About this task
A Workpool is a team of users (with the same toolbox) who work together on a project. The composition of the workpool depends on the workflow and tasks.
You can send a project to a workpool (instead of a single user) for any task in the workflow. For example, if you want several writers to work on the data in a project at the same time, you could create a workpool of writers, and then assign the workpool to the Writing task in the workflow, in which case all writers in the workpool receive the project at the same time.
