Use the possible entries help (F4) to check whether a suitable object
type exists.
If there is no suitable entry, add the desired entry in Customizing.
Note the following:
The object type must correspond to the <DS:SIMG.OLQS_MS_O_1>Customizing
Table of Objects</> for multiple specifications.
If an object from this Customizing table has been specified in the
material-task list assignment and no customer number has been specified,
you must specify the object type that is maintained in the Customizing
table for the object.
If the material-task list assignment contains both the object and a
customer number, you can also specify an object type for customers from
the Customizing table for object types. This object type must have the
control "Use customer for classification" in the corresponding
Customizing table.
