The error shows that the transformation is inactive. Have you checked that in development system? Is it active without any errors?
There will be an expand button for each line in your error message which will give some additional information on the objects. Could you please check that as well.
If this doesn't help, then capture the failed transformation and the dependent objects in another TR and transport the same.
The reason for the failure should be different and its not about object direct entry or transformation because logically, both refers to the same object.
