Probably a write ACL on those fields needed. Are you using Kingston? if yes, make sure they are not part of

I have had this issue before.
It is resolved by creating 'save_as_template' field level ACL's for those affected fields.

For each field that is showing as read-only:
- Elevate security so you can modify ACLs (in dev of course)
- For every field showing read-only in the template
- Create a new ACL
- Set operation to "save_as_template"
- Set table to Change Request and field as required
- Add role 'itil'
Note that this will allow all users to modify this field in templates but it should fix your issue
