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

Fields are blank and when changing money request date

What is the root cause of that problem?

when changing the money request date we set onlyIncludeChangedFields param as true here That is why it only returns the changed
param as the money transaction

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

we should set it to false in order not to affect other fields

[bondydaa]

interesting, i guess i don't see how that is causing the crash only on the 2nd time it's called though.

cc @tgolen I see your name in that blame for updateMoneyRequestDate and getUpdateMoneyRequestParams any tips here for how to proceed?

Looks like this PR might be the root cause? #30737

[paultsimura]

Here is an issue with the same RC, which was created earlier: #33103
We hope to have a more fundamental discussion with Tim there 🙂

⚠️ Looks like this issue was linked to a Deploy Blocker here

If you are the assigned CME please investigate whether the linked PR caused a regression and leave a comment with the results.

If a regression has occurred and you are the assigned CM follow the instructions here.

If this regression could have been avoided please consider also proposing a recommendation to the PR checklist so that we can avoid it in the future.

I think we should revert #31340 (SET > MERGE) and find proper solution to fix #30290. That can be handled in #32511.

[bondydaa]

@situchan should we do anything for this GH then? Or should it be fixed by something on those PRs you've linked?

[situchan]

We should fix "crash" here. App is useless once user faced crash by updating date 2 times in offline mode.
Do you agree with my suggestion?
This will generate #30290 but that should not block deploy. Better than crash

[bondydaa]

It's very unclear to me what we should do.

Sounds like on #33103, #31340 is also discussed that added onyx.set

but not clear to me what the plan is there. Revert, CP fix to change .set to .merge 🤷

If we're going to revert #31340 then I think it would fix both this and #33103

[situchan]

If we're going to revert #31340 then I think it would fix both this and #33103

yes, correct. but the only concern is that it re-generates this bug due to revert

[paultsimura]

@situchan #31340 has just been waiting for your decision on causing a regression of #32511 as well🙂

As I described here and in the discussion of the selected proposal, using SET was a very risky decision.

If we are going to revert SET back to MERGE, I would like to ask for checking my proposal to the original issue first, and then continue in #32511.

Sure, it's in my next TODO. For now, focusing on this deploy blocker as requested by @trjExpensify (please assign me here as this is same as #33099 🙂)

[bondydaa]
