It is a binary file. I guess you fired just /navs/sys/appl/bin/record instead of file /navs/sys/appl/bin/record as fpmurphy suggested.
Please note file is a command and we didn't mean anything else.

Try to find out if record uses some environment variables. May be refer to its manual/document if available or ask your colleagues.

Meanwhile,
Check and see the current environment setting from which you are executing command manually with env

Plus, as other's suggested, update the cron entry as

Code:
10 06 * * * /navs/sys/appl/bin/record list > /bto/usr/appuser/record.txt 2>&1
