P.S when trying to look at this from that thread, I was getting a duplicate report preview when I held an expense on v9.0.70-1 desktop app.

Steps:

1. Create 2 expenses in the workspace currency
2. Create 1 expense in a different currency
3. Click into the expense report
4. Hover over the preview of the first expense in the report.
5. Click Hold from the comment action menu on the expense preview
6. Observe the duplicate report preview created

I wanna test this on prod, but the PR is deployed to prod already. I think this issue exists on prod too. The prod video here doesn't show the pay behavior. The issue here is that, when we pay money request with held expenses partially, we use the amount of unheldTotal as the pay total. https://github.com/Expensify/App/blob/146204878d1b9d4358d91e9a0a81169a7819d96f/src/libs/actions/IOU.ts#L6642-L6645

However, unheldTotal includes non-reimbursable transactions too (track), so we got the error. Previously unheldTotal doesn't include non-reimbursable transactions, but we agreed to update it on the BE to include it. Since it's a BE change and has been updated since 16 Oct, I believe this exists on prod too.

The solution to this is to subtract unheldTotal by unheldNonReimbursableTotal.

@bernhardoj This seems like something we missed? The plan already covered that.

In the approve modal display:

Partial: unheldTotal Full: total

In the pay modal display:

Partial: unheldTotal - unheldNonReimbursableTotal Full: total - nonReimbursableTotal

[s77rt]

@bernhardoj Please raise a PR since this is a regression (or at least it's something that was supposed to be done in the PR)

[bernhardoj]

This seems like something we missed? https://github.com/Expensify/App/pull/49971#issuecomment-2397561749 already covered that.

That plan only handles the amount to be shown, not the API params.

[bernhardoj]

I'll handle this tomorrow.
