Add variables to catalog task from multiple catalog items

[Dazler]

Hi,

Workflow editor made it easy to add variables from multiple catalog items to a single catalog task activity by using the slush bucket, but in flow designer when creating a catalog task you have to select only one catalog item.  This makes it difficult to create a single Flow for multiple catalog items.

I know that variables sets can be used, but many of our forms have different fields and are needed to be shown on the catalog task for the assigned to user to see.

This makes it difficult to truly maintain.

Has anyone figured a way to add the variables to the create catalog task for multiple catalog items in Flow Designer?

@Dazler have you been able to figure out the solution? I am having the same situation where I need to create a catalog task from a different catalog item. My example is that the List Collector field is not supported in the 'Submit Catalog item' action in the flow designer, so I created a new catalog item to replace the List Collector field with a Multi-line text field, however, my original flow is pointing to the previous Catalog item template. Everything remains the same, and I do not want to duplicate the flow just for that one field.
