The QA Release Required option on the Product page of the Item Master specifies whether or not a batch must be released by QA prior to use in production. If QA release is required, the default QA status for a batch received into inventory is ‘Quarantine’. If QA release is not required, the default QA status for a batch received into inventory is ‘Conditional Release’. The 'QA Release Required' option is applied to both purchase order and shop order receipt transactions.
