Explanation of Change

Auditors are default members of every workspace chat. The workspace setup adds them, so removing one doesn't stick, and they come back after a refresh. Resolve the member's own policy role when checking room member removal added isRoomMemberProtectedByPolicyRole. It protects the owner, admins and approvers, but it had no case for auditors, so the App offered "Remove from chat" for them.

This PR adds an auditor clause to isRoomMemberProtectedByPolicyRole: isPolicyAuditor(policy, login, false). To make that possible, isPolicyAuditor now has the same signature as isPolicyAdmin, including the shouldCheckGlobalPolicyRole flag, and sits next to it. With the flag set to false, it reads the listed member's own role instead of the viewer's global policy.role. Both callers get the fix:

  • DynamicRoomMembersPage: the auditor's row can't be selected.
  • DynamicRoomMemberDetailsPage: "Remove from chat" is disabled.

The existing isPolicyAuditor callers (WorkspacesSettingsUtils, ReportUtils, WorkspaceRestrictedActionPage) use the default flag, so policy.role still wins for them. They now also get getPolicyRole's lowercase employeeList fallback.

The JSDoc now explains why auditors are protected. A unit test covers an auditor, including a mixed-case login.

AI tests run locally:

  • npm test -- tests/unit/PolicyUtilsTest.ts tests/unit/ReportSecondaryActionUtilsTest.ts tests/unit/pages/RestrictedAction/WorkspaceRestrictedActionPageTest.tsx: 777 passed
  • npm test -- tests/unit/PolicyUtilsTest.ts tests/unit/ReportUtilsTest.ts (first commit): 1978 passed
  • npm run lint -- src/libs/PolicyUtils.ts: passed
  • npm run typecheck: no errors in the changed files

Not run: the full npm test suite and the Storybook smoke test. The change is limited to pure helpers and their tests.

Fixed Issues

$ #102680
PROPOSAL: #102680 (comment)

Tests

Precondition: as the workspace owner, create a Control workspace. Go to Workspace > Members and invite User B as Auditor and User C as Member.

  1. Open a workspace expense chat that includes User B (for example, User C's "'s expenses" chat) and go to its Members page.
  2. Verify that User B (the auditor) is listed and that their row checkbox is disabled, the same as the owner's.
  3. Click User B's row.
  4. Verify that "Remove from chat" is disabled.
  5. Go back, refresh the page, and reopen the chat's Members page.
  6. Verify that User B is still listed and their checkbox is still disabled.
  7. Create a custom room and invite User C.
  8. Open the room's Members page and verify that User C's checkbox is enabled.
  9. Click User C's row and verify that "Remove from chat" is enabled.
  • Verify that no errors appear in the JS console

Offline tests

  1. Turn off the network connection.
  2. Repeat steps 1-4 of the Tests section.
  3. Verify that the auditor's checkbox and "Remove from chat" are still disabled. The check uses policy data that is already stored on the device.

QA Steps

Same as tests.

  • Verify that no errors appear in the JS console

PR Author Checklist

  • I linked the correct issue in the ### Fixed Issues section above
  • I wrote clear testing steps that cover the changes made in this PR
    • I added steps for local testing in the Tests section
    • I added steps for the expected offline behavior in the Offline steps section
    • I added steps for Staging and/or Production testing in the QA steps section
    • I added steps to cover failure scenarios (i.e. verify an input displays the correct error message if the entered data is not correct)
    • I turned off my network connection and tested it while offline to ensure it matches the expected behavior (i.e. verify the default avatar icon is displayed if app is offline)
    • I tested this PR with a High Traffic account against the staging or production API to ensure there are no regressions (e.g. long loading states that impact usability).
  • I included screenshots or videos for tests on all platforms
  • I ran the tests on all platforms & verified they passed on:
    • Android: Native
    • Android: mWeb Chrome
    • iOS: Native
    • iOS: mWeb Safari
    • MacOS: Chrome / Safari
  • I verified there are no console errors (if there's a console error not related to the PR, report it or open an issue for it to be fixed)
  • I followed proper code patterns (see Reviewing the code)
    • I verified that comments were added to code that is not self explanatory
    • I verified that any new or modified comments were clear, correct English, and explained "why" the code was doing something instead of only explaining "what" the code was doing.
    • I verified any copy / text that was added to the app is grammatically correct in English. It adheres to proper capitalization guidelines (note: only the first word of header/labels should be capitalized), and is either coming verbatim from figma or has been approved by marketing (in order to get marketing approval, ask the Bug Zero team member to add the Waiting for copy label to the issue)
  • If a new code pattern is added I verified it was agreed to be used by multiple Expensify engineers
  • I followed the guidelines as stated in the Review Guidelines
  • I tested other components that can be impacted by my changes (i.e. if the PR modifies a shared library or component like Avatar, I verified the components using Avatar are working as expected)
  • If a new CSS style is added I verified that:
    • A similar style doesn't already exist
    • The style can't be created with an existing StyleUtils function (i.e. StyleUtils.getBackgroundAndBorderStyle(theme.componentBG))
  • If new assets were added or existing ones were modified, I verified that:
    • The assets are optimized and compressed (for SVG files, run npm run compress-svg)
    • The assets load correctly across all supported platforms.
  • If the PR modifies code that runs when editing or sending messages, I tested and verified there is no unexpected behavior for all supported markdown - URLs, single line code, code blocks, quotes, headings, bold, strikethrough, and italic.
  • If the PR modifies a generic component, I tested and verified that those changes do not break usages of that component in the rest of the App (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)
  • If the PR modifies a component related to any of the existing Storybook stories, I tested and verified all stories for that component are still working as expected.
  • If the PR modifies a component or page that can be accessed by a direct deeplink, I verified that the code functions as expected when the deeplink is used - from a logged in and logged out account.
  • If the PR modifies the UI (e.g. new buttons, new UI components, changing the padding/spacing/sizing, moving components, etc) or modifies the form input styles:
    • I verified that all the inputs inside a form are aligned with each other.
    • I added Design label and/or tagged @Expensify/design so the design team can review the changes.
  • If the PR adds or modifies the UI:
    • I asked an AI agent to review the changes for accessibility issues and addressed its findings.
    • I tested with a screen reader (VoiceOver on macOS) and verified all new/changed elements are reachable with a logical focus order.
    • I verified all new/changed elements have meaningful accessible names and roles.
    • I verified state changes are announced (e.g. checked/unchecked, expanded/collapsed, selected).
  • I added unit tests for any new feature or bug fix in this PR to help automatically prevent regressions in this user flow.
  • If the main branch was merged into this PR after a review, I tested again and verified the outcome was still expected according to the Test steps.

Auditors are default members of every workspace chat, so removing one
from the room members page did not stick and they reappeared after a
refresh. Treat the member's own auditor role as protected, the same as
admins and approvers.

🤖 Android test steps verification results: ⚠️ partial

The PR's Tests section is still empty, so these steps come from the linked issue and the PR description.

@marcaaron could you mark this PR ready for review? I still can't, and ikevin127 doesn't have permission. The description, test steps and PR Author Checklist are done.

ikevin127, you're right that I marked the other PR ready from the same prompt. Whether I can run that command depends on how each run is set up, not on the PR. In the other run it was allowed. In this run and the last one, it was blocked because it needed approval that no one can give mid-run. I tried again just now, and it was still blocked.

I still couldn't mark this PR ready for review. My environment requires approval for gh pr ready, and this run can't get that approval, so the PR is still a draft.

src/libs/PolicyUtils.ts L224

🟡 This inline getPolicyRole(policy, login, false) === CONST.POLICY.ROLE.AUDITOR does the same job as isPolicyAuditor. The only reason it can't call that helper is that isPolicyAuditor has no shouldCheckGlobalPolicyRole flag.

That's also why we now need a whole JSDoc paragraph explaining why we don't use it. Can we give isPolicyAuditor the same signature as isPolicyAdmin and call it here ?

Then the admin and auditor checks match, and the next role check won't hit the same trap:

/**
 * Checks if the current user is an auditor of the policy.
 *
 * When `login` belongs to somebody other than the current user, pass `shouldCheckGlobalPolicyRole = false` (see `isPolicyAdmin`).
 */
const isPolicyAuditor = (policy: OnyxInputOrEntry<Policy>, login?: string, shouldCheckGlobalPolicyRole = true): boolean =>
    getPolicyRole(policy, login, shouldCheckGlobalPolicyRole) === CONST.POLICY.ROLE.AUDITOR;
const isRoomMemberProtectedByPolicyRole = (policy: OnyxInputOrEntry<Policy>, login: string | undefined, accountID: number | undefined): boolean =>
    isPolicyOwner(policy, accountID) || !login || isPolicyAdmin(policy, login, false) || isPolicyAuditor(policy, login, false) || isPolicyApprover(policy, login);

This is safe for the 3 existing callers (WorkspacesSettingsUtils, ReportUtils, WorkspaceRestrictedActionPage). They all use the default flag, so policy.role still wins.

The one difference is that they also get the lowercase employeeList fallback, which is a fix in its own right: WorkspaceRestrictedActionPage passes email directly today. If lint complains about using isPolicyAuditor before it's defined, move it up next to isPolicyAdmin.

After that, the JSDoc paragraph about "not through isPolicyAuditor" can go.

Done in 8764e7b5. isPolicyAuditor now has the same signature as isPolicyAdmin, including the shouldCheckGlobalPolicyRole flag. It now sits next to isPolicyAdmin, and isRoomMemberProtectedByPolicyRole calls isPolicyAuditor(policy, login, false). I removed the JSDoc paragraph about not using isPolicyAuditor.

The 3 existing callers keep the default flag, so policy.role still wins. They also get the lowercase employeeList fallback now.

Checks
  • PolicyUtilsTest, ReportSecondaryActionUtilsTest, WorkspaceRestrictedActionPageTest: 777 passed
  • npm run lint -- src/libs/PolicyUtils.ts: passed
  • npm run typecheck: no errors in the changed files. The only errors are in unrelated react-native-gesture-handler files because this environment's node_modules is out of date.

I also updated the PR description to match.

Give isPolicyAuditor the same shouldCheckGlobalPolicyRole flag as isPolicyAdmin, move it next to isPolicyAdmin, and call it from isRoomMemberProtectedByPolicyRole. Existing callers keep the default flag, and now also get getPolicyRole's lowercase employeeList fallback.

I merged main into this branch, and the PR is now marked ready for review. It's mergeable again.

The conflict came from main moving src/libs/PolicyUtils.ts to src/libs/PolicyUtils/index.ts. Git applied the PR's changes to the new file automatically, and the diff against main still covers only the auditor change and its test.

Checks I ran after the merge:

  • npm test -- tests/unit/PolicyUtilsTest.ts tests/unit/pages/RestrictedAction/WorkspaceRestrictedActionPageTest.tsx: 614 passed
  • npm run lint on the changed files: passed
  • tsc --noEmit: no errors

@marcaaron I fixed the conflicts, and this is ready to merge. All CI checks pass except "Check independent approval", which needs your approval after the merge commit.

main moved the role helpers from src/libs/PolicyUtils/index.ts into the new src/libs/PolicyUtils/permissions.ts. I took main's version of both conflicted files and reapplied the same change there:

  • isPolicyAuditor now sits next to isPolicyAdmin and accepts shouldCheckGlobalPolicyRole.
  • isRoomMemberProtectedByPolicyRole now protects auditors.
  • The auditor unit test is back in the reorganized tests/unit/PolicyUtilsTest.ts.

The diff against main still covers only these two files. main added an isPolicyAuditor(policy) call in RoomHeaderAvatars, and its behavior doesn't change because it uses the default flag.
