Proposal

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

Onboarding - qa.guide@team.expensify.com appears in workspace invite members list suggestion

What is the root cause of that problem?

Qa remove from invite list

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

We should check the qa entry and explicitly remove that here

App/src/pages/workspace/WorkspaceInvitePage.tsx

Lines 212 to 218 in 2be813f

	const personalDetailsFormatted = personalDetailsWithoutSelected.map((item) => formatMemberForList(item));
	sectionsArr.push({
	title: translate('common.contacts'),
	data: personalDetailsFormatted,
	shouldShow: !isEmptyObject(personalDetailsFormatted),
	});

Add EMAIL.QA_GUIDE in EXPENSIFY_EMAILS

QA_GUIDE: 'qa.guide@team.expensify.com',

Add qa guide in account id

QA_GUIDE: Number(Config?.EXPENSIFY_ACCOUNT_ID_QA_GUIDE ?? -1),

App/src/CONST/index.ts

Lines 2575 to 2576 in 2be813f

	QA: Number(Config?.EXPENSIFY_ACCOUNT_ID_QA ?? 3126513),
	QA_TRAVIS: Number(Config?.EXPENSIFY_ACCOUNT_ID_QA_TRAVIS ?? 8595733),

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)
