✓ Lock your Odoo backend screen instantly and prevent unauthorized access during inactivity.

Odoo Web Screen Lock

Add a lightweight screen lock layer to the Odoo web client. Users can lock the screen from the top bar and unlock using a PIN on the same browser. Great for shared workplaces, front desks, warehouses, or any environment where a logged-in session should be protected when the user steps away. Supports auto-lock after inactivity via a configurable timeout.

Security Web Client PIN / Auto-Lock

What this module does

Adds a screen lock overlay to the Odoo web backend. When the screen is locked, Odoo interaction is blocked until the user unlocks it using the correct PIN. The PIN is stored per browser profile (local storage) and can be changed anytime. Optionally, the screen can be locked automatically after a period of inactivity, helping reduce the risk of unauthorized access when users leave their desks.

Instant Lock in Top Bar

A lock option is available in the web client top bar, allowing users to lock their session in one click.

PIN Setup & Unlock

Users set a PIN on first use and unlock the screen with the same PIN. PIN can be changed when needed.

Auto-Lock on Inactivity

Configure an inactivity timeout so the screen locks automatically after no user activity (mouse/keyboard).

Configuration

Enable auto-lock and set the inactivity timeout from Odoo settings.

Install Web Screen Lock module.
Go to Settings and locate the Screen Lock configuration.
Set the Auto-Lock Timeout (seconds) (set 0 to disable auto-lock).
Save settings and refresh the browser to apply changes.
Use the top bar lock option to Lock or Change PIN.
When locked, enter your PIN to unlock and continue working.

Note: The PIN is stored per browser profile (local storage). If you clear browser storage or use a different browser, you will need to set the PIN again.
