Why are System Administrators Able to Edit fields Marked as Read-Only on the CRM Page Layout?

  • Updated

Question:

Why are System Administrators able to edit fields marked as Read-only on the page layout?

Answer:

Under Administrative Permissions on the System Administrator profile, there is a setting called Edit Read Only Fields.  If this is marked as True, any user that belongs to the System Administrator profile is able to edit Read Only fields.  If the System Administrator profile is ever cloned, this setting carries over to the new profile.
