A task is a set of tool references grouped to facilitate a particular job. A sequence of tasks can be grouped into a workflow. By defining and grouping tasks into workflows, you can create a task-based user interface. The tool references grouped into a task can be standard MicroStation tools, custom tools, or a mixture of both types. The task's tool references can be grouped into standard MicroStation toolboxes, custom toolboxes, or a combination of both types. Therefore the interface will contain all the tools and toolboxes you need to complete your work, grouped the way you want them.

Tasks and workflows are created and managed on the Tasks tab on the Tools tab in the Customize dialog ( File > Settings > Configuration > Customize .)
