  The SAP error message "D-101 Table & does not exist in active form" typically indicates that the system is trying to access a database table that is not available in the active version of the database. This can occur for several reasons, and here are some common causes, solutions, and related information:
  Causes:
  
  Table Not Activated: The table may not have been activated in the system. This can happen if the table was recently created or modified and the activation process was not completed.
  Transport Issues: If the table was transported from a development environment to a production environment, there may have been issues during the transport process that prevented the table from being activated.
  Database Issues: There may be issues with the underlying database that prevent the table from being accessed.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the table, leading to the perception that it does not exist.
  Incorrect Table Name: The table name referenced in the error message may be incorrect or misspelled.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Activate the Table: If the table is newly created or modified, ensure that it is activated in the Data Dictionary (SE11). You can do this by navigating to the table definition and clicking on the "Activate" button.
  Check Transport Logs: If the table was transported, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that may indicate why the table was not activated.
  Database Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check on the database to ensure that all tables are correctly defined and accessible. This can be done using transaction codes like SE14 (Database Utility).
  Check Authorizations: Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the table. This can be done by checking the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU01.
  Verify Table Name: Double-check the table name in the error message to ensure it is correct. If it is incorrect, update the code or configuration that references the table.
