What This App Does Not Do
Read this before you buy. Everything below is something the app deliberately leaves to another app or to you.
Restricting who may edit a category is an access-rights decision.
Odoo applies a new policy going forward; this tells you when it started.
Earlier changes were never recorded.
The chatter stays readable, which is the point.
