I am working on a low volume custom object that will act as a way to submit a request to SFDC. I want to have a field where I write a rule to populate the ID created in SFDC for a foreign key, but I want to make sure the field is not editable. How can I update the settings in data management to make a custom field read only?

+3+3For more reference - the fields they fill in are indicators if the form created a record in SFDC so that we can track using a foreign key to the SFDC record

On CTA layouts we can add fields and set some to be non-editable. This would be the same kind of functionality, but the admin can set at the actual field level which gives us much more control and security on our data

Anything new on this? It does break some of our processes to allow users to edit certain fields from our low volume object records.
