Proposal

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

Scan – RBR is not displayed in LHN when editing an amount to be higher than the scanned amount

What is the root cause of that problem?

We missed notice type violations here

App/src/libs/ReportUtils.ts

Line 6957 in 84885ab

return hasViolations(potentialReport.reportID, transactionViolations) || hasWarningTypeViolations(potentialReport.reportID, transactionViolations);

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

We need to consider notice type violations here

App/src/libs/ReportUtils.ts

Line 6957 in 84885ab

return hasViolations(potentialReport.reportID, transactionViolations) || hasWarningTypeViolations(potentialReport.reportID, transactionViolations);

            hasViolations(potentialReport.reportID, transactionViolations) ||
            hasWarningTypeViolations(potentialReport.reportID, transactionViolations) ||
            hasNoticeTypeViolations(potentialReport.reportID, transactionViolations)
        );

If needed to be consistent with report preview here we can optionally pass shouldShowInReview param as true.
Note: There are also more inconsistencies in LHN RBR compared to the ReportPreview RBR logic here we also have missed smart scanning errors so we can also handle those missed cases to in the PR (similarly with MoneyRequestPreview which shows rbr for held transactions).

What specific scenarios should we cover in automated tests to prevent reintroducing this issue in the future?

Add test for shouldDisplayViolationsRBRInLHN to assert that it handles notice type violations too

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

[RachCHopkins]

Will triage asap

[RachCHopkins]

Can confirm the result. Weirdly, I had another chat that has RBR and I fixed the issue on that and it also did not update in the LHN. There is also nothing in the workspace chat that indicates an issue:
