Currently, there is no separate permission to prevent editing manual entries. If the user has “Add Entries” permission, they can edit them after input.
Alternative Solution:
Grant the user “Create Only” permission, in which case:
-
They can create a new journal entry
-
They cannot view or edit any previous entries
Steps:
-
From Settings > Users
-
Select Manage Roles from the top left of the screen
-
Click “Edit” next to the role you want to modify
-
Enable only the “Create” permission next to Journal Entries
-
Save changes
Important Note:
-
If there is a need to develop a separate permission to prevent editing, it can be submitted as a technical suggestion
