Everybody was OOO, so I assigned 10 random eligible people.

Putting Deploy blocker label, because production doesn't have Request Money option on Workspace chat.

Not a blocker, we just added the request money option in the workspace chat: #16670
@luacmartins do we need to update the tests in the testRail so Applause does not flag this as a bug?

@kbecciv this is being actively worked on as Part of the manual requests

This is behind beta so its ok the flow is not complete yet, i think we should wait for testrail changes until we finish most of the Mannual request project which will allow employees to submit expenses in the workspace chat.

I would close this issue in the meantime, there is no bug here

@mountiny Great, thank your for explanation.
