If you're having them add this record from a button on their dashboard, you can make two buttons using the api_GenAddRecordForm format and then declare a specific form using "&dfid=X", replacing x with the form ID you want the user to land on.

    Hi, I was able to use this to set up 2 buttons however, since I have one of the forms as the default for each role, the button use does not override that.  How can the buttons be set to supersede what is assigned to a particular role?

      The '&dfid=X' declaration in the url is what overrides the default.  Make sure that the value in X corresponds to the ID of the form that you're wanting the button to point to.
