A320 auto-brake selection

Hi All,

Wondering what the reason is for the difference in the timing of auto-brake selection between some sets of SOPs. On departure consensus seems to be after the flight control check (presumably due to spoilers being part of that check?) and on approach some manuals state it is selected during the descent whereas some others state it be selected with gear down. As I alluded I presume this is due to some kind of system logic or trigger which I haven't yet read about; is anyone able to shed any light on the specific reason?
