  The SAP error message OQ802, which states "Correction of Table &1 for new fields failed," typically occurs during the activation of a transport request or when trying to implement a change that involves adding new fields to a database table. This error indicates that the system encountered an issue while trying to update the database schema to accommodate the new fields.
  Causes:
  
  Database Locking Issues: The table may be locked by another process, preventing the system from making the necessary changes.
  Inconsistent Data: There may be existing data in the table that conflicts with the new fields being added.
  Transport Issues: The transport request may not have been properly created or may be missing necessary components.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the change may not have the necessary authorizations to modify the table.

  Technical Issues: There could be underlying technical issues with the database or the SAP system itself.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check for Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the table. If locks are found, you may need to wait for the locks to be released or contact the user holding the lock.
