Non-Editable attributes

Objective

As a venture I want to block Sellers from editing chosen Product Attributes after they have been synchronised to Shop.

Feature Setup

Critical KnowledgeIf you want to enable Non-editable attributes, please raise a TMLSD ticket. The parameter that needs to be enabled is product/attributes/editable.

Attributes will be blocked from edition only when products have been synchronised to Shop.

By default the ACL for blocking edition is not configured to backend user role(s), this needs to be setup via Permissions Control.
