Sale Order Manual Lock

This module makes the lock and unlock actions on a sale order available to users directly, without depending on the automatic sale order locking configuration.

In standard Odoo, the buttons that lock or unlock a sale order are only shown to users who belong to the group that controls automatic locking. This module removes that group restriction on the sale order form, so the lock and unlock controls are visible to users in general.

• It changes the sale order form screen (sale.order), the same screen where quotations and sales orders are created and confirmed.
• The lock and unlock buttons become available independently of the automatic locking setting.
• No new menus, reports, emails, scheduled jobs or automatic computations are added by this module.
• No new models or fields are introduced; it only adjusts the visibility of existing lock/unlock actions on the sale order form.

Because the module only alters the form view, the actual locking behaviour itself still comes from the standard Sales application. The module simply makes the manual lock and unlock option reachable for users who would otherwise not see it.
