    A little about Autoship Start Dates / Next Process Dates

    See this article (near the bottom) for a great explanation: Managing Associate's AutoShips in Corporate Admin – Help Center (directscale.com)

    When an autoship is processed, "Next Process Date" is calculated by adding the "Frequency" to the "StartDate", until it is in the future.

    For instance...if StartDate = Dec 25, 2020
    Autoship Frequency = "Monthly"

    and a Corp Admin user clicks "Process Autoship" on Sep 20, 2021.

    The NextProcessDate will be set as follows:
    Dec 25 + 1 month = Jan 25
    Jan 25 + 1 month = Feb 25
    Feb 25 + 1 month = Mar 25
    ...
    Aug 25 + 1 month = Sep 25

    Since this is in the FUTURE from the date it was processed, the addition stops. And the "Next Process Date" is set to Sep 25.
