Write redirect for Guided Tasks

First, you need to understand the structure of a redirect.

Structure of a Redirect Script

The redirect is comprised of two components:

• Command
• Argument placed in parentheses (), followed by semicolon ;

The script is similar to giving the user instructions on how to get to a specific screen, but it contains the instructions to automatically bring the user to the appropriate screen to complete a phase of the workflow a method of coordinating multi-step processes involving one or more users.

The following table lists the most commonly used commands and the requirements for appropriate arguments for each, along with examples:

Command	Argument	Example of Redirect Script	Redirects to...	Example phase to be completed
home	no arguments	home();	Home page	Announce the dates for grade entry to teachers from Home page's Announcements
