New Feature: Lock Skills in Role Templates

We’ve introduced the ability to lock skills in role templates. This allows you to define non-editable skills directly at the template level. When a skill is locked, it cannot be modified or removed in roles created from that template. Here is how it works:

1. Lock Skills in a Template

Navigate to a Role Template → Required Skills. You’ll see a new “Locked” toggle next to each skill.

Activate the toggle for any skill you want to enforce. Changes are applied immediately.

2. Bulk Lock Skills

You can select multiple skills and use the bulk action bar to lock them in one step. You can also use Lock All to enforce the entire skill set of a template.

3. Enforcement in Created Roles

When a role is created from a template with locked skills:

  • Locked skills cannot be deleted
  • Required proficiency cannot be modified
  • The delete option is hidden
  • The proficiency control is disabled

Unlocked skills remain fully editable.
