn't reliably reproduce it and I think the error occurs with or without my changes to the receipt selector. I think the receipt selector PR merely unveiled the failures that have already been happening. Hopefully, we can get to the bottom of it in #33750 and I am going to close this issue because it's mostly a duplicate.
