Hi Pradeep,
Are you referring to the catalog item description?
It is not recommended to change that since that should be unique.
Instead you can populate the RITM short_description based on the logged in user company
have before insert BR on sc_req_item

- Create a custom data lookup table. It must extend the Data Lookup Matcher Rules
[dl_matcher]
table. - Add data lookup values to the data lookup table.
- Create a catalog data lookup definition record.
Please mark it correct and helpful if it solves your problem!!
