Sample use cases

Use case Prompt Result
A user wants to make sure they're requesting the right thing before submitting, since asking for the wrong item usually means delays or back-and-forth with support. Check the VPN Access catalog entry, then tell me which specific item under it I can actually request and whether it's currently available. Identifies VPN Access as a category, not something requestable directly, and confirms VPN Standard Access under it is available to request.
A user isn't sure what they're allowed to request and wants a clear overview of the available options, so they don't end up guessing or over-requesting. List the catalog entries under IT Services, then show me only the ones I can request, with each item's name and description. The user gets a list limited to the items they can actually request under IT Services, each with its name and description, so they can pick the right one without confusion.
