To see everything working together, perform this exact sequence:

Purchase: Open the Purchase app. Select a vendor/Farmer. Add "Test Turmeric" and click Confirm Order.
Receipt: Click the Receive Products button in the top right of the Purchase Order.
Create Lot: On the receipt line for Turmeric, you cannot validate yet. Click the List icon (Options/Details) on the right side of the product line.

QC Transfer: Open the Inventory app > Operations > Transfers. Create a new internal transfer.
Set the Source Location as WH/Stock (where the goods just arrived) and the Destination Location to QC Hold.
Add the Product, select LOT-001, and Validate.
