In this work both experimental and theoretical aspects of the interaction of incommensurate structure with defects in (N(CH$_3$)$_4$)$_2$MeCl$_4$, Me = Cu, Zn, Fe crystals were studied. There were investigated three variants of this interaction depending on the ratio of the rates of the modulated structure and the rate of defects and impurities in the sample.
