For example, John creates *Azure sub 01* on 5 March and *Azure sub 02* on 10 March. The invoice for *Azure sub 01* will have charges from the fifth day of a month to the fourth day of next month. The invoice for *Azure sub 02* will have charges from the tenth day of a month to the ninth day of next month. The invoices for all Azure subscriptions are normally generated on the day of the month that the account was created but can be up to two days later. In this example, if John created his account on 2 February, the invoices for both *Azure sub 01* and *Azure sub 02* will normally be generated on the second day of each month. However, it could be up to two days later.
