Hi @ABHI08 ,
Create a onchange client script on that particular field.
if (oldValue && oldValue !== newValue) {
g_form.setReadOnly('your_field_name', true);
Above script ensures that once a field’s value differs from its stored oldValue, it will make field read only immediately.
Try this once and let me know. If you find this helpful, please accept this as a solution and hit the helpful button..

It is making the field read only for the time being when the field value is changed but after saving the form it again becomes editable. I want the field to be editable after the change occured for the first time

Hi @ABHI08 ,
Can you try to describe your requirement a little deeper than what you have done? What is the business case that you have?
