field like 'end date'
You can add the field only on the issue view screen. In this case the field will be only viewable. The other thing, which you have to keep in mind. The field will be visible on the view screen only if it has a value.
Can you send me screenshots?
How do you get to the option of creating a new field that can only be viewed?
You should create a different screen for the edit view screen and remove the required field from the screen and attach the screen to the screen scheme in the project. I attached a screenshot:
Kindly read the articles below:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiracloud/associating-screen-and-issue-operation-mappings-with-an-issue-type-776636504.html
I press on the buttom of 'Associate an issue operation with a screen' and choose the option 'Issue Operation' I choose 'View issue' and press 'OK'.
After that I define which fields will be just viewable, but in the end of this process nothing changes.
What am I not doing right?
There are three screens, which you can define for an issue: create, edit and view. If you have a filed only on the view screen and the field is not present on the edit screen, then you will not be able to edit the field.
What do you mean by nothing changes? You can still edit the field, can not you? If so, check that the filed is absent for the edit screen.
