PR Review Report: AK.Server PR #112

Executive Summary

This PR adds IsEditable field/logic to KPI Detail entities in the PMS module. The implementation includes sophisticated business rules for editability based on hierarchy level and approval status, along with a comprehensive disapproval/resubmission flow that preserves audit history. The code demonstrates good database optimization practices with N+1 query elimination and proper async patterns.

Overall Assessment: Well-implemented feature with comprehensive test coverage and proper architecture patterns.

Database Optimization Analysis

✅ POSITIVE: N+1 Query Elimination

The repository implementation properly addresses N+1 query problems using batch queries:

Location: KPIDetailRepository.cs - PopulateIsEditableAsync method

// Batch query 1: Get all KPI IDs that have children (single query)
var idsWithChildren = await context.KPIDetails
    .Where(kd => kd.KPIParentId.HasValue && kpiIds.Contains(kd.KPIParentId.Value))
    .Select(kd => kd.KPIParentId!.Value)
    .Distinct()
    .ToListAsync();

// Batch query 2: Get all KPI IDs that have APPROVED children (single query)
var idsWithApprovedChildren = await context.KPIDetails
    .Where(kd => kd.KPIParentId.HasValue &&
                 kpiIds.Contains(kd.KPIParentId.Value) &&
                 kd.ApprovalStatus == AttendanceEnum.ApprovalTransactionStatus.Approved)
    .Select(kd => kd.KPIParentId!.Value)
    .Distinct()
    .ToListAsync();

Impact: Reduces query count from O(N) to O(2) for N KPIs.

✅ POSITIVE: Bulk Delete Implementation

Location: KPIDetailService.cs - DeleteBulkAsync method

// Bulk delete using ExecuteDeleteAsync for optimal performance
var idSet = new HashSet<Guid>(ids);
await context.KPIDetails
    .Where(k => k.Id != null && idSet.Contains(k.Id.Value))
    .ExecuteDeleteAsync();

Impact: Single round-trip deletion instead of N+1 individual deletes.

✅ POSITIVE: Batch Query in Auto-Cascade

Location: KPIDetailService.cs - AutoCascadeToFirstLevelAsync method

// Batch query to avoid N+1 problem: Get all existing KPIs for child positions
var existingKpiLookup = await context.KPIDetails
    .Where(k => k.JobPositionId.HasValue &&
                childJobPositionIds.Contains(k.JobPositionId.Value) &&
                k.Period == parentKpi.Period &&
                k.KPIId == parentKpi.KPIId)
    .Select(k => k.JobPositionId!.Value)
    .Distinct()
    .ToListAsync();

⚠️ MINOR: In-Memory Provider Check in Production Code

Location: KPIDetailService.cs - DeleteBulkAsync method

var isInMemory = context.Database.ProviderName?.Contains("InMemory") == true;
if (isInMemory)
{
    foreach (var kpiId in ids.AsEnumerable().Reverse())
    {
        await _repository.DeleteAsync(kpiId, context);
    }
    return;
}

Observation: The code contains test-environment-specific logic in production code. While functional, this indicates test/production divergence.

Recommendation: Consider if this can be handled through test configuration rather than runtime checks.


Business Logic Analysis

✅ IsEditable Rules - Well Defined

The implementation correctly implements the business rules:

Level Rule Implementation
Level 1 Editable unless any APPROVED children exist !idsWithApprovedChildrenSet.Contains(kpi.Id.Value)
Level 2-4 Editable unless has children OR is approved !hasChildren && !isApproved

Rationale: Level 1 can be edited while children are in draft state, but locks once any child is approved. Level 2-4 are more restrictive.

✅ Disapproval Flow (DRR-2026-02-24)

Sophisticated implementation preserving audit history:

  1. On Disapproval:

    • Original KPIs remain linked to disapproved transaction (history preserved)
    • Status set to Disapproved
    • New duplicated KPIs created with Status=None for editing
  2. On Resubmission:

    • Uses pre-duplicated KPIs instead of creating new ones
    • Links duplicated KPIs to new transaction
    • Preserves complete audit trail

Location: KPIDetailService.cs - DisapproveByEmployeeTransactionAsync and SubmitBatchForApprovalAsync

⚠️ MINOR: Complex Query in Resubmission Logic

Location: KPIDetailService.cs - SubmitBatchForApprovalAsync

var existingDisapprovedTransaction = await context.EmployeeTransactions
    .FirstOrDefaultAsync(et =>
        et.EmployeeId == firstKpi.EmployeeId &&
        et.TransactionType == AttendanceEnum.EmployeeTransactionType.KPI_APPROVAL &&
        et.NextLineNumber == 0 &&
        context.KPIDetails.Any(k => k.EmployeeTransactionId == et.Id && k.Period == firstKpi.Period));

Observation: Uses Any inside LINQ query which may have provider-specific translation behavior. Current implementation works with PostgreSQL.

Recommendation: Monitor for any EF Core query translation warnings.


Security Analysis

✅ No SQL Injection Vulnerabilities

All queries use parameterized LINQ/EF Core - no string concatenation in SQL.

✅ Authorization Check Present

Location: KPIDetailQuery.cs

[ModuleAccess("PMS")]
public async Task<IEnumerable<KPIDetail>> GetKPIDetailsForMonitoringAll(
    PersistenceContext context)

The [ModuleAccess("PMS")] attribute enforces module-level authorization.

⚠️ MINOR: Service Layer Role Comment

Location: KPIDetailService.cs - GetForMonitoringAllAsync

The comment states "Requires Admin, HR_Manager, or System_Admin role" but enforcement is at the GraphQL layer. This is acceptable if the attribute properly enforces these roles.

Recommendation: Ensure the [ModuleAccess] attribute or additional authorization filters enforce the specific role requirements.


Async Patterns Analysis

✅ Proper Async/Await Usage

All database operations correctly use async patterns:

Operation Pattern Status
Query execution ToListAsync()
Single result FirstOrDefaultAsync()
Bulk delete ExecuteDeleteAsync()
Save changes SaveChangesAsync()

✅ No Blocking Calls

No .Result, .Wait(), or .GetAwaiter().GetResult() patterns found.


Test Coverage Analysis

✅ Comprehensive Integration Tests

Repository Tests (6 new tests):

  • GetByJobPositionHierarchyAsync_Level1WithApprovedChildren_IsEditableFalse
  • GetByJobPositionHierarchyAsync_Level2WithChildren_IsEditableFalse
  • GetByJobPositionHierarchyAsync_Level4NoChildrenNotApproved_IsEditableTrue
  • GetByJobPositionHierarchyAsync_Level1WithoutApprovedChildren_IsEditableTrue
  • GetByJobPositionHierarchyAsync_ApprovedLevel2_IsEditableFalse
  • GetByJobPositionHierarchyAsync_PopulatesIsEditableForAllResults

Service Tests (10+ new tests):

  • Auto-cascade trigger tests (Add, Update, Delete)
  • Disapproval flow tests
  • Resubmission flow tests
  • Complete cycle tests
  • Multiple disapproval cycles

✅ Test Quality

  • Uses FluentAssertions
  • Realistic test data (not "test123")
  • Async/await properly used
  • Edge cases covered
  • Both positive and negative cases

Code Quality Issues

🔶 MEDIUM: Recursive Descendant Collection

Location: KPIDetailService.cs - CollectAllDescendantIdsAsync

private async Task<List<Guid>> CollectAllDescendantIdsAsync(Guid parentId, PersistenceContext context)
{
    var descendantIds = new List<Guid>();
    var children = await _repository.GetChildrenAsync(parentId, context);

    foreach (var child in children)
    {
        if (child.Id.HasValue)
        {
            var grandChildIds = await CollectAllDescendantIdsAsync(child.Id.Value, context); // Recursive
            descendantIds.AddRange(grandChildIds);
            descendantIds.Add(child.Id.Value);
        }
    }
    return descendantIds;
}

Risk: Recursive approach could cause stack overflow with very deep hierarchies. However, given KPI levels are limited to 1-4, this is unlikely to be an issue in practice.

Recommendation: Consider adding a max depth check or converting to iterative approach for future-proofing.

🔶 LOW: Null Check Redundancy

Location: KPIDetailService.cs - DeleteBulkAsync

.Where(k => k.Id != null && idSet.Contains(k.Id.Value))

The k.Id != null check is correct but the HashSet already handles this through the Contains check. This is minor and doesn't affect functionality.

Prioritized Recommendations

🔶 MEDIUM Priority

  1. Consider iterative approach for descendant collection
    • File: KPIDetailService.cs
    • Location: CollectAllDescendantIdsAsync method
    • Rationale: While current recursion depth is limited (4 levels), iterative approach is more robust

🔷 LOW Priority

  1. Document role enforcement for monitoring endpoint

    • File: KPIDetailService.cs
    • Location: GetForMonitoringAllAsync method
    • Rationale: Ensure [ModuleAccess("PMS")] enforces Admin/HR_Manager/System_Admin roles
  2. Consider removing in-memory provider check from production code

    • File: KPIDetailService.cs
    • Location: DeleteBulkAsync method
    • Rationale: Test-specific logic in production code indicates test/production divergence

Next Steps

Required Actions Before Merge

  • Review recursive descendant collection approach (MEDIUM)
  • Verify [ModuleAccess("PMS")] enforces required roles (LOW)

Suggested Post-Merge

  • Monitor query performance in production
  • Consider adding metrics/logging for disapproval/resubmission cycles

Cross-Stack Impact

N/A - Single Stack Change

This PR only affects the Backend (PMS module). No cross-stack dependencies identified.


Learning & Memory Updates

Patterns to Remember

  1. N+1 Elimination Pattern: Using batch queries with HashSet<Guid> for O(1) lookups
  2. Bulk Delete Pattern: Using ExecuteDeleteAsync() for single-round-trip deletions
  3. Audit Trail Pattern: Duplicating entities on disapproval to preserve history while allowing edits

Technical Insights

  • EF Core's ExecuteDeleteAsync provides significant performance gains for bulk operations
  • HashSet-based lookups in memory are efficient for parent-child relationship checks
  • The disapproval/resubmission pattern preserves audit trail without soft deletes
