Shortcodes are case-sensitive, so you should:

• Use [Edit_field Field="Email_1"]

• And not [Edit_Field Field="Email_1"]

Because you defined the shortcode as add_shortcode('Edit_field', 'Edit_field'); — note the first Edit_field, where the f is in lowercase.

Secondly, WordPress converts the shortcode attributes to lowercase, so the $Field in your case will be undefined and therefore, you should use $field instead.

However, please just avoid using extract() and use the $atts instead to access the shortcode attributes:

function Edit_field( $atts ) {
    $atts = shortcode_atts( array(
        'field' => '',
    ), $atts );

    if ( $atts['field'] == 'Email_1' ) {
        return $_POST['Edit_Email_1'] ?? 'NA';
    }

    if ( $atts['field'] == 'Client_Description' ) {
        return $_POST['Edit_Client_Description'] ?? 'NA';
    }
}

Additionally, always check if the POST variable is actually set:

// Example for the Edit_Email_1 variable:
return isset( $_POST['Edit_Email_1'] ) ? $_POST['Edit_Email_1'] : 'NA'; // use this
return $_POST['Edit_Email_1'] ?? 'NA'; // or like I used in the above function, using PHP 7 format
