• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GT125 - Inactive nametab for & activated successfully ?

  The SAP error message GT125, which states "Inactive nametab for & activated successfully," typically occurs when there is an attempt to activate a nametab (name table) that is not currently active in the system. This can happen in various contexts, such as when working with data elements, domains, or other objects that rely on nametabs for their definitions.
  Cause:
  
  Inactive Nametab: The primary cause of this error is that the nametab you are trying to activate is not active in the system. Nametabs are used to define the names and descriptions for fields in the data dictionary.
