There are many ways to you can achieve this:
- Create a common test case and then call it in your main test cases. Please refer to sample WebUI project in Katalon Studio for this solution.
- Create a custom keyword and then use it as well:https://docs.katalon.com/display/KD/Define+custom+keywords

Hope it helps.

Hi Vinh,
I have corrected the mistake , pls ignore the previous comment.
Now performing same steps as provided in sample project however still not able to achieve this.
I am experiencing browser is opening multiple time in test and hence its not able to find the object.

Refer below screen shot,
