    Summary

    This error indicates that the IDoc type configured in the ALE (Application Link Enabling) settings for the source system does not match the expected or defined IDoc type.

    • Transport or configuration inconsistencies where the IDoc type was changed but not updated in the ALE model.
    • User error during setup of the ALE model or partner profiles, such as selecting the wrong message type or IDoc type.
