Hey there!
On my test site, that is a placeholder text with the ability to type what I am wanting to change the SKU to in that field. Is that not the case on yours?
Are you able to type at all there? If you can type and it just doesn’t save, then it might be due to too much data being saved on the post.http://docs.WooCommerce .com/document/problems-with-large-amounts-of-data-not-saving-variations-rates-etc/.
In most cases, this gets resolved by simply increasing max_input_vars to something like 2000 or more. WP Max Submit Protect(http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-max-submit-protect/) is a great plugin you could use to determine how high it needs to be.
No, the field is greyed out and I cannot even change the text within the field. You can see this in the screenshot I linked.
Once I publish a product without the individual SKUs it auto-generates them. Then when I try to go back and edit or change the SKU it is grey out and it seems to be locked.
Thank you
From what you’re describing, it sounds like there’s conflict coming from one of your plugins or the theme you’re using.
To test whether that’s indeed the case: Are you still experiencing the same issue after deactivating all of your plugins (except WooCommerce) and switching to the default Twenty Nineteen theme?

We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved – if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
