Visual Builder excel add-in - Read-only fields on layout

Summary:

Requirement is to have read-only fields on the layout as FYi for user and not allowed to update. However unchecking the field for update still allows user to edit the field and results in undesirable outcome on Upload.

Content (required):

All 3 options - Required for Create, Required for Update and Enabled for Update are set as disabled for the specific column.

  1. The user is still able to edit the field although it does not flag the Change indicator.
  2. Now after above action when user changes some other editable column on the same layout and clicks on Upload Data the upload is successful with the read only field blanked out. This is undesirable behaviour.

Howdy, Stranger!
