What causes this issue?

The table was activated, but errors were found in at least one of the
dependent tables. The table causing the errors is thus given the status
partially active, as are the faulty dependent tables.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Correct the errors in the dependent tables and activate them. Then
reactivate the table causing the errors. After this activation run, all
tables involved should have the status "active".

DT057 - Details

• The SAP error message DT057 indicates that there is an issue with the activation of a table, specifically that the table in question (denoted as &) was activated, but there are errors in dependent tables. This typically occurs during the activation of database objects in the ABAP Dictionary.
  
  Cause:
  
  Dependent Tables: The table you are trying to activate has dependent tables that have not been activated successfully. This can happen if there are inconsistencies or errors in the definitions of these dependent tables.
  Data Dictionary Issues: There may be issues in the Data Dictionary, such as missing foreign key relationships, incorrect data types, or other inconsistencies.
  Transport Issues: If the table was transported from another system, there may be inconsistencies due to missing objects or dependencies that were not transported correctly.
  Database Constraints: There may be constraints at the database level that prevent the activation of the dependent tables.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Activation Logs: Review the activation logs
