Explanation: habentem is in singular, so it cannot refer to "canonibus". Maybe it refers to "designata", but more context is needed. Could you give the beginning of the sentence?

For example, if the main verb, on which the present participle "habentem" depends, is in a past tense, habentem would be in the past too. It would be "that had". It can also be translated as "having", but we need more context to see the best option.

With that sentence I would translate something like:
NAME, found apt and fit, with all other requirements established by the sacred canons...
You could put "that has all other requirements", or sum up and say simply "with"

So, the subject of "habentem" is the celebrant's name, and the direct object of habentem, what the celebrant has, are "aliaque requisita", the other requirements. (I have mistakenly added "all" because it sounded well to me, but really is just "other requeriments", without "all")

Other possibility: ...having the requirements established by...
Thank you. We need even more context. Habentem is in accusative, so there is some verb that forces it to be in the accusative. Wee need the whole paragraph. In Latin you can make very long sentences, and, to have a global idea, you must be able to see all the words, sometimes even of sentences that are before and after.
NAME habilem et idoneum, debito examine praededente, repertum, aliaque requsita, a Sacris Canonibus designata, habentem, inter Missae celebrationem [and then the messy handwriting location details]
