# Tasks

Tasks in Struct PIM provide a central place for organizing and tracing work across the PIM. They help teams coordinate assignments, follow progress, and keep relevant products and other entities connected to the work that needs to be done.

Tasks can be assigned to individual users or user groups and can be include deadlines, comments, and attached entities. This makes it easier to keep track of responsibilities and ensure that work is followed through to completion.

```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
