Description

editExpense now reads groupId and writes it on the same update as the payer and participant rows, including an explicit null when the caller clears the group. Before either edit path in the expense router, assertExpenseGroupReassignment allows a null group to become a real group only when that group exists, is not archived, and contains the acting user, the payer, and every participant. An expense that already has a group must keep that same groupId. The new splitService tests cover the update payload and these rejections, and the Jest config sets SKIP_ENV_VALIDATION when it is unset so next/jest can load without a local env file.

Saving an edit that places a previously ungrouped expense into a group completes with no error, yet the expense never shows up in that group's list. Opening the expense again still shows the original individual participants. editExpense omitted groupId from the fields it read off its input and from the data passed to the expense update. The group id the edit form already submitted was dropped, so an expense stored with a null groupId stayed ungrouped.

Fixes #763

Walkthrough

The expense router and service now support assigning an ungrouped expense to a group. They validate group membership, apply the assignment to currency-conversion edits, and reject conflicting updates. Integration tests cover successful assignments and rejection cases.

Changes: Expense group reassignment

Layer / File(s) Summary
Reassignment validation and persistence
src/server/api/services/splitService.ts
The service checks that the payer and participants belong to the target group when an ungrouped expense receives a group. editExpense constrains the update by the requested group ID and translates Prisma P2025 errors into CONFLICT errors.
Router permission and reassignment checks
src/server/api/routers/expense.ts
Permission validation returns the stored group ID. Expense and currency-conversion edits call the reassignment check, and existing TRPCErrors propagate unchanged.
Assignment integration coverage
src/tests/integration/expenseGroupReassignment.integration.test.ts
Tests cover successful expense and currency-conversion assignments, authorization and membership failures, concurrent reassignment, archived groups, and unchanged accounting snapshots after rejected assignments.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the primary change: the edit flow now saves a group assignment for an expense that had no group. It matches the summarized changes to editExpense (groupId now read and written) and assertExpenseGroupReassignment. The title is specific, follows the conventional prefix style, and is under 72 characters.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description covers the core change and the root cause. It explains that editExpense dropped groupId from its input and update data, and that assertExpenseGroupReassignment now governs group reassignment. It links the issue (Fixes #763) and states that the Demo section is not applicable. The checklist is mostly complete. Two items remain unchecked: the pre-commit checks item and the AI review item. The description also includes a note on Jest config that the template does not request, and it does not mention the integration test file, though the objectives say the tests were moved there.

Resolution

Optional: confirm the last commit passed pre-commit checks and that AI-generated code was reviewed, or check those boxes. Consider naming the integration test file (src/tests/integration/expenseGroupReassignment.integration.test.ts) in the description so reviewers can find the coverage.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #763 requires an edit to assign an ungrouped expense to the selected group and show it in the group expense list. editExpense reads groupId and writes it in the same update as the expense fields, including null when requested. The update condition prevents overwriting a competing group assignment. The router validates the target group and membership before the write. The integration test verifies the stored groupId, getGroupExpenses, balances, and linked currency-conversion records. Existing expense detail behavior reads the stored group, which supports reopening the expense with the group assignment.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The reviewed changes stay within issue #763. Permission checks for group existence, archive state, actor membership, payer membership, and participant membership protect the new assignment path. Conditional updates and CONFLICT errors protect the same write from concurrent changes. The integration tests cover the assignment, rejection, accounting, list, balance, and race behavior. No unrelated change is established.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 50.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 2 functions across 3 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Before I review this, could you rebase the branch and update the test file to rely on the new testing infra?

validateEditExpensePermission let any caller through when the expense
had a non-null addedBy, because it only checked that addedBy existed.
It now requires the caller to be a participant or the user who added
the expense. The currency-conversion edit path also runs this check
before assertExpenseGroupReassignment, so a user who knows another
person's ungrouped expense ID can no longer move it into one of their
groups through either edit path.

Refs oss-apps#763
…ion harness

Main now runs validateExpenseWritePermission on every expense and
currency-conversion write. It checks edit permission, group existence,
membership and archive state, and it rejected any change to an
expense's groupId, which blocked the oss-apps#763 fix. The conflict in
addOrEditExpense is resolved by keeping main's write check and dropping
this branch's older inline group lookup. The groupId comparison now
only rejects a change when the stored expense already has a group, so
an ungrouped expense can be assigned to a group while a grouped one
still cannot move or be ungrouped. assertExpenseGroupReassignment still
runs on both edit paths to require that the payer and every participant
belong to the target group. The extra validateEditExpensePermission
call in the conversion path is removed because main's write check
already runs it.

The mocked splitService.test.ts is replaced by
src/tests/integration/expenseGroupReassignment.integration.test.ts,
which uses the shared factories and tRPC caller against the disposable
test database. It covers persisting the group on edit, both linked
currency-conversion records, an unrelated caller, a caller, payer or
participant outside the group, and an archived group. Each rejection
leaves accounting unchanged.

Merged main into the branch and moved the tests to the new harness. The mocked splitService.test.ts is gone; the coverage now lives in src/tests/integration/expenseGroupReassignment.integration.test.ts and goes through the real tRPC caller and factories. One thing to flag: validateExpenseWritePermission on main rejected any groupId change on edit, which is exactly what #763 needs, so I relaxed it to only reject when the expense already has a group. Moving a grouped expense to another group or ungrouping it is still rejected, and the existing authorization tests for that are unchanged. Lint, tsc and the unit suite pass locally. I couldn't run the integration suite on this machine (no pg_cron), so the integration job here is the first real run of those tests. I merged rather than rebased to avoid a force push; happy to squash if you prefer.

Consolidate the overlapping group checks without dropping participant validation.

Both edit procedures call validateExpenseWritePermission and then assertExpenseGroupReassignment. For an ungrouped expense assigned to a group, both helpers repeat the group existence, archive, and actor-membership checks. They also perform duplicate expense and group queries.

The helpers are not exact duplicates. assertExpenseGroupReassignment additionally checks the payer and participants, and the immutability errors differ. Preserve those checks and the current early-return behavior while moving the shared group rules into one validator.

validateExpenseWritePermission already rejects changing a grouped
expense's group and checks that the target group exists, is not
archived and has the actor as a member. It now returns the stored
group id, and assertExpenseGroupReassignment takes it instead of
re-reading the expense and group, keeping only the payer and

Took the consolidation nitpick in 766e6d2. validateExpenseWritePermission already covered the grouped-expense immutability, group existence, archived state and actor membership, and it always runs first, so assertExpenseGroupReassignment was repeating those queries. The validator now returns the stored group id, and the reassignment helper takes it and only checks that the payer and participants are group members. The error messages callers can hit are unchanged. tsc, oxlint and the integration suite against the docker Postgres (5 suites, 22 tests, including expenseGroupReassignment) pass locally.

Comment thread src/server/api/routers/expense.ts Resolved
Two concurrent edits of an ungrouped expense could both pass validation for
different groups. editExpense then updated by id alone, so the later write
moved an expense the first had already grouped, bypassing the rule that a
grouped expense keeps its group.

Make the update conditional on the expense still being ungrouped or already
in the target group. If it no longer is, the transaction rolls back and the
caller gets a CONFLICT instead of a generic server error.

Valid, fixed in 5ed175a. The expense update in editExpense now only matches while the expense is still ungrouped or already in the target group, so of two concurrent edits to different groups the later one matches nothing and its transaction rolls back. editExpense turns that into a CONFLICT asking the user to reload, and addOrEditExpense now passes TRPCErrors through instead of replacing them with the generic server error.

The new integration test calls editExpense directly to stand in for an edit that passed validation while the expense was still ungrouped; it fails without the condition. I did not race two real connections, because the harness holds a single connection.

tsc, oxlint on the changed files, the unit suite and the integration suite (23 tests) pass locally. The docker test database wouldn't start here, so the integration run used a local Postgres 17 with the migrations applied and the pg_cron functions stubbed. The integration job here is the first run against the real image.

Cover the conflict through addOrEditExpense.

The stale-group test calls editExpense directly. It therefore bypasses addOrEditExpense and does not exercise the changed TRPCError catch. Add a route-level integration case with a deterministic stale-group interleaving, then assert that caller.expense.addOrEditExpense(...) rejects with code: 'CONFLICT'.

Add a route-level case that lands a competing group assignment between
validation and the write, so addOrEditExpense has to return CONFLICT
rather than the generic server error. Also assert that an assigned
conversion shows up in the group expense list and in balances for both
currencies.

Took both nitpicks in 9686a20. The new test wraps the validator's read of the expense so a competing group assignment lands right after it, then asserts that addOrEditExpense rejects with CONFLICT, which covers the TRPCError passthrough. The conversion test now also checks getGroupExpenses and both currencies in balanceView. This is a test-only change. prettier on the changed file, oxlint, tsc, and the unit and integration suites pass locally.

Reject conflicting conversion-target group updates.

A conversion participant can assign the target to group B through a regular expense edit. A different source participant outside B can then assign the ungrouped source to group A. The source edit overwrites the target with group A without checking its current group.

Both expenses are then grouped. The grouped-expense restriction prevents group B from restoring the target through supported edits.

Reject ordinary edits of conversion sources.

An authorized participant can submit a non-conversion edit with group-member payer and participants for an ungrouped conversion source. assertExpenseGroupReassignment checks only those submitted source users. editExpense then assigns the group to the source while the linked target keeps its original nonmember payer and remains ungrouped.

getGroupExpenses allows any group member to read the group and includes conversionTo. A member added only to the source can therefore receive the target’s payer, amount, and currency. getExpenseDetails would reject that member for the ungrouped target because the member is neither its participant nor its creator.

Reject ordinary edits of conversion sources. Require the currency-conversion endpoint, which updates both records and validates both participants.

persisted accounting snapshot after the winning assignment, then compare it with
the snapshot after the rejected edit returns CONFLICT. Keep the existing groupId
assertion and ensure the comparison detects changes to participants or balances.
- Around line 64-68: Update the balance assertion in the expense group
reassignment integration test to verify each persisted balance’s currency,
userId, friendId, and expected amount, keeping the USD and EUR expectations
separate instead of checking only currency labels.

The source update already refused a group assignment that lost a race, but
the linked target was overwritten unchecked. A target another edit had put
in a different group now gets the same write-time check, and the transaction
returns CONFLICT.

An ordinary edit of a conversion source updated only the source, so its group
could change while the target kept its payer outside that group. It also
deleted the target's participants. Such edits are now rejected; the
conversion route updates both records.

Tests assert the amounts in both currency balances and that a rejected edit
leaves the accounting unchanged.

Both findings outside the diff held up, and ca23152 fixes them.

  • Conversion targets: the target update in editExpense now only matches while the target is ungrouped or already in the requested group. A target that another edit put in a different group fails the transaction, which returns CONFLICT.
  • Ordinary edits of a conversion source: editExpense now rejects them with BAD_REQUEST. They could group the source alone, and they also deleted the target's participants. The app already edits conversions through addOrEditCurrencyConversion, which still updates both records.

Each change has a new integration test, and both tests fail without it. The two inline test comments are fixed in the same commit.

prettier on the changed files, oxlint, tsc, and the unit suite (442 tests) and integration suite (26 tests) pass locally on Node 24, not the 22.16.0 CI uses. The integration run used a local Postgres 17 with cron stubbed, because pg_cron isn't installed here.

Thanks for merging this, @krokosik. An edited expense that gets moved into a group should now actually show up in that group's list.
