  Manual Adjustment: If the automatically set values are not appropriate, you can manually adjust the values for the characteristic in the classification view of the object.
  Check Dependencies: If there are dependencies defined for the characteristics, review them to ensure they are set up correctly and are not causing unintended automatic assignments.
