How to configure Flow Designer to set 'Stage' as 'Request Cancelled' and and 'State' as 'Cancelled'?

Hello, We have a requirement to configure a Flow Designer to set 'Stage' as 'Request Cancelled' and 'State' as 'Cancelled' for a RITM in ServiceNow, whenever an Approver Rejects the approval for RITM. We have configured our flow with Update request item action and setting Stage and State fields with these values. However , while testing Rejection Approval , we found that it is setting Stage correctly to "Request Cancelled", but setting State to random value e.g. On Hold, Pending etc.

Could anyone help us how do we set the state to "Cancelled" value upon Approval Rejection? 

NOTE: We want it to set automatically via Flow designer and not via any 'Cancel' button on form. It is not showing 'Cancel' option in current RITM state field. May be this is the reason Flow is also not getting the Cancel value. How can we display Cancel value under State drop down for our RITM? (We already have State value defined in Servicenow , but still is does not show under State drop down). Please find screenshots.
