Adding system.debug statements to the code is a common and effective way to troubleshoot issues with Apex triggers. System.debug statements allow the developer to log messages, variables, or expressions to the debug log, which can be viewed in the Developer Console or other tools1. By adding system.debug statements at strategic points in the trigger code, the developer can track the execution flow, check the values of variables, and identify the root cause of the issue. Disabling the trigger in production is not a good practice, as it can affect the business logic and data integrity of the org2. Using the Apex Interactive Debugger is a powerful tool that allows the developer to set breakpoints, inspect variables, and execute code line by line, but it requires a paid license and a supported IDE3. Reviewing the Historical Event logs can provide useful information about the performance, security, and usage of the org, but it may not be sufficient to pinpoint the exact issue with the trigger4.
