What is the origin of "as per" and is it outdated to use it ?

Hi,
'as per'
definition: according to
example: 'as per your instructions'
origin: 'per' originates from Latin, 'as per' dates back to 1782
I don't think it is old fashioned although it is used in academic writing and journalism more than in spoken language.
