Introduction

This Odoo module introduces a secure ticket locking mechanism within the helpdesk system, enabling support users, technicians, or managers to lock a ticket when working on it. By restricting edits to a single user, it ensures continuity, avoids confusion, and maintains clear ownership of ticket resolution. Only the original locker, the admin, or a manager can unlock the ticket—improving accountability and reducing conflicts in ticket handling workflows 

Key Features

  • Lock a helpdesk ticket for exclusive editing by the locking user

  • Restrict unlocking capability to the locking user, admin, or manager

  • Display lock information, including who locked/unlocked the ticket and when

  • Prevent other users from modifying a ticket while it is locked

  • Lightweight and effective integration for helpdesk workflow control

Benefits

  • Prevents multiple support users from editing the same ticket simultaneously

  • Ensures clear accountability and ownership during ticket handling

  • Reduces miscommunication and improves response accuracy

  • Strengthens ticket workflow management with secure edit control

  • Enhances support operations with professional locking functionality
