Unable to populate variables using Flow designer

I have a requirement where i have to create one catalog item “A”which eventually be populating another existing catalog item “B”. The already existing ‘B’ catalog has 6 variables and the last variable is read only and is populated by concatenating the other 5 variables plus special characters. This has been achieved by creating onChange catalog client scripts. BUT
When I am trying to raise the request for B catalog via Flow action ( Submit catalog item request ) attached to Catalog A, the 6th read only variable is not getting populated (because onChange scripts are not getting triggered). Can anyone help me to populate the concatenated value in the read only variable of Catalog B using the Flow attached to Catalog A ?

On change client script doesnt work in this case as this is not interactive and you are not changing something on form level.

So the solution would be when you are populating variables for catalog item 'B' from 'A' , populate the last variable also in the same flow.

Hi @rambo1 , Thanks for the reply. 

But here the issue is I am unable to populate the last variable with the flow of 'A', reason being - there isn't any place where can I put the logic to concatenate the values of other variables.

Please see the attached screenshot. 

I need to populate the 'description' field with the combination of above values and this description filed is read only on the B catalog.

Hi @Tushar R ,

 

Try using onLoad client script for this requirement.
