Use the Change Process Status transaction to set the status to "Active"

What causes this issue?

You have tried to activate a record manually in infotype
<ZK>Compensation Process</> (<ZH>0759</>).
Since activation triggers the generation or update of secondary
infotypes (<ZH>0008</>, <ZH>0015</>, <ZH>0257</> and <ZH>0761</>), you
are not allowed to set the status to <ZK>Active</> using for example the
transactions <ZK>HR Master Data</> or <ZK>Personnel Action</>.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
