Description

We discussed that here and there and I though I had a wish for it but I can't find it...

There are several cases where enforcing items protection and make sure they will never be altered is critical; Orders, Invoices, Accounting, over the years test or comparisons, etc.

While Admins can prevent and item to be edited a trackeritem can be altered by Tiki code actions; linked item modification, indexing, cascading actions, etc. There are many possibility an item is altered and neutralizing all does look possible (and you need to avoid using several of good Tiki features like not using tracker status).

I would like to see a new option for the tracker status, lock the values of closed items, so Items with the "Close" status can't be altered anymore no matter what. (unless status is changed of course ?)

When that new switch is turned on, we could see a short notice on "Cascade actions", "Re-calculation event" and other tracker fields options to warn the admin that this option won't affect closed items. (awareness)
