  The SAP error message RESCSH024 indicates that a specific resource (in this case, identified by &1) is not active and is therefore being ignored in the context of a resource-related operation, such as scheduling or capacity planning. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's Resource Management or Capacity Planning modules.
  Cause:
  
  Inactive Resource: The resource you are trying to use (e.g., a machine, labor, or any other resource) is not active in the system. This could be due to it being deactivated or not properly configured.

  Activate the Resource:
  
  Go to the resource master data in SAP (transaction codes like CR01 for creating resources or CR02 for changing resources).
  Check the status of the resource and ensure it is set to active.
  If it is inactive, change the status to active and save your changes.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:

  Review Time Period Settings:
  
  Check if the resource is set to be inactive for the specific time period you are trying to use it. If so, adjust the availability settings accordingly.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help files related to resource management for any additional configuration steps that may be required.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, perform a test to ensure that the resource is now recognized as active and can be used in the desired operations.
