This error typically arises in the context of SAP Fiori or SAP Gateway services, particularly when dealing with the configuration of OData services or Fiori applications.
  Cause:
  
  Inactive Version: The service or configuration you are trying to use has an inactive version. This can happen if the service was modified but not activated or if the last deployment was unsuccessful.
  Faulty Deployment: The deployment of the service may have encountered issues, leading to an incomplete or faulty version being marked as the last deployed version.
  Transport Issues: If the service was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to quality assurance), there may have been issues during the transport process that left the service in an inactive state.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Activate the Service:
  
  Go to the SAP Gateway Service Builder (transaction code /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE).
  Check the status of the service in question. If it is inactive, activate it.
  If you have made changes to the service, ensure that you activate the latest version.

  If you find issues, you may need to redeploy the service or correct any errors in the service definition.
  
  
  
  Re-transport the Service:
  
  If the service was transported, ensure that the transport request was completed successfully.
  If necessary, re-transport the service from the source system to the target system.
