in this piclist field if value None is selected then next time if i am going to update value there should be only Scheduled,Canceled value display
likewise if Scheduled is selected available option Dispatched,Canceled
if In Progress is selected show Completed,Cannot Complete
how can i achive that using flow
None
Scheduled
Dispatched
In Progress
Completed
Cannot Complete
Canceled
in this piclist field if value None is selected then next time if i am going to update value there should be only Scheduled,Canceled value display
likewise if Scheduled is selected available option Dispatched,Canceled
if In Progress is selected show Completed,Cannot Complete
how can i achive that using flow
If we are talking Flow Builder, then remember that a Decision point can have more than two outcomes:
Once you have defined each decision point criteria, then create a screen for each outcome,
And in each Screen set a different picklist value or list of values based on the decision point outcome / screen selected.
Then set the outcome to a variable and do a Record update.
A small note, you will need to be precise with your API naming conventions so that the flow reads easy, so for screens perhaps "scr_Status_New", choice value "Pick_Status_New" etc. Where you have multiple screens that are fundamentally similar, the number of variables and similarity of names can get confusing.
Hope that gets the thought process running.

i get it and its working
and is there any other way to do this like using auto launch flow
launch flow by PB and flow will check what is current selected value if it is "None" then set "Schedule" and "Canceled" to picklist and update
then whenever next time iam going to update same record it should show me only "Schedule" and "Canceled" values
is it possible
To my knowledge, PB cannot change the options in a picklist (at a meta-data level).
You could play with record types and have PB change the record type on save. Then for that record type, in the picklist values, select the values you want to display for that record type.
Your other alternative would be to do a VF page with controller that determines the Picklist options based on the current value.
