@jamesdeanexpensify can you help us confirm what we want these to say right now? I know we were eventually going to change it to just
waiting to approvebut I think right now the backend should still be sendingwaiting to approve expenses(with no parentheses), right?@carlosmiceli can you double check what the next step is for the report on Old Dot? If it looks weird there we should probably fix.
An example of what we ultimately want to see (eg. for the "you" "approve" case) would be:
Waiting for you to approve.
Does that make sense? Right now, no parentheses on
expensesthough, if you need an answer on that!Looking into it 🫡
PR is up.
@Krishna2323 Uh oh! This issue is overdue by 2 days. Don't forget to update your issues!
@Krishna2323 6 days overdue. This is scarier than being forced to listen to Vogon poetry!
@Krishna2323 is there anythging left to do here? Can you retest and see if we can close?
@carlosmiceli I think we are good to close this.
