Lock requests once converted to a project

@ewanh 

This is the main problem for us when users comment on the original request vs the converted project. Any comment or document that has been added does not show up in the converted project and often gets missed. 

My thought here is that when they request comes in, any documents or comments that have originally been added convert, but once converted, a locked request would no longer allow a document or comment to be added.

With the option for a system admin to unlock if necessary, this would allow any changes to this form to be requested through the system admin, but would provide that safety net that nothing gets missed once converted. 

Out of curiosity...When you lock a request, what would you want to happen with any updates to the original request (regardless whether the update is made by email or integration or on the object directly)?  

Yes! I put this Idea in the old Workfront One in 2020 so would love to get movement on this again.

I generally like this idea but would absolutely need the ability for Sys Admin or PM to be able to unlock the issue to make changes. We do run into instances, more often than you would think, where we want to update both the resolving project and the issue.

I'd even be fine with Sys Admin ability to unlock, then anyone to make changes, and Sys Admin to re-lock.

Yes! This has always been a pain point.  We like to keep the original request (issue) to monitor how long it takes for people to fill out the proper forms to even become a project so we like to have that history, but once it becomes a project it would be amazing to have an option to lock it after conversion because people find it and put stuff in there and no one sees it.  

Hi,

It works quite good in present scenario. In addition, once we convert to a project and the possibility (to choose, link / not link) to lock request. Plus, it is locked, then request must shows the planned completion date of project as planned completion date of request created. This should be changed to automatically or we can make it as option to choose.

Best regards,
