    customer distribution model)
    - when linking the IDoc with an application object

    - when using lists for master data distribution

    In ALE Customizing, check your configurations for the options Master
    data distribution->Lists, serializing and linking. Furthermore, check
    the configurations in your customer distribution model. If they are
    correct, maintain the missing object type in ALE Customizing, or
    consult your ALE administrator.
