AP Doc rec doesn’t really have anything to do with IN Price Updates by itself.
I think of AP Doc Rec as a ‘Step 0’ in Accounts Payable workflow processing. All it does is attach a document and fill some fields out for you as you progress to the Bills and Adjustments entry screen.
Answer is on the Pricing tab of your AP Preferences. In the Pricing Tab (see attached) you can dictate what updates Vendor Prices.
We have tended to use ‘On AP Bill Release’ as our default setting for our client base due to inflationary price increases and some large discrepancies our clients have noticed from suppliers from PO Entry / Quoting to Bill receipt. But this setting can vary database to database.
