An option on I/C setup to prevent the PO module from changing the vendor cost

Definitely, yes. A check-box in PO Setup preventing this is all we would need. Again, a important feature Accpac overlooked.
Here's a trick though in the meantime: Enter your fixed costs in "Vendor Contract Costs"; yes it's yet ANOTHER window to open but at least it doesn't get changed.
A work around would be to receive the PO with the current Vendor Cost from Vendor details and then edit the PO Invoice entry for the correct Price. This then creates a Price Adjustment to the Item History when End of Day is Run but doesn't update the Vendor Details for Vendor Cost. The PO Invoice entry would be done separately from the PO Receipt entry.
