Dear PSB,
This is not really a bug, it's just one of SharePoint quirks and how it processes forms. If the field is set to readonly, SharePoint considers field inactive and empty on submit, so you just need to manually set all readonly fields to editable when you submit the form, just add this to JS editor:

Code: Select all

fd.onsubmit(function () {
  fd.field('Test').readonly(false);
  return true;
});
