What is the purpose of Assign Task under Action on approval?

When the Assign Task option is selected under Action on Approval, a task is created for the approver. The task acts as a reminder for the user to check the records submitted for their approval.

Once he/she approved/rejected the record, the same task will be created for the next approver in the process in the case of sequential approval.
