E-UPG: "The process [process name] has category that is not processed in server [process scheduler] (65,279)" (Doc ID 1327015.1)

Goal

After upgrading to PeopleTools 8.50 or 8.51

The following error occurs when we try to run any process using PeopleTools -> Process Scheduler -> System Process Requests. (Example Process: System Audit)
The process SYSAUDIT has category that is not processed in server PSUNX (65,279)

The system detects that the process with the designated server is currently defined to not initiate requests with the process' category. Please choose another server to schedule this process. Alternately, you can specify a blank ServerName to allow the scheduler determine the available server the process can be initiated.

If a PRCSCATEGORY in PS_PRCSDEFN is a required field, the upgrade script should have been provided for updating with the default values. There are records with PRCSCATEGORY as blank in PS_PRCSDEFN.

=== ODM Question ===

Why does a blank PRCSCATEGORY in PS_PRCSDEFN work in 8.49 and below but not in 8.50 and 8.51?
