    The SAP error message WZRE_ALE_MONITOR2016 Deviations (Segment &1) typically appears in the context of ALE (Application Link Enabling) monitoring and IDoc processing. Here's a detailed explanation of the cause, solution, and related information:


    1. Cause

    • WZRE_ALE_MONITOR2016 is an informational or warning message generated by the ALE Monitor (transaction WE02, WE05, or WE19) or during the processing of IDocs.
    • The message indicates that there are deviations or inconsistencies in a particular segment of an IDoc.
    • The placeholder &1 is replaced by the name of the IDoc segment where the deviation was detected.
    • Deviations can be caused by:
      • Missing mandatory fields in the segment.
      • Incorrect or unexpected data format.
      • Segment data not conforming to the expected structure defined in the IDoc type.
      • Custom enhancements or user exits that modify segment data incorrectly.
      • Version mismatches between sender and receiver IDoc types.

    2. Solution

    • Analyze the IDoc segment mentioned in the message:

      • Use transaction WE02 or WE05 to display the IDoc and locate the segment indicated by &1.
      • Check the data in the segment for missing or incorrect fields.
    • Check the IDoc segment definition:

      • Use transaction WE31 to review the segment structure.
      • Verify that the segment data complies with the definition.
    • Validate the partner profiles and message types:

      • Use transaction WE20 to check the partner profiles and ensure the correct message type and IDoc type are assigned.
    • Check for custom code or user exits:

      • Review any enhancements or user exits that might be modifying the segment data.
      • Debug or log the processing to identify where the deviation occurs.
    • Reprocess or correct the IDoc:

      • If the IDoc is in error status, correct the data and reprocess it using BD87 or manually reprocess in WE19.
    • Synchronize IDoc versions:
