How To Fix QS383 - No recipients found when sending the master record

QS383 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: QS - QM: Master data

• Message number: 383

• Message text: No recipients found when sending the master record

What causes this issue?

No recipients (recipient systems) were found in the customer
distribution model to which the object should be sent, when the
inspection methods/master inspection characteristics/code group
were/was sent using message type &v1&.
You can specify a recipient system when directly sending
<DS:TRAN.QL31>inspection methods</>, <DS:TRAN.QL21>master inspection
characteristics</> or <DS:TRAN.QL41>code group</>.
If you do not specify a system, then the system trys to determine one
or more recipients for message type &v1& using the customer
distribution model.
If the distribution model was not correctly maintained and not one
recipient is found, the inspection method/master inspection
characteristic/code group cannot be sent.
If this message appears while processing the inspection method/master
inspection characteristic, automatic distribution of the inspection
method/master inspection characteristic/code group using ALE was
activated in Customizing. The system then trys to determine one or more
recipients for message type &v1& using the customer-distribution model.

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

In this case, the inspection method/master inspection characteristic/
code group can also not be sent, if the distribution model was not
correctly maintained and no recipient is found.
An additional cause for this message can be that the inspection
method/master inspection characteristic/code group cannot be sent
because of a data filter, although a model view is maintained for the
specified message type in the customer-distribution model.

System Response

The system cannot send the inspection methods/master inspection
characteristics/code group.

How to fix this error?

Check whether the customer distribution model is properly maintained in
your system for message type &v1&, or deactivate the automatic
distribution of inspection methods/master inspection characteristics/
code group using ALE in Customizing.
