  Adjust Customizing: If you find that the document category is not assigned to the target process, you may need to customize the settings to allow for the processing of that document type. This may involve:
  
  Adding the document category to the allowed list for the target process.
  Modifying the configuration to ensure that the system recognizes the relationship between the source document and the target process.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on the document categories and target processes relevant to your version of SAP.
