Task column not editable in Project Server 2013 (PWA)

Question

Hello,
is that possible that Project's task column which are published on PWA cant be editable for any Project Manager, Team members?
We have  a scenario where my management team wants that after creating project from MS Project Professional 2013 (where we have provided standard template for projects to chose from ) needs to published on PWA. After publishing it, no one can't modify
task name in Projects but can add task if required.
Is it possible??

For the field:
Go to server settings, enterprise custom fields and lookup table,
Click on Create
Select task type, then formula,
Click on the field selector button and pickup the [task name] field under the text group,
Save.
For the view:
Go to the server settings, then manage views,
Select the view in question under "project" (for example tasks details)
In the field section, select your new field from the left side and add it to the right side,
Select the default task name field from the right side and remove it (it'll go to the left side),
Validate.
To validate:
Go to the project center and open your project,
Navigate to the schedule PDP and select your view tasks details)
Click on "edit" to open the project schedule,
Publish the project plan and check that your field is there and cannot be edited.
Hope this helps,
