I have created a new field but while checking in the form it is not editable. Read only check box is not selected. I also checked in UI policies and i didn't found anything. There were no client scripts on that table. What else I need to check?

Hello @dasv,
what about other fields on the same form - are that editable or non editable?
you can verify ACL written against the same table especially Table.*, if any, since if you have this existing then you might have to adjust ACL for new field.
Regards,
Nishant

since you said it's a new field are you sure no client script, UI policy is making it read-only?
any field level WRITE ACL is blocking?
If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

@dasv - I believe it is very likely that you have an existing write AC on all fields on that table (table_name.*) or a table-level one (table_name) and will need to create a new one (table_name.u_field_name) with an appropriate role for the new write permissions.
