This error typically occurs in the context of Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) or similar modules where objects must be activated before they can be deactivated.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the object you are attempting to deactivate is either:
  
  Not Activated: The object has never been activated, or it has been activated but is currently in a different status (e.g., 'Inactive', 'Deleted', etc.).
  Incorrect Status: The object may have been modified or is in a transitional state that does not allow for deactivation.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:

  Review Dependencies:
  
  Check if there are any dependencies or linked objects that might be preventing the deactivation. If other objects rely on the one you are trying to deactivate, you may need to address those dependencies first.
