Hi ,

Basically Worksets are those who let you to bundle the iviews and pages in the folder hierarchy for roles.They represent generic and reusable modules to be added to roles.And it may be used as for different roles.and role also can have multiple worksets.whereas content of workset contain user specific tasks.First you add workset to role then you have to define the navigation structure within the role.

You can add roles and worksets by creating folder hierarchies into it .So it means worksets can have worksets,pages,iviews.

Thanks,

Hi Vatsala,

Definition of Workset

A workset is usually assigned to a job role. It may also embed other smaller worksets. Tasks are the activities that are performed in the context of a workset. A task can be more or less complex. Some tasks may require a larger set of services, while others correspond to one single interaction step. Depending on this, the workspace design will based on portal pages filled with iViews either give an overview and will provide access to related services or it will directly offer in-place actions.

So far, the concept of worksets has been limited to stateless iView collection that are used to deploy and assign targeted content to portal users. In a second step, this concept can be generalized to support instantiated, state-full worksets that represent a current state of a working process. That is, iViews may no longer be stateless but communicate with each other, or depend on each other.

To have a easiler way of understanding the big picture..see the below url.
