Proposal

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

Duplicate - The menu doesn't closes immediately after duplicating the expense

What is the root cause of that problem?

The duplicate action in MoneyRequestHeader has shouldCloseModalOnSelect: false, which prevents the menu from closing after duplicating an expense

App/src/components/MoneyRequestHeader.tsx

Line 414 in 894cbc2

shouldCloseModalOnSelect: false,

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

I think it's expected to see the menu after duplicating the expense, but if we want to close it immediately, we can remove the shouldCloseModalOnSelect: false prop

App/src/components/MoneyRequestHeader.tsx

Lines 401 to 415 in 894cbc2

    
           [CONST.REPORT.SECONDARY_ACTIONS.DUPLICATE]: { 
        
               text: isDuplicateActive ? translate('common.duplicate') : translate('common.duplicated'), 
        
               icon: isDuplicateActive ? Expensicons.ReceiptMultiple : Expensicons.CheckmarkCircle, 
        
               value: CONST.REPORT.SECONDARY_ACTIONS.DUPLICATE, 
        
               onSelected: () => { 
        
                   if (!isDuplicateActive || !transaction) { 
        
                       return; 
        
                   } 
        
                   temporarilyDisableDuplicateAction(); 
        
                   duplicateTransaction([transaction]); 
        
               }, 
        
               shouldCloseModalOnSelect: false, 
        
           },

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

Create a ref for the ButtonWithDropdownMenu component and use useEffect to close the menu when isDuplicateActive changes from false to true

Yes, this is expected for now. The menu should only close immediately in the case of duplicating an expense where there are no other expenses, because in this case we navigate to a different view (this is to handle #77289).

Okay, since this is expected I'm going to close
