@lschurr I haven't added the External label as I wasn't 100% sure about this issue. Please take a look and add the label if you agree it's a bug and can be handled by external contributors.

We think this issue might be related to the #collect project.

I asked for help with the setup to reproduce this in #expensify-open-source, but @izarutskaya if you can update your repro steps to include setting up the accounts to get the Pay Elsewhere button, that'd be helpful! Thanks

I couldn't reproduce on staging with the pay elsewhere button. For some reason the expense report chat looks like it's archived from the payer's account, and I'm not sure if that's because I'm using different steps or a different setup, but the UI looks fine
