When a manager or approver views a Control-workspace expense in a category that requires attendees but has no non-owner attendee,
getTransactionsSectionsinserts the report owner as the default snapshot attendee, and this new fallback passes that owner intosyncMissingAttendeesViolationwhile the next argument remains the viewer'scurrentUserDetails. The helper therefore counts the submitter as a valid non-owner attendee and fails to add the real violation; the newgetAttendees(transaction)call inExpenseReportListItem.tsx:208has the same owner/viewer mismatch and can remove the snapshot violation. Use the report owner/submitterLoginfor the owner exclusion in both rows.Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

@VickyStash I think the owner vs viewer check needs fixing in this PR.
Say Alice submits an expense and is the only attendee. The backend flags it, because it leaves out the owner when it counts attendees. But
syncMissingAttendeesViolationleaves out the viewer. So when Bob, the approver, looks at the row in Search, the check leaves out Bob instead of Alice, Alice counts as the extra attendee, and the violation is hidden.Can we leave out the report owner's login instead, like the backend does, in both Search rows, with the current user as the fallback for unreported expenses?

Ah, I misunderstood the codex comment. @lakchote is right.

Yeah, and other places in the app pass the current user instead of the owner in other places too:
I've mentioned it here: #104540 (comment)
So if we do this:
we should change it everywhere, right?

@nkdengineer I guess it's the same on staging?
