Assessment Reasoning
This is a new capability aimed at syncing transaction categories between Dataverse and Dynamics 365 Finance for Project Operations. Admin impact is moderate as admins may review data schemas and integration mappings, but no immediate action is required. End-user visibility is minimal since it primarily affects backend categorization and financial consistency. Urgency is low because the feature is optional and no configuration work is mandated at this stage.
