Hi Andrew,
I thought the CANAUTONUM field would get set to read only if the that field was flagged as an auto number field the Organization setup. The PLUSCTEMPLATE.TEMPLATEID is the same as ASSET.TEMPLATEID, which has a default autonumber setup at the System Level.
I think that's where a bug is present, because while the field is capable of being set to an autonumber, the main table ASSET is set to SITE level, but the templates are being set to SYSTEM level.

Subject: Why is Can Autonumber attribute set to be read-only for some key fields?
Does anyone know the logic for why the attribute MAXATTRIBUTECFG.CANAUTONUM is set to read-only for existing attributes. Is it that it can only be set on User Defined fields?
For example, in an Asset Template the key field PLUSCTEMPLATE.TEMPLATEID has Can Autonumber unchecked, and it is read-only.
