  • What causes this issue?

    The ALE distribution unit has been received in the target system.
    Normally the IDocs of the objects in the ALE distribution unit are
    identified during this process.
    For &V1& objects, however, no IDoc was identified.

    System Response

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

    How to fix this error?

    If necessary, you must reprocess the IDocs in the source system so that
    they are transferred to the target system. You have the following
    options:
    In the source system choose <LS>Logistics -> Central Functions ->
    Product Data Replication -> ALE Distribution Unit ->
    <DS:TRAN.UPS02>Maintain</></>
    Choose <LS>Tools -> ALE -> ALE Administration -> Monitoring ->
    <DS:TRAN.BD87>Status Monitor</></>.
    If these activities do not help, then you can still check whether there
    is an <DS:TRAN.SM58>RFC Problem</> in the source system.
    Call the <LS>Identify IDocs</> function until all IDocs are available.
