*To do these business operations...*	*Use these functions*
Set up regular customer charges like rent and monthy fees in the special "Recurring Charges" configuration window. When you create a recurring charge, you indicate whether it is taxable and you associate the charge with the sales income accounts to which you want the charge to post. (You can also create batches of recurring charges in the Sales/Invoices window. Select any existing batch you plan to post periodically, right-click, and choose "Make recurring" from the right-click menu.)	Receivables Configure Recurring Charges
Certain regular charges in Receivables often apply to a large number of customers: for example, leases, subscriptions, and other fees that you periodically assess. Associate each charge with the appropriate customers. Any number of regular, periodic charges can be assigned to a customer.	Receivables Configure Customers
