The producer object is available in client scripts of a record producer. True or false?

• A. False
• B. True
• C. Only in server scripts
• D. Not applicable

Answer: (A)

The main idea is that record producers operate through client-side input but the actual creation of the target record is handled on the server. The producer object is a server-side concept used in scripts that run on the server to manage or reference the record being produced. It isn’t exposed to client-side scripts, which is why trying to use a producer object inside a client script won’t work. In a record producer, you interact with the form using client APIs like g_form to read or set field values, and you trigger the server-side processing to create the record. If you need any server-side data or logic, you would use a GlideAjax call or a Script Include to run code on the server.
