What is the Accrued Purchase Receipts Account?

The Accrued Purchase Receipts account is created by Acctivate as a purchase suspense account

The Accrued Purchase Receipts account is created by Acctivate as a purchase suspense account. When you post an inventory receipt, Acctivate will utilize the Inventory and Purchases GL account specified on the Warehouse. Creating the Vendor Bill reconciles the balance in the Purchases account into Accounts Payable.

Example: To record the receipt of inventory, followed by Purchase Invoice being entered.
