## Abstract

Embodiments herein relate to a method performed by a radio network node (12) for handling transmission of data from a wireless device (10) in a wireless communication network (1). The radio network node (12) determines a delay value for a transmission of data from the wireless device (10) based on a transmission type of data from the wireless device (10) or a capability of the wireless device (10). The capability is related to a processing time for processing received data from the radio network node (12), or for processing data for transmission to the radio network node. The radio network node further transmits an indication, to the wireless device (10), which indication indicates the determined delay value.
