Hi @pramod pandey1, As per my knowledge, you need to create a variable on catalog item and then you can hide / show it on RITM / SCTASK as per the use case. Unless you have the variable (question) created in catalog item, you cannot show it to the user nor user can input.

 

May I know the sort of question / input you would need from user? is it outside the service catalog? You can also trigger an event to perform some script actions.

 

Regards,

Sunil

Pramod , you can create sub flows separately as per your need , and you can mapped using "Do the following in parallel" .
Refer this link   Do the following in parallel flow logic 

 

Please mark it as helpful , if your query is resolved .

@SunilKumar_P  I created subflow for 5 parallel task as you mentioned and after activating it same i have attached it to main flow.

 

But when i trigger catalog item till main flow part it is working correctly as subflow logic start i am getting error,

I think error is at input output section but i am not sure.

Hi @pramod pandey1, have you created an input in subflow? The input should be of refernce type and referencing to the sc_req_item table and then in the mainflow, you need to configure (drag & drop) requested item into the subflow input.
