Proposal

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

Track tax feature is still available when Taxes feature is disabled offline

What is the root cause of that problem?

We are using isDistanceTrackTaxEnabled to determine if we should display tax features for

• Tax rates https://github.com/Expensify/App/blob/29fb6bba4cdff75247ee52154359c6925a2390c9/src/pages/workspace/distanceRates/PolicyDistanceRateDetailsPage.tsx#L140-L142
• Tax reclaimable https://github.com/Expensify/App/blob/29fb6bba4cdff75247ee52154359c6925a2390c9/src/pages/workspace/distanceRates/PolicyDistanceRateDetailsPage.tsx#L157-L159
• Track tax https://github.com/Expensify/App/blob/29fb6bba4cdff75247ee52154359c6925a2390c9/src/pages/workspace/distanceRates/PolicyDistanceRatesSettingsPage.tsx#L140-L142

When user disable tax rate in offline mode, we are not optimistialy updating isDistanceTrackTaxEnabled (policy?.customUnits.customUnitID.customUnit?.attributes?.taxEnabled) to false as we do for isPolicyTrackTaxEnabled (policy?.tax?.trackingEnabled)

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

We should check also for isPolicyTrackTaxEnabled in the above places where we are using isDistanceTrackTaxEnabled, since isPolicyTrackTaxEnabled updated optimistically.

 <Switch
     isOn={isDistanceTrackTaxEnabled && isPolicyTrackTaxEnabled}

We will do the same for tax rates, and tax reclaimable as well

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

We can optimistially update isDistanceTrackTaxEnabled (policy?.customUnits.customUnitID.customUnit?.attributes?.taxEnabled) to false (enabled) in optimistic data, and to true (!enalbled) in failure data here

Some more details about creating optimistic customUnits data

```javascript const policy = getPolicy(policyID); const shouldAddDefaultTaxRatesData = (!policy?.taxRates || isEmptyObject(policy.taxRates)) && enabled; const customUnits = policy?.customUnits ?? {}; const customUnit = customUnits[Object.keys(customUnits)[0]]; const customUnitID = customUnit?.customUnitID ?? ''; ```

        {
            onyxMethod: Onyx.METHOD.MERGE,
            key: `${ONYXKEYS.COLLECTION.POLICY}${policyID}`,
            value: {
                customUnits: {
                    [customUnitID]: {
                        ...customUnit,
                        attributes: {
                            ...customUnit.attributes,
                            taxEnabled: customUnit.attributes.taxEnabled ? enabled : customUnit.attributes.taxEnabled,
                        },
                    },
                },
                tax: {
                    trackingEnabled: enabled,

We check for customUnit.attributes.taxEnabled to prevent assigning true to isDistanceTrackTaxEnabled and enabling Track Tax feature when the user enables tax rate on more features page but didn't enable Track Tax on DistanceRatesSettings page
