you cant use workflow to make field read only.You can create UI script if xyz field is xxx then make field ready only. you can set xyz field value in workflow with xxx.

Hi,
can you explain your requirement? you cannot set a field to read-only from workflow; readonly can be set from client script, ui policy or from dictionary level
you can have a ui policy on the table with condition as state is approved; create UI policy action which sets that field as readonly

Hi Ankur,
I have a requirement that if a user doesn't fill up a form after 3 reminders of email that form should block. There is one If condition also to check between the current date and start date where start date is being fetched from the main flow and this form blocking has to be done in the subflow.
Can you please help me with how can form be blocked in this case? Since we can't make the fields ReadOnly in workflow then what will be the best practise here?
Thanks in Advance!
