How to allow inline editing for only one field in a Dashboard list?

Hi all,

I would like to allow inline editing for only one specific field in a list displayed on a Dashboard, while keeping all other fields read-only.

The list already supports inline editing by default. My requirement is:

  • Only one field (for example, u_comment) should be editable inline

  • All other fields should not be editable inline

  • The application itself must still have full CRUD access (create, read, update, delete)

I am considering controlling this using ACLs (table-level and field-level write ACLs).

However, since the same table is also accessed by an application that performs create/update/delete operations, I need to ensure:

  • Application access remains fully functional

  • Inline editing from the Dashboard is restricted to only one field

Has anyone implemented a similar requirement?
Is ACL the recommended approach, or is there a better practice for this scenario?

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks!
