Additional Information

This issue occurs when editor tracking is enabled on a hosted feature layer and a field is subsequently deleted. The deletion process incorrectly includes editor tracking fields (Editor, EditDate, Creator, CreateDate) when updating database triggers, causing the "Invalid column name" error and preventing subsequent edits to the layer. This behavior affects layers where editor tracking has been enabled and fields have been removed after the tracking was configured.

Workaround

Enable and disable sync on the feature layer.
