My help files state that ApplyUpdates, CommitUpdates and CancelUpdates
are work in progress. I don't know what they are for, but the standard
procedure is, after setting the field values like you did:

> Product_IB_Datasource.Insert;
>
> Product_IB_Query.FieldByName('VENDOR_ID').AsInteger := ...
> ...

...to call Post on the Dataset:

> Product_IB_Query.Post;

If your transaction component has AutoCommit true, you can leave it
at that. Otherwise, you have to call Transaction.Commit or
Transaction.CommitRetaining.

In an exception handler, you could call Transaction.Rollback or
Transaction.RollbackRetaining
