@Aakhiil 

why to update the RITM in GET Catalog variables step?

you can use update record action and set the short_description like this

No scripting required; just drag and drop the Pill

Hi @Ankur Bawiskar 
Thanks for your response.
Here I am unable get/pill the variables on update record action.(Not sure item is created through cat builder ) Can I go with this script 

var gr = new GlideRecord('sc_req_item');
gr.addQuery('request',current.request);
gr.query();
while(gr.next())
{
gr.short_description = current.request_type;
gr.update();
}
