• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message I10004 - Message &1 is not configured in the ALE distribution model for target &2 ?

  The SAP error message I10004 indicates that a specific message type (denoted as &1) is not configured in the Application Link Enabling (ALE) distribution model for the target system (denoted as &2). This error typically arises when there is an attempt to send data between systems in an SAP landscape, but the necessary configuration for the message type in the ALE model is missing.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Configuration: The message type you are trying to use is not defined in the ALE distribution model for the target system.
  Incorrect Target System: The target system may not be correctly set up to receive the specific message type.
  Transport Layer Issues: There may be issues with the transport layer or the logical system configuration.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the I10004 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check ALE Distribution Model:
  
  Go to transaction BD64 (ALE Distribution Model).
  Verify that the message type (&1) is included in the distribution model for the target system (&2).
  If it is not present, you will need to add it.
  
  
  
  Add Message Type:
  
  In the distribution model, select the target system and add the missing message type.
  Ensure that the appropriate logical systems are defined and that the message type is correctly configured for the intended data flow.
  
  
  
  Check Logical Systems:
  
  Ensure that both the sending and receiving systems are correctly defined as logical systems in transaction SALE (Logical System).
  Make sure that the logical systems are assigned to the correct clients.
  
  
  
  Check Message Type Configuration:
  
  Use transaction WE81 to check if the message type is defined in the system.
  If necessary, create or adjust the message type configuration in transaction WE82.
  
  
  
  Transport Layer:
  
  Ensure that the transport layer is correctly set up and that there are no issues with the transport routes between the systems.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the data transfer again to ensure that the error is resolved.
