Explanation of Change

Fixed Issues

$ #105329
PROPOSAL:

Tests

Same QA steps

• Verify that no errors appear in the JS console

Offline tests

Same QA steps

QA Steps

1. Launch Expensify app
2. Override the anchoredFieldDropdowns beta to true.
3. Open a workspace chat in a workspace with Tax enabled and 8 tax rates.
4. Start a manual expense and continue to the confirmation form.
5. Click the Tax row.
6. Verify the Tax bottom sheet opens without a search input and shows all 8 rates without scrolling.
7. Add rates until there are 11. Verify the sheet grows taller than before, up to near the top of the screen, and only scrolls if the rates still don't fit.

• 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. No new copy was added in this PR.
• 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: no assets were added or modified.
• If the PR modifies code that runs when editing or sending messages: not applicable.
• 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 — CategoryPickerModal is shared with the Search table's inline category edit and needs re-verifying there.
• If the PR modifies a component related to any of the existing Storybook stories: not applicable.
• 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 — the full-page category route is unchanged and still reachable directly.
• 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. tests/unit/components/ExpenseFieldDropdown.test.tsx covers lazy mounting, opening in place vs. navigating, the row-width/below-the-row geometry, the flip above the row, dismissing by pressing the row again, and the full-page fallback.
• 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.

(4) code-comments, the fix itself looks right and all CI checks pass, including the 3 Jest jobs. My main concern is that the new tests never check the case the issue reports.

🟢 LGTM - All previous comments are addressed

@DylanDylann 🟠 QA step 6 will fail as written on a standard phone with 11 rates.

TaxFieldDropdown passes shouldShowHeader. So 11 rows need 11 * 64 + 32 + 44 - 16 + 34 = 798px, but an iPhone 13 (844 window, the issue's device) caps the sheet at about 744px. QA will see roughly the last row cut off and scrolling, then fail the step. The fix is correct; the step just promises too much.

Suggested replacement:

3. Open a workspace chat in a workspace with Tax enabled and 8 tax rates.
...
6. Verify the Tax bottom sheet opens without a search input and shows all 8 rates without scrolling.
7. Add rates until there are 11. Verify the sheet grows taller than before, up to near the top of the screen, and only scrolls if the rates still don't fit.

No help site update needed. This PR only changes how tall the field dropdown bottom sheet grows on phones, which is a layout detail behind the anchoredFieldDropdowns beta and doesn't make any help site article sentence wrong.
