Proposal

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

This is regression from this PR, We've overlooked updating transactionDetails across all places. @MonilBhavsar I'm reaching out to you because you authored the offending PR

What is the root cause of that problem?

When we update the split transaction, we save the data in splitDraftTransaction. However, we consistently rely on transaction to obtain the tax amount

App/src/pages/iou/request/step/IOURequestStepTaxAmountPage.tsx

Line 153 in c19eea6

taxAmount={getTaxAmount(transaction, taxRates, Boolean(backTo || isEditing))}

App/src/pages/iou/request/step/IOURequestStepTaxAmountPage.tsx

Line 107 in c19eea6

if (amountInSmallestCurrencyUnits === TransactionUtils.getTaxAmount(transaction, false)) {

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

In here and here

To ensure consistency, we ought to utilize transactionDetails instead of transaction, as transactionDetails will reflect splitDraftTransaction when editing the split transaction

App/src/pages/iou/request/step/IOURequestStepTaxAmountPage.tsx

Line 74 in 6c9421f

const transactionDetails = ReportUtils.getTransactionDetails(isEditingSplitBill && !isEmptyObject(splitDraftTransaction) ? splitDraftTransaction : transaction);

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

We also manually use isEditingSplitBill ? splitDraftTransaction : transaction
