Field C = A+B</p>
<p>We want to have Field C like createdtime, modfiedtime. It's
calculated with WF, after save,.... and we don't need display this

detailview.<br>

<div dir="ltr">If we add a readonly field, we can not update
its value using API, we need to do a direct database query.
And hence updates are not tracked neither workflows can be
set.

</div>
<div>Ideally one would expect the readonly fields to be
available in workflows and that we can update its value
via API, such as in an event handler to keep a count of
Opportunities in Contacts.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If we had support from workflows, it would be so easy,
but currently we need to implement code for that. Also for
what has to happen next, such as if count is greater than
a certain number!</div>
