Unable to 'Preserve Global ID' while using Append tool on a feature service.

Hello all,

I am trying to append the data through a feature service with 'Preserve GlobalID' option checked. While executing the Append tool in ArcGIS Pro, we receive warnings and data does not append.

The append tool works on feature service, if 'Preserve Global ID' option is unchecked.

----Tried the workaround mentioned in the article below but received the same warnings.

https://support.esri.com/en-us/knowledge-base/how-to-preserve-global-ids-when-using-the-append-tool-i-000028238

----Tested this process where the Input feature class was in File geodatabase/ enterprise geodatabase/ mobile geodatabase.

-----ArcGIS Pro 2.9.9 + ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9 + SQL Server 2019

----Append tool Parameters:

Input Dataset : File geodatabase/ enterprise geodatabase/ mobile geodatabase.

Target Dataset: Feature service

---The tool fails with the warnings :

It would greatly assist us if you could offer some suggestions on this matter.

Thanks.
