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 / Chrome
    • iOS / native
    • iOS / Safari
    • MacOS / Chrome / Safari
    • MacOS / Desktop
  • 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 any callback methods that were added or modified are named for what the method does and never what callback they handle (i.e. toggleReport and not onIconClick)
    • I verified that the left part of a conditional rendering a React component is a boolean and NOT a string, e.g. myBool && <MyComponent />.
    • 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 shown in the product is localized by adding it to src/languages/* files and using the translation method
      • If any non-english text was added/modified, I verified the translation was requested/reviewed in #expensify-open-source and it was approved by an internal Expensify engineer. Link to Slack message:
    • I verified all numbers, amounts, dates and phone numbers shown in the product are using the localization methods
    • I verified any copy / text that was added to the app is grammatically correct in English. It adheres to proper capitalization guidelines (note: only the first word of header/labels should be capitalized), and is approved by marketing by adding the Waiting for Copy label for a copy review on the original GH to get the correct copy.
    • I verified proper file naming conventions were followed for any new files or renamed files. All non-platform specific files are named after what they export and are not named "index.js". All platform-specific files are named for the platform the code supports as outlined in the README.
    • I verified the JSDocs style guidelines (in STYLE.md) were followed
  • 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)
  • I verified all code is DRY (the PR doesn't include any logic written more than once, with the exception of tests)
  • I verified any variables that can be defined as constants (ie. in CONST.js or at the top of the file that uses the constant) are defined as such
  • I verified that if a function's arguments changed that all usages have also been updated correctly
  • If a new component is created I verified that:
    • A similar component doesn't exist in the codebase
    • All props are defined accurately and each prop has a /** comment above it */
    • The file is named correctly
    • The component has a clear name that is non-ambiguous and the purpose of the component can be inferred from the name alone
    • The only data being stored in the state is data necessary for rendering and nothing else
    • If we are not using the full Onyx data that we loaded, I've added the proper selector in order to ensure the component only re-renders when the data it is using changes
    • For Class Components, any internal methods passed to components event handlers are bound to this properly so there are no scoping issues (i.e. for onClick={this.submit} the method this.submit should be bound to this in the constructor)
    • Any internal methods bound to this are necessary to be bound (i.e. avoid this.submit = this.submit.bind(this); if this.submit is never passed to a component event handler like onClick)
    • All JSX used for rendering exists in the render method
    • The component has the minimum amount of code necessary for its purpose, and it is broken down into smaller components in order to separate concerns and functions
  • If any new file was added I verified that:
    • The file has a description of what it does and/or why is needed at the top of the file if the code is not self explanatory
  • 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(themeColors.componentBG))
  • If the PR modifies code that runs when editing or sending messages, I tested and verified there is no unexpected behavior for all supported markdown - URLs, single line code, code blocks, quotes, headings, bold, strikethrough, and italic.
  • 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 (i.e. if a shared library or component like Avatar is modified, I verified that Avatar is working as expected in all cases)
  • If the PR modifies a component related to any of the existing Storybook stories, I tested and verified all stories for that component are still working as expected.
  • 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 - from a logged in and logged out account.
  • If a new page is added, I verified it's using the ScrollView component to make it scrollable when more elements are added to the page.
  • 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.
  • I have checked off every checkbox in the PR author checklist, including those that don't apply to this PR.

- If you have access to the existing bank account but the new payer doesn’t:
- You’ll be prompted to **share** the bank account directly from the **Authorized payer** screen.
- We’ll share the bank account immediately if you proceed.

Style violation: Avoid contractions like "We'll" in documentation. Use "We will" instead to maintain a professional tone. This aligns with Expensify's casual yet professional voice.

Readability violation: This bullet point needs a period at the end for consistency with other list items in the document.

- If **neither** you nor the new selected payer has access:
- You’ll be shown an error telling you to ask the current payer to share the account.

These flows ensure you can only set an Authorized Payer who already has bank account access or is granted access during the flow.

Readability violation: The nested bullet structure with multiple conditions is complex. Consider breaking this into a clearer format:

If you have access but the new payer doesn't:

  • You'll be prompted to share the bank account from the Authorized Payer screen
  • The account shares immediately when you confirm
  • A confirmation screen appears after successful sharing

This improves scannability and makes the flow easier to follow.

HelpDot Documentation Review

Overall Assessment

This PR adds a new section documenting the business bank account sharing functionality when changing the Authorized Payer in a workspace, along with two supporting FAQ entries. The documentation is a solid addition that clearly explains a specific user flow. The content is well-structured and informative, though there are opportunities to enhance readability, improve AI discoverability, and strengthen style compliance.

Scores Summary

  • Readability: 7/10 - Content is generally clear with good logical organization, but some sentences are complex and could be simplified. Bullet points effectively break down scenarios, though a few could be more concise.
  • AI Readiness: 6/10 - The new section heading lacks the full feature context, uses a vague reference, and the content relies heavily on pronouns. Better context setting and more explicit terminology would improve AI searchability.
  • Style Compliance: 7/10 - Generally follows Expensify style with proper capitalization and UI element formatting. However, there are inconsistencies in terminology and the structure could better match existing patterns in the document.

Key Findings

Positive Aspects:

  • Clear scenario-based organization using bullet points makes the different flows easy to distinguish
  • Strong integration with existing content - the new section fits logically after the sharing process steps
  • Good use of bold formatting for key UI elements and terms
  • FAQs directly address likely user questions about the new functionality
  • Consistent with the existing document's tone and approach

Areas for Improvement:

  • Heading clarity: The heading could be more explicit
  • Terminology consistency: Mix of payer, Authorized Payer, and Authorized payer with inconsistent capitalization
  • Pronoun overuse: Heavy reliance on you, your, we'll makes content harder for AI to parse out of context
  • Complex conditionals: Some bullet points contain nested conditions that could be broken down
  • Missing navigation context: Unlike other sections, this doesn't specify where these prompts appear
  • Passive voice: Could use more active voice in places

Critical Items:

  • None - this is an additive change with no breaking issues

Recommendations

Priority 1:

  1. Revise the main heading to include full context
  2. Standardize capitalization of Authorized Payer throughout
  3. Add navigation context at the start of the section

Priority 2:
4. Simplify complex bullets
5. Reduce pronoun dependency
6. Clarify we'll share language
7. Remove double line break before the FAQ separator

Priority 3:
8. Consider reordering the second FAQ to match the document flow
9. Add cross-reference to the main sharing section from the FAQs
10. Verify consistent terminology with other workspace payer documentation

Files Reviewed

  • docs/articles/new-expensify/wallet-and-payments/Share-a-Business-Bank-Account.md - New section added with generally good quality

Note: This review focuses on documentation quality dimensions. The content accurately reflects the feature functionality as described in the PR.
