Hey @kartheek Lankipalli ,

You can limit what can be done on a ticket in a specific state using workflow properties.

I suggest reading the follow https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/workflow-properties-938847526.html

and specifically the 

• jira.issue.editable

• jira.permission.edit

properties.

This allow you to lock the issue on a specific status so people can no longer edit it except change the state.

If you also need to block the state you will need to look at conditions to allow only a subset of users/groups to transition the issue.

Hi @kartheek Lankipalli 

When you say "put a lock on" - what exactly do you mean?
