# How to use Tasks

### What are Tasks?

Tasks are essential for delegating work and tracking progress within the PIM. Each task can involve various entities, such as [products](https://docs.struct.com/fundamental-concepts/data-management), [categories](https://docs.struct.com/fundamental-concepts/data-model), variant groups, [variants](https://docs.struct.com/fundamental-concepts/data-management), assets, and [global list values](https://docs.struct.com/fundamental-concepts/global-lists). Multiple entities can be associated with a single task.

Tasks can be assigned to individual users or user groups. To access Tasks, use the pop-up window from the top right navigation menu or click 'Tasks' in the menu and select 'Go to task overview' for a detailed view.
