Yes, B is the correct answer. That also has been checked on ServiceNow Instance.  Thanks-

However if right click on the banner and Save. You will remain on the form. It is tried and tested.

Hi @akhileshv ,

 

B is the correct answer.

'Insert' will create a duplicate record of the current record and update save the changes of the current record. Both operations will take you back to the list view.

 

Thanks,
