Data between the two processes can be passed using the in/out parameters other than that there is no way to display data in called process from the caller process.
Maybe you need to consider using collapsed subprocess instead.

You might need a step before going to back to main task. For example a script task that will add the data from the subprocess to a list. That list can then be used to display data in the main task.

Here is an example of how the process can look like.

Bassam Al-Sarori‌ Thank you for the reply. I'm confused that how can i get the process 1 data in script task? is there any documentation for the script task which suits my scenario.

You can use a script task to retrieve variables from the subprocess and add them to the parent table variable. See Script task | Alfresco Documentation

Make sure to set beans.whitelisting.enabled=false (you can also whitelist only specific beans see Spring Beans | Alfresco Documentation )

You may also need to whitelist javascript in activiti/whitelisted-scripts.conf to allow javascript execution.

var ObjectMapper = com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.ObjectMapper;
var objectMapper = new ObjectMapper();
