[GIS] Cannot enable “Track Edits” on ArcGIS Online Feature Layer

arcgis-desktoparcgis-onlineeditingfeature-layer

I have a feature layer that is published to ArcGIS Online and being edited by users there. I am not able to enable "Track Edits" for this feature layer. Under the feature layer properties, when I click on "edit", check the "Track Edits" option and click save, the feature layer still shows Track Edits as being disabled.

I have previously been able to enable track edits for feature layers successfully but now it just won't enable. I've tried this on a couple feature layers and none of them allow me to enable track edits. Anyone out there experience this issue/know of a solution?

This screenshot shows where I enable "Track Edits" with a check mark.

This screenshot is what I see after clicking save on the previous image. Track Edits is disabled.

Synopsis

If the editor tracking fields (Creation Date, Creator, Last Edit Date, Editor) are present in a hosted feature service, Track Edits cannot be enabled on the feature service in ArcGIS Online.
