1. A first device comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory including computer program code;
wherein the at least one memory and the computer program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the first device to:
receive, in a radio resource control, RRC, connected mode, from a second device, a first message comprising a logical channel restriction for determining a target resource, the first message comprising a RRC release message, the logical channel restriction indicating each of resources associated with at least one logical channel corresponding to a configured grant, CG, based small data transmission, SDT, procedure;
in response to first data to be transmitted in a RRC inactive mode via a SDT corresponding to a first set of resources for a random access, RA, procedure and a second set of resources for a configured grant, CG, procedure, determine, at the first device, the target resource for at least a part of the first data based on the logical channel restriction on the SDT; and
transmit, in a RRC inactive mode, to the second device, at least the part of the first data on the target resource.
