Hi,

ACLs evaluated server side and most secure way of restricting access to fields. UI Policy execute on form and on client side (Browser). 

  • If ACL is restricting the write access then UI Policy will have no control over that field. UI Policy cannot make that field editable.
  • If ACL is not restricting the write access then you could further use UI Policy to make field readonly/editable.
