Odoo Website Helpdesk Lock System is an Odoo module that lets a helpdesk user lock a support ticket. A locked ticket stays with one person, so a single agent handles the whole thread with the customer.
The agent opens a ticket in the Helpdesk app and clicks the Lock button on the ticket form. A confirmation box asks whether to lock the ticket, and the lock applies after the agent clicks Ok.
A locked ticket keeps its details safe until an allowed user releases the lock. Other users who try to save an edit get a warning that names the agent holding the lock.
Unlock rights stay with a small group: the agent who placed the lock, the Odoo administrator, and Manager users. When another user clicks Unlock, Odoo refuses the action and asks them to contact the administrator.
Every ticket form gets a Lock Information tab that records who holds the lock and who last released it. Odoo shows each name with the date and time of the action for tracking.
This lock module works on top of the ticket system from Odoo Website Helpdesk & Support System, so you need to install that module first.

Edit Protection

Why Do We Need Odoo Website Helpdesk Lock System?
Odoo Website Helpdesk Lock System solves a common problem where several users change the same support ticket at once.
When more than one agent replies on a long ticket thread, the customer gets mixed answers. Small edits by different people also cause delays and poor customer service.
The module lets one agent lock the ticket and keep the conversation in one place. Other users can still open the ticket, but they cannot change it while the lock stays on.
A Manager can still step in when a ticket needs to move, and Odoo first shows a message that names the current locker and asks the Manager to confirm the unlock.
Also, if you want to show your support teams and their members on the website, you can check our extension Odoo Website Helpdesk & Support Teams.

Block Changes to a Locked Ticket
Other users cannot change a locked helpdesk ticket until an allowed user releases the lock. Odoo stops the save and shows a warning instead of updating the record.

- Show a warning that names the agent who currently holds the lock.
- Tell the unauthorised user to contact the administrator for access.
- Keep every field unchanged until an allowed user releases the lock.
Unlock a Ticket with Restricted Access
Only three kinds of users can unlock a locked helpdesk ticket: the original locker, the Odoo admin, or a Manager. Any other user who clicks Unlock gets an error from Odoo.
- Click the Unlock button on a locked ticket to release the lock.
- Let the original locker release the lock on the ticket at any time.
- Allow an administrator or Manager to release a lock held by another user.
- Show a confirmation that names the locker before a Manager unlocks the ticket.
- Refuse the unlock for any other user with a not-authorised warning.
Ticket Lock Information Tab
Lock Information tab on the ticket form stores the lock history of each helpdesk ticket. Team leads can see who locked and unlocked a ticket and when it happened.
- Open the Lock Information tab to view the Ticket Lock Information section.
- Check the Currently Locked By field for the user who holds the lock.
- See the Currently Locked Date with the date and time of the lock.
- Check the Last Unlocked By field for the user who last unlocked the ticket.
