Proposal

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

Reimbursement message disappears in thread header

What is the root cause of that problem?

We did not cover the case of MARKEDREIMBURSED in getReportName here and when we generate report name, we only take out the first item of message text which is You in this case.

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

We should add the check to cover reimbursement message type and other cases of reimbursement messages like REIMBURSEMENTDEQUEUED or REIMBURSEMENTQUEUED as well inside isChatThread case.

if (parentReportAction.actionName === CONST.REPORT.ACTIONS.TYPE.MARKEDREIMBURSED) {
    return ReportActionsUtils.getMarkedReimbursedMessage(parentReportAction);
}

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

NA
