Proposal

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

• Newly created Task's get's hidden id not commented.

What is the root cause of that problem?

• shouldReportBeInOptionList function return's false when a thread is not commented and as a task is treated as thread, its causing the issues in report's list which are provided by getOrderedReportIDs function.

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

• We should check if the thread is a Task then don't hide the report.

App/src/libs/ReportUtils.js

Lines 2022 to 2024 in cb7988c

	if (isThread(report) && !report.lastMessageText) {
	return false;
	}

Like this:

if (isThread(report) && !report.lastMessageText && !isTaskReport(report)) {

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)
