When creating a module that opens a Record Producer, which link type should be used?

• A. url
• B. module
• C. script
• D. form

Answer: (A)

Opening a Record Producer from a module requires navigating to its dedicated page via a URL. A Record Producer is accessed through its own page in the catalog UI, and you load that page by pointing the module to the producer’s URL rather than trying to open it as a module, a script, or a plain form. Using the URL link type is the right approach because it directly loads the Record Producer interface (and then creates the record when submitted). The other options won’t load the Record Producer page: a module link would navigate to another module path, a script link runs code, and a form link opens a standard table form rather than the Record Producer page. So, configure the module as a URL and point it to the Record Producer’s page (for example, /record_producer.do?sys_id=... or the equivalent nav_to URI).
