Question

As Steven mentioned, there is no straightforward way to do so. On top of the suggestions raised, you can also use these workarounds:

* Add this field on Create screen so the reporter would add. Don't show the field on View screens. 
* Then copy the value from this field into a different new custom field with a post function on Create transition. 
* Show only that copied custom field in the View screens.
* If you like, you can add the Due Date field in a new tab called Admin or something like that (users don't usually navigate to other tabs) and there you can have the original field for admins to edit.

There's no explicit way to do this. Perhaps you could do something like this –

* For your Screen Scheme – * Set the Due Date field on the Create and View Operations
* Do NOT set the Due Date field on the Edit Operation

* On the Workflow – 
* Add a New Transition Origin: Any Status; Destination: Itself
* Name it Edit Due Date
* Add a Screen with just the Due Date field
* Set a Transition Condition for Project Role - Administrator
