Configure a read-only field that is mapped to the database

Read-only text

A Read-only Text field displays a text value from the OSM database that cannot be edited by the user.

All Datasource fields starting with WO and WP will insert a single value into the form.

However, the list items can display multiple values in the form. See Configure a list field that is mapped to the database.

Mapped to datasource

The field must be mapped to a logical field in the OSM database.
