How to fix this error?

The DTP&v1& is not available as an active or a revised version. This can
be due to the following reasons:
You copied the process chain from the BI content. The DTP&v1& was not
copied correctly from the shadow version to the pseudo-D version or the
active version.
<DS:TRAN.RSOR>Copy the process chain again from the BI content.</>
Make sure that the Match (X) or Copy indicator is not selected.
You transported a process chain as active version. In this case, too,
the transported version of the DTP could not be copied to the active
version.
Transport the process chain again and analyze the transport log.

This error typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there are issues with the DTP configuration or its dependencies.
  Causes:
  
  Missing or Incomplete Configuration: The DTP may have missing settings or configurations that prevent it from being activated.
  Transport Issues: If the DTP was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), there may have been issues during the transport process.
  Dependencies Not Met: The DTP may depend on other objects (like InfoProviders, InfoObjects, or other DTPs) that are not activated or are in an inconsistent state.
  Version Conflicts: There may be version conflicts between the DTP and the underlying data model or InfoProviders.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to activate the DTP.
