Unable to request a Name Change NR for a limited restored company #23332

Open Mihai-QuickSilverDev opened 1 week ago

Mihai-QuickSilverDev commented 1 week ago

For a company in limited restoration that is trying to convert to a full restoration, Name Request needs to allow the Name Change NR for that entity. Right now this is not happening - Name Request UI is only searching for historical companies. See insert below.

To Do List:

I don't think Business Search (which is used here) knows whether a business is in LR. It only knows if the business is Active or Historical.

Should we open up this search request (via parameters) to return all Active and Historical businesses?

Explanation

COLIN expects to use a Restoration NR to do a full restoration, limited restoration extension, or limited restoration conversion.

However, Namerequest UI will not find the limited restored NR because it looks for historical business -- and the subject business is no longer historical; it's active (for a limited time).

Potential Solution

Since Namerequest UI needs to behave differently in Prod (for COLIN purposes) and in Dev/Test (for BCROS purposes), we could create a feature flag for this.

What we're asking for is that, in Prod, Namerequest UI finds an active business (as well as historical businesses) when creating a restoration NR. This removes a "guard" we put in place (since it doesn't make sense to restore an active business, but COLIN wants it anyways). Are we OK with this?
