The best thing to do is to bill for the previous month's usage I would think, that way it's a full month. A problem I would foresee with invoicing as new usage comes in is the customer would have 30 usage invoices (with presumably very small individual amounts) if you imported daily and they used their service daily. - Shawn ---------------------------------- Shawn D.
