The Estimated Revenue field on the header will need to be read only. It will be populated by updating another field. On the preview form it appears to be read only, however once the form is published, the system is refreshed, the Estimated Revenue field is NOT read only. I have a business rule in place to lock the field but that doesn't seem to work. How can this remain a read only field at all times?

I was able to get it working.
Thank you for all your advise!
Try this Business Rule:
If Est. Revenue contains data
Lock Est. Revenue
If Revenue = User Provided
Lock Est. Revenue
I tried that as well. The Est. Revenue field still has the same issue. Everything functions as it should with a newly created field regardless of where it is on the form (header or body).
Basically the field can be unlocked until data is entered. Then it needs be locked and remain locked. We have a workflow set up to update this field when an amount is entered via a project estimation (which is a subgrid on the form). I testing everything out using a newly created field and it all functions as it's supposed to. I just don't know why it won't work with the Estimated Revenue field.
Isn't the estimated revenue a mandatory field? In such case, when it is not filled, it is probably be set to editable, in case it is empty on save.
I had this issue e.g. when trying to hide the Default Name field on a custom entity and it always was displayed on save, because it was empty. So I had to Create some JS to populate a Name on save.
How do you populate the estimated revenue field?

Valid question, and yes everything is active
I have already tried that and the field does not remain locked once everything has been published.
Hi
Could you please make a field read only and publish form in IE?
