Correct. You need to change your command to something like:

command -bar FN set nofoldenable | setl foldcolumn=0

Doing it this way, you can do:

:command1 | FN | command2 | command3

and it will work as expected.

Without it, you will need to:

:command1 | execute "FN" | command2 | command3

or avoid chaining commands together.

More details at :help :bar, where you can see that 'a user defined
command without the "-bar" argument" sees the '|' as part of their
arguments. Since your command accepts no arguments, you get a
"trailing characters" message.
