  The SAP error message RS_B4H_PREPARE_APD009: Query is not active typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BW/4HANA when you are trying to execute a query that is not currently active. This can happen for several reasons, and here are some common causes, solutions, and related information:
  Causes:
  
  Query Not Activated: The query may not have been activated after changes were made to it. In SAP BW, queries need to be activated to be executed.
  Transport Issues: If the query was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), it may not have been activated in the target system.
  Data Source Issues: The underlying data source for the query may not be active or may have issues that prevent the query from being executed.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the query may not have the necessary authorizations to access the query or the underlying data.
  Query Deletion: The query may have been deleted or is in a state that prevents it from being executed.
  
  Solutions:

  Go to the Query Designer (transaction code RSRT or BEx Query Designer).
  Open the query in question and check if it is active. If not, activate it.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Status:
  
  If the query was transported, ensure that it has been activated in the target system. You can check the transport logs for any issues.
