Hello.

In current version, you can define only categories in flat structure, not sub-categories in hierarchical structure.

Anyway, as for "problem is when i click on some category how i show the corresponding articles or documents on the right zone article viewer," you need to use "Category list" web part together with "Repeater" web part onto your page, and configure them as per example in http://devnet.kentico.com/docs/devguide/using_the_category_list_web_part.htm.
