Sort List of objects by date and applying filter

I have list of Payments:

Payment 1
  CountyTaxAmount = 250.00
  CityTaxAmount   = 101.00
  LienAmount      = 0.00
  HazardAmount    = 0.00
  PaymentDueDate  = "2018-06-01"

Payment 2
  CountyTaxAmount = 10.00
  CityTaxAmount = 20.00
  LienAmount      = 0.00
  HazardAmount    = 0.00
  PaymentDueDate = "2018-05-01"

I created a function that takes in this list and currentDueDate. If paymentDueDate is equal to or before currentDueDate and one that's closest to currentDueDate, I want to use that row in my calculations.

For some reason my sort is not working properly. Can someone shed some light on what I am doing wrong. Here is my code:

private EscrowStatusEnum determineEscrowStatus(Payment pcm, LocalDate currentDueDate) {
    EscrowStatusEnum escrowStatus = null;

    if(currentDueDate!= null && pcm!=null 
            && pcm.getPayment() != null 
            && !pcm.getPayment().isEmpty()) {

        Predicate<Payment> pcmRow = 
                it->it.getPaymentDueDate()!=null && !it.getPaymentDueDate().isAfter(currentDueDate);

        final Payment sortedRow = 
                pcm.getPayment().stream().sorted((el1, el2) -> el1.getPaymentDueDate().compareTo(el2.getPaymentDueDate())).
                filter(pcmRow).findFirst().orElse(null);

        if(sortedRow != null) {

            BigDecimal countyCityLienHazardSum = sortedRow.getCountyTaxAmount().add(sortedRow.getCityTaxAmount()).add(sortedRow.getLienAmount()).add(sortedRow.getHazardAmount());
            BigDecimal countyCityLienSum = sortedRow.getCountyTaxAmount().add(sortedRow.getCityTaxAmount()).add(sortedRow.getLienAmount());

            if(countyCityLienHazardSum.compareTo(BigDecimal.ZERO) == 0)
                escrowStatus = EscrowStatusEnum.NONESCROWED;
            else if(countyCityLienSum.compareTo(BigDecimal.ZERO) > 0 && sortedRow.getHazardAmount().compareTo(BigDecimal.ZERO) == 0 ||
                    countyCityLienSum.compareTo(BigDecimal.ZERO) >= 0 && sortedRow.getHazardAmount().compareTo(BigDecimal.ZERO) > 0)
                escrowStatus = EscrowStatusEnum.ESCROWED;
        }
    }

    return escrowStatus;
}

When I pass in currentDueDate of "2018-06-01", I want my code to return Payment 1.

Currently it is returning Payment 2.

If I remove Payment 2 from my tests, then it returns Payment 1.

So something must be wrong with sort.

Your sort returns the earliest date. What you want is the latest date that is earlier than the cutoff.

To find the smallest or largest value in a stream, don't use sort(...).findFirst(). Use max or min instead. In your case:

sortedRow = pcm.getPayment().stream()
               .filter(pcmRow)
               .max(Comparator.comparing(Payment::getPaymentDueDate))
               .orElse(null);   // not relevant to your question but consider not using nulls so much

The problem is in the filter:

!it.getPaymentDueDate().isAfter(currentDueDate)

This allows the payment due date to be the same as the current due date, but you only want overdue payments.

Change it to this:

it.getPaymentDueDate().isBefore(currentDueDate)
