When a field is deleted, but is used in a report, then the report errors out, but the field is no longer visible in the interface, so the report is basically unrevivable. (Screenshot: https://cl.ly/1X3C3U1X2r0P) A deleted field should prevent the report from running, but I should be able to salvage the report without creating a complete replacement. Thankfully, this particular report isn't used in any Dashboards or CoPilot outreaches.

Hi Seth, Sorry for the inconvenience. This is a valid use-case,this issue exists from long back and it is added to our product backlog.

As a workaround, you could make some change to the effected report ,save it and refresh the report.Now it starts working again(Once it starts working you can revert your change) . 

Thanks for posting.
