Closing` value is set to `15` :guilabel:`Days`, then the subscription will close on the 16th of
that month if payment is not received.
- :guilabel:`Align to Period Start`: optionally force new and recurring subscription renewal dates
under this plan to the first day of what is defined in the :guilabel:`Billing Period`.
- :guilabel:`Align to Period Start`: sets new and recurring subscription plans to bill on the first
day of the next :guilabel:`Billing Period`. When a subscription plan is purchased in the middle
of a billing period, the invoice shows a reduced cost.
.. example::
On the 15th of July, a customer purchases a monthly subscription for a streaming service.
Selecting :guilabel:`Align to Period Start` for this recurring plan ensures that all
subscriptions are billed on the 1st of each month. Their subscription begins as soon as
payment is confirmed. The quotation shows the full cost of the subscription for July 1 - 31,
but the invoice shows an adjusted cost for July 15 - 31. On the 1st of August, the customer is
charged the full price for the month's subscription.
- :guilabel:`Company`: optional assignment, if the database has :doc:`Multi-company
<../general/companies/multi_company>` functionality enabled. Assigning this value will make the
recurring plan available for that company's location, specifically.
