Account Move can be deleted when set to draft after posted

Question

Since Odoo 15, Account Move can be deleted when set to draft after posted
Before Odoo 15, This deleting a previously posted account move will show an error "You cannot delete an entry which has been posted once."
Why is this so? Is there a config to show the error again?

Hi,
You need to set a setting:
**Lock posted entries with hash None [1] ** To start using the hashing function, go to Accounting ‣ Configuration > Journals. Open the journal for which you want to activate the feature, go to the Advanced Settings tab, and enable Lock Posted Entries with Hash.
